I have
a bad case of the Blues today. Better than last night around midnight, but still
feeling sad. In my struggle to avoid a gloomy day, I searched my memory for a happier time.
A conversation held at a Malice Domestic Conference sprang to mind. A guy who happened to be another cozy mystery writer said,
“My whole day goes better if I write.”
“Really?”
I said, “So does mine.” The other authors gathered with us agreed.
So
today, in pursuit of a lighter heart, I sat my fine broad butt in the chair
in front of my computer and continued working on my newest project. This cozy mystery has the working title of CORPSE IN THE SAGEBRUSH. It’s set in the Oklahoma
Panhandle a little farther west than my just published suspense novel MURDER AT THE EDGE
OF NOWHERE.

These
two books are very different, but my therapy will be the same: Telling a story
from my heart.
Here’s
wishing all my readers and fellow authors that their day be filled with joy.
Cheers,
