Blog postNow this is an interesting topic. What is the oddest character you have ever dreamed up, and how did they fit into a story?
First, I had to figure out what made a character odd? Their appearance, their occupation, their hobby, did they come from space? I write contemporary but with a touch of paranormal. My WIP has a dog that may have a paranormal element. My Hawkins Ranch series has a grove of trees where the spirits of Native Americans reside and talk to the owners of the ranch. I decide -

Blog postWhat unique situations have occurred in the writing process of any of your novels? Things where what you planned changed or the direction you thought the story was on deviated or transmuted?
This is a challenging topic. So many of my stories changed directions in the writing. Maybe the one that changed the most was Missing - Luke’s Story. Dr. Allie Parsons is a big city New York doctor with personal and family challenges she preferred not to face. It started out she was going to make a qui -

Blog postLast week I discussed Breast Cancer. This week I thought I’d talk about the diagnosis and treatment.The two things women should be doing is a monthly self breast check for any lumps or changes. Always remember to go under the arm and check the lymph nodes in the armpit. Diagnostic mammography is an x-ray that uses small doses of radiation to make an image of the breast. It is used to follow up on abnormal results of a screening mammography or a clinical breast exam. Mammography can also be used

Blog postOctober is Breast Cancer Month. Almost everyone knows someone who has, or has had, cancer. Or maybe it’s you, and you’re a survivor. Do you “Run for the Cure?” Do you donate to Breast Cancer this month? No, I’m not hustling for donations, but I like to call attention to this month.

Blog postRhobin’s topic for this month is another interesting one.In designing your plots what do you rely on most: personal experience, imagination, or research? For me, it’s mostly a combination of all three. A Cruise to Remember I wrote after I had taken my second cruise. The setting was the cruise ship, the various islands we stopped at and even some of the stores. I researched amnesia and Interpol. The actual plot was my imagination.
Hunted, the first book in my Hawkins’ Ranch series started w -
Blog postAs a writer I’m sure when someone introduces you as a writer you’ve heard people say, “I could write a write book.”But do they ever follow through? Maybe a first paragraph, but it’s a lot harder than people think.Non-writers make excuses. Writers write.
When did you decide to write? How badly do you want it? What will you give up for it?I always wrote starting in elementary school. I wrote paragraphs, descriptions, plots, you name it.But while I’d jot down a scene I went into nursing, work -

Blog postWhat a fun topic this month. We’re asked to post an excerpt from one of our books dealing with travel and or vacation. Thanks, Rhobin.I’ve chosen one of my back-list books, A Cruise to Remember. and it's still available on Amazon and Kobo. Since I write romantic suspense, I usually have murder and mystery in my books. So, even though my excerpt is based on a cruise through the Caribbean, it has t include mystery and suspense. It was a fun book to write and I wrote it just after we had taken

Blog postA few years ago, Dee S. Knight began writing, making getting up in the morning fun. During the day, her characters killed people, fell in love, became drunk with power, or sober with responsibility. And they had sex, lots of sex. Writing was so much fun Dee decided to keep at it. That's how she spends her days. Her nights? Well, she's lucky that her dream man, childhood sweetheart, and long-time hubby are all the same guy, and nights are their secret. For romance ranging from sweet to historical

Blog postI know I missed last weeks post. I was at the Romance Writers of America National conference.We stayed at a hotel on Time Square. Here’s a view from our window.
On Sunday, before conference started, we went to a show and saw Cher. I’m not a Cher fan. I like the music but sometimes she’s a little over the top. However, the show was great. It showed Cher’s life and the challenges she faced and how she survived and changed to meet the times. The music was awesome. It was fast paced and kept y
