This Was a Good Idea
Can you believe we are just sixty-one days away from the end of 2023? I can’t. Really, I cannot. I probably feel this way every year, but this year, I’m really wondering where my time went. I can’t recoup any of it, but I’m finishing strong, as are my friends in Writers Writing Boot Camp…

Leaves Are Falling and Words Are Winning.
It’s Fall. My absolute favorite time of the year. I’m in the South, so it’s not the same Fall that my northern upbringing was giving—boots, sweaters, consistently cool temps, and homemade soups and stews, and most importantly—death to mosquitos. But still, it is somewhat cooler, there are less bugs, and I made chili last week.…

Bennett #10, All They Loved is coming soon.
My preorder was cancelled. Some readers are annoyed, but no one is sadder than I am. Preorders are author gold. And every authors goal is to meet that deadline. But alas writer life-lifed and my 2024’s edits jumped in line ahead of All They Loved, but I’m back at it and it’s coming soon. If…

Publishers Weekly Review
My first PW review!!! Exciting stuff in the life of this writer. I’ll take zippy, vivid, fully-realized, and ring true. I would have liked a few other really important aspects of the book to be mentioned, like the fact that it’s a dual-time story…that’s where the reader learns the history, but overall…I’m a very happy…

New Release
The Bennett Series has continued and I missed announcing a few books on this blog. I left off with the December 2021 release of All The Pastor Wants. I’ve since published three more titles in the series. There are now nine! I can hardly believe I have a nine book series. I’ve enjoyed writing every…

What Angie and Jesse did for me.
Fifty-three years ago (Jan 5, 1970) All My Children premiered and ran for 41 years. Portrayed by Debbi Morgan and Darnell Williams, All My Children brought us the first Black supercouple in US television history. That was a blessing to my teenage Black girl soul. They made me believe and expect to see Black love…
