For years, I've read the book reviews on Big Al's Books and Pals blog. It all began one day years ago when I was avoiding work by surfing the 'net and found a polite but honest review of a spectacularly bad book. Not all books are gems, however, the author of the book began arguing with the reviewer in the comments. Soon other people chimed in with their opinions and the whole conversation got so hilariously awful that Big Al had to turn the comments off.
From that moment, I knew I wanted a review from one of the Pals.
I have since submitted every one of my novels to the site for review, always with a polite but clever note about the book and/or myself. That's seven books.
Turns out, seventh time is a charm. On Friday, I discovered a new review on Amazon for MURDER BYTES. It was from Big Al's Books and Pals! It was a good review! Five stars!
Here is the link:

Color me over the moon. And a Friday review means it's the first one on the blog site until Monday.

It's almost here!
First of all, the latest book will be out and available in a mere 10 days! It is the 5th and final Peri Minneopa Mystery.
In this fifth and final installment of the Peri Minneopa Mysteries, Peri has had enough. She’s closing her business, marrying her detective boyfriend, and settling down to a life of ease–until her brother shows up, accused of a murder he swears he didn’t commit. Now she’s back in the thick of things, investigating the death of an engineer who may have been stealing techno-secrets from other companies. Her relationship with her brother is an icy one, at best, and she struggles with her ambivalence, as well as her desire to leave investigative work behind. Digging around in people’s lives is reasonably easy, but when the bullets start flying, will Peri be able to keep her promise?
Wait--what?!?! The FINAL?!?!
Calm down. Peri will return, along with her co-horts. Without giving away any spoilers, they will simply be returning in a slightly different series. It's all good.
In the meantime, MURDER BYTES will be released on Friday, February 14th. How will we celebrate the day? Forget the day--how will we celebrate the weekend?
1. FREEZER BURN and HIT OR MISSUS will be FREE on Amazon Kindle.
2. THE HOT MESS and A MORE DEADLY UNION will be available for 99 cents on Kindle.
In the meantime, you can pre-order MURDER BYTES and have it before anybody else. Just think, with a few taps of your fingertips, you could get five (count 'em, FIVE) books for $7.97, and spend your entire President's Day Weekend in blissful reading.
PS, MURDER BYTES, as with all my other books, is available in paperback and hardcover, too. They will also be available for purchase beginning February 14th.
I can't wait!

It's time to start my engines
I've written the book. It's been edited. Formatted for Kindle and paperback. What now?
1. Choose a release date.
2. Start making people want what I've written.
I made a couple of videos to kick off the process. One is to give you the release news.
The other is to make you want to know more.
Want to know more? Stay tuned.

The suspense is killing me. I hope it lasts.
Extra points for the movie this post's title is from.
I've been a busy bunny these past many months, trying desperately to finish the 5th Peri mystery, give it a name, and prepare for its debut. At times, I thought it would never happen. At times, I was willing to "half-ass" it, throw it all together, shrug, and release it without much fanfare.
But reason prevailed.
I can't release a book I'm not proud to have written. There are a couple of books among the ones I've published that are not my favorites, but I'm not ashamed to have my name on the covers. The more I edited this novel, the more I fell in love with it, and the more justice I wanted to do to the story.
The current status is:
1. It's in its final phase with my lovely and talented editor, Jennifer Silva Redmond.
2. It has a title.
3. It has a jacket teaser (that probably still needs tweaking).
4. I have four strong contenders for the cover art. This is where you come in. Take a gander at the cover options I'm considering and let me know your preference. BTW, we can mix and match fonts and colors if you think there's a better combo.
People of Earth, I give you:
