#VOTMNews: Heart Track Release Set for December 18

After a busy sprint to the finish, I can now say for sure that Heart Track will become available on December 18, both in Kindle and Print formats. This episode will present us with yet another turning point in Jane’s life, one where she will face her personal past to undertake the hardest track of […]

#VOTMNews: Next Two Episodes of Tracking Jane Closer to Release

I am happy to report that this week has yielded some nice progress for the next two Tracking Jane episodes, Heart Track and Wounded Honor. First, I am really pleased with the feedback I’ve received from my Heart Track Beta readers. They’ve submitted a wealth of useful inputs, most of which I have incorporated. This […]

What Do Tracking Jane and #NaNoWriMo Have in Common?

For the last two years I’ve skipped NaNoWriMo. It’s not because I’m opposed to having a National November Writing Month, and certainly I don’t disdain writing fifty thousand words in thirty days. It’s just a matter that I write at my own pace, and if I happen to be editing in November, or if I […]

#SaturdayScenes: Missing Shadow, a Tracking Jane Short Story

What’s worst? A gal that walks ungainly and unsteady on prosthetic legs, or a dog that can’t track reliably? Hard to answer. As I lean down to get a sense of whether my dog, Shady, stands ready to take on her assignment, the undercover police officers behind me are wondering, too. “Are we good?” one […]

#SaturdayScenes: Decisive Moment, The Wedding Photographer

When I tell people—even photographers—that I do weddings, I often get looks and reactions suggesting I’m in need of an emergency brain transplant. That in and of itself stands as acknowledgement of how challenging and—in some ways—undesirable taking on a wedding can be. All the more reason why I scratch my head as to how […]

#VoTMNews: Quantum Law Humming Right Along

The feedback from Beta readers has started to come in for Quantum Law, and so far it doesn’t look like I made too much of a mess. Oh, there are always lots of little and not so minor things to fix, but I’m really encouraged that readers seem to be having a good time with […]
