Peek-behind-the-curtain time! I've been traveling on a literary tour of the United Kingdom, visiting Edinburgh and the Lake District. One of the highlights has been visiting the Bronte Parsonage museum walking the Yorkshire Moors. #peekbehindthecurtain #literarytravel #feedingthecreativesoul

One of the things that I love about writing is the research. In August I did a tour of the Kentucky Castle. I'm excited to share that I'm almost halfway through my next Emily Monroe mystery, Caper at the Castle. #PeekBehindTheCurtain #MysteryFans #writinglife #onsiteresearch

Did some puzzling today. I couldn't resist this one from Kingdom of Threads. I love Bartholomew, and the puzzle came in a beautiful book-shaped box. Their bookish goods are hard to pass up. Now I just need book 2 to read! #bookishlife #fantasypuzzle #fantasyreads #writinglife

My end of month review is of "The Excitements" by C. J. Wray. It is a brilliant and funny caper style romp told in a dual timeline between the past and the present. I truly loved this one! #caperadventure #historicalintrigue #blogbookreview #missmarpleenergy #capermysterybooksky

July was a very busy month this year. We spent more time away than we did home. We traveled to visit our son in NYC. It was our first visit to the Big Apple & we crammed in a lot. Here's part one. Next week I'll continue with the conclusion of our trip. #PeekBehindTheCurtain #writerlife

Now summer's in full swing, I'm officially in my traveling, arting, light gardening, whimsical loafing phase of the year. So, my peek-behind-the-curtains will be glimpses of these things as I enjoy all of the above before getting into the thick of edits soon. Enjoy! #summerantics #writerinspiration

So, I know that normally I would post a fun Friday meme. But I saw this sweet, sweet story about a crow in my Lucy Score newsletter and wanted to share it instead. I love crows! They are such cool birds. www.sunnyskyz.com/good-news/62...

Woman Who Helped Rescue an Injured Crow Is Now Receiving Unexpected Gifts From the Sky

One act of kindness toward a trapped crow turned into an extraordinary friendship that continues to brighten one woman's mornings.

Visited my local Farmer's Market today and I'm pretty stoked about my haul. The farmer even let me keep the basket for the lettuce so it wouldn't bruise getting it home. I also couldn't resist the no-bake cookies a friend was selling. #whitleycountyfarmersmarket #summerdays☀️
