As you know, the death of my sister-in-law, Lori, hit me very hard. I feel as though I am emerging from a very dark period where there was always daytime but never sunlight.

As part of my re-emergence into the real world,  I have picked up the keyboard once more and am starting to write again.

I confess, it feels good to be back at it again. I have resumed work on a book I had started last year. It is a piece of women’s fiction that takes place in my home state of Maryland.  It’s a romance, it’s a mystery, it’s historically-based.  My agent is very excited about the project and is in a flurry of phone calls to editors. As a faithful newsletter subscriber, you will be the first to know if and when it sells.
