The Best Laid Plans…
NC Book Festival 2020, Raleigh, North Carolina “The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry.” A quote from “The Mouse” by Robert Burns.

On the Porch with Ruth Akright
I’m here at my creek side café with the wonderful Ruth Akright. It was wonderful to meet you in person. I enjoyed the writers retreat in Murfreesboro. It was a fantastic reprieve from the hurricane.

We had some worry during the storm. The news kept saying it was going to be a bad one, originally a category 4. My oldest son’s home and family were in the … Continue reading Tired but Still Standing
Louise Penny
I’m a new fan. As usual I’m late for the dance and I don’t know the latest steps but the music moves me, in this case, the music is the writing of Canadian crime writer Louise Penny. I started with the lovely and lyrical novel, The Beautiful Mystery set in a monastery outside Quebec. With the murder of a monk and the beautiful mystery of … Continue reading Louise Penny
