Thank you...

On this Memorial Day, I reflect on the life of my grandfather. At 27 years old, he gave his life in Italy serving the infantry.

His bravery and sacrifice remain an inspiration to me and to my writing of historical fiction.

I wish I knew him.

So... yes, I'm working on the new book. Hooray! (That's the good news).

The bad news is that I've had German and Irish accents in my head for months like a crazy, haunted person.

Just back from a whirlwind trip, including a visit to an Irish lighthouse and a German submarine! What do these two have in common? You'll have to wait until my next book to find out! Suffice it to say, nothing beats hands-on research!

In Carrickfergus, County Antrim in the North of Ireland researching the next book and enjoying a pot of tea with a whopping fish and chips with mushy peas—life is good!

I've unplugged from my daily life, dashed out to a lovely desert oasis, kindly supplied by two of my dearest friends, and submerged myself in research and writing for my next book!

Thanks, family, for letting me disappear for a few days!

It took a couple weeks for me to come down from the clouds, but I want to give a big shout out to the standing-room-only crowd that showed up at the Book Carnival on St. Paddy's day to hear about Jingle Boys. So grateful to you all!
