The Power of the Blog
Another great signing last night, at a Barnes and Noble here in Omaha. I'm here to tell you, my readers are the greatest! As for the power of a blog--you'll recall that I wrote about the pleasures of Vicks vapor rub yesterday. 🙂 Well, as the signing was about to...
Happy Birthday Amanda Peterson!
It's my good friend Amanda's birthday today! Best wishes from a hotel room in Omaha, Nebraska, Amanda-girl!Yesterday, in transit from Salt Lake City, I had another road adventure. My water bottle came open in my purse--on the plane--and soaked everything--including...
On My Way
In a couple of hours, I'll be leaving Salt Lake City, a beautiful town full of friendly people, for Omaha. This morning, I woke up to a skiff of snow, and I hear it's cold up home in Spokane, too. It would seem we're skipping fall altogether!My friend and associate...
Sugar House
What a terrific group of readers I met last night at the Barnes and Noble in the Sugar House section of Salt Lake City! I had way too much fun chatting with you all--and it's lovely to get to know you in person. My thanks to all of you for turning out and asking...
I’m in Salt Lake City
I'm on TV in a couple of hours, so I should be spiffing myself up. However, I wanted to write this blog and my morning pages first, so I'm sitting at my laptop. (I need to find an Apple store because this thing keeps shutting down for no apparent reason.)My good...
Busy Day Ahead
I have a really busy day ahead--lots of TV and radio, and a signing tonight. So far, not one ATC trader has turned up along the way, though. (Except for my future son-in-law, Jeremy, who brought 3 fabulous cards to swap when I was in LA!) I'll have cards along...

Leaving LA
Heading for Oklahoma City! I'm excited--I've never been to OK, City--and I always love going to a new place. In LA, I got to spend a lot of time with daughter, Wendy, and Jeremy, her future husband. Last night we had seafood at the BEST place--it's called the Galley...
At LAST!!!!
I'm back! I've had the hardest time a) getting online and b) getting to this blog!! In Vegas, my last stop, I finally schlepped the computer to the Apple Store in Fashion Show Mall and had a 'genius' appointment--with a genius named Randy. 🙂 He showed me how to...
On My Way
I'm off on my Rustler Tour today--first stop, Portland, Oregon.Since I'm running around doing last minute stuff, I will keep this short.The sun is just peeking over the eastern hills as I write this, and Bernice, the Yorkie, who always seems to know when I'm going...
It’s a Wrap
Today, and it seems like a wholesale miracle, I will finish "The Bridegroom". I'm of two minds about this, as I explained yesterday. Naturally, I get very deeply involved in my books, and my characters are Real People to me. So while I have a tremendous sense of...
Good-byes and Hellos
I will soon be finished with "The Bridegroom", and I must confess, that makes me a little blue. I just hate saying good-bye to characters I've grown to love and admire; after all, Lydia and Gideon and I have been through thick and thin together.Sure, there will be the...
