Thirty-five years ago I embroidered this welcome sign and had it framed. It’s been in every home I’ve ever called my own – single, first, and then married. Right now it hangs in the foyer of my house and it’s the first thing you can see when you come through the front door.

Two years ago I discovered the absolute delishishness of cooking an entire chicken in the crockpot. No fuss. No muss. Just place a whole chicken in the pot, cover it with the seasons of your choosing ( no water, nothing else), and cook it for 8-10 hours.
When it’s done the chicken is the most succulent meat you will ever eat. It literally falls off the bone – no cutting involved!
Delish!

#coverreveal for the new Louise Stevens #cozymystery DIAMONDS, DUNES, & DEATH
I’m so stoked today to help one of my favorite authors, LOUISE STEVENS, reveal the cover to her upcoming Port Sunset mystery DIAMONDS, DUNES, & DEATH.
Ready?
Ta daaaaaaahhh
Corgis and champagne? Yes, please!!!
Here’s a little about the story….
I’m Millie Wentworth and I never thought I’d be involved in another murder, but here I am smack dab in the middle of a crime wave at the swanky resort where I’m Assistant General Manager. It started with a major diamond heist and ended with a dead body on the beach.
When one of my grandmother Lulu’s group of fun-loving septuagenarian friends is a prime suspect it’s time for Lulu’s Crew, Spud the corgi, and me to get sleuthing and uncover the real criminals.
And because dodging mobsters, international jewel thieves, and solving crimes isn’t stressful enough, my hypercritical parents are in town too. My mother doesn’t approve of Lulu and me in the best of times, and these are decidedly not the best of times. Plus she’s already planning my imaginary wedding to my kinda-sorta boyfriend Scott.
All I need to do is catch a murderer plus a jewel thief and survive my parents’ visit. No problem, right?

New #kindleVella episodes coming your way 3 times a week, starting today!
The outpouring of love and support I’ve received from my Kindle Vella story THE JANE AUSTEN MURDERS has prompted me to start putting up 3 episodes/chapters per week, starting today.
The first three chapters are free to read, the rest available for a small token fee from Amazon.
Are you a Kindle Vella reader?
Here’s the link to the Jane Austen Murders so you can start, or just continue with the story.
Homicide Detective Elizabeth Bennett and senior partner Frank Churchill are called to Longbourne College when the body of student Charlotte Lucas is found bludgeoned to death. Charlotte, a scholarship student had a healthy supply of designer clothes, jewelry, and a safe deposit box loaded with cash. Where did she get them? Charlotte had a very antagonistic relationship with her English professor, Dr. Darcy, and he soon becomes the primary suspect. But did he do it?
And I just found out today that the Jane Austen Murders has been named a TOP FAVE by kindle vella readers! That little gold crown above the cover is everything!!! LOL
And I have a few other stories also on Vella you might want to try:
Someone is murdering teenage girls in Washington, DC. The FBI’s special division, the SPCD – the Sexual Predators of Children – has been working the case for the past 6 months. When a Senator’s daughter goes missing, the team, led by Tucker Petrie, has to call on retired profiler – and his past partner – Kella O’Brian. Reluctantly, she rejoins the team and they search for a link to the girls who have been abducted, then killed.
A cheating husband. A group of widows. A hospital bed. A priest. What do they all have in common? Death.

Just one of many physical affirmations I have around my office to keep me going when the imposter syndrome thoughts pervade my brain…
