  • When I first started writing, I gravitated toward the straight-up romance genre. Simplified, what I mean by “straight-up” is your typical formula romance that goes something like this: While that’s still my primary trope, one that I enjoy both reading and writing, I occasionally have the desire to add something else to the basic formula.…

    Thanksgiving and… DOGS

    It’s been a couple of years since my novella, Thanksgiving at Canine Corral was published, but every time the holiday approaches, I find myself rereading and enjoying it.
