Rumped Warbler - what a prosaic name for this splendid fellow who obligingly posed for the camera. #Birds

In Stolen Lives, “Yarrow has spun a fascinating tale...As the story progressed, the way the different characters' fates were linked led to a truly sweeping family epic.“ —Reader Views books2read.com/u/38O0JV #BookSky #Books #SuspenseFiction #HistoricalFiction

I highly recommend this organization of crime writers that has supported recognition of diverse writers and the mastery of craft on many levels since being founded by Sarah Peretsky in the ‘80s. #writingcommunity #Booksky 📚💙 #books www.sistersincrime.org/page/BriefHi...

"Readers seeking solid urban fiction settings and the spunky but struggling character of a young adult who changes immensely through her experiences and choices will find Sandstorm a worthy and intriguing journey" - D.

This book was one of my inspirations for writing "Zahara and the Lost Books of Light." Especially the scene where exiles walk by the river, reciting the text of banned books they have memorized in order to preserve them. #Booksky 💙📚 #writingcommunity #books #histfic #historicalfiction

More encouraging words from the BlackList have raised my hopes for a film adaptation of Sandstorm: “The book has an electric, stay-up-late-to-finish energy, which bodes well for its commercial prospects.” #Booksky 💙📚

These poems have such a strong sense of place and evocative texture that they transcend the page and take the reader directly into Bhaswati Ghosh's image-filled world. A more detailed review to follow after I have finished savoring each one. In the US order from www.coppercoin.co.in/product-page...

I love Seattle and the Pacific NW - the rainy days keep us green and stimulate the introspection this writer needs. Share a pic of your own environment and tell us why you thrive there.

Cato is my writing helper, always by my side. And just like me, he loves to read. His only complaint is the lack of cat characters in my books. Must remedy that soon.
