While writing is what I love and I have earned royalties from my novels, I pay my bills with my job as a truck driver. But I almost don't even consider it a job because it is so much fun. I love being paid to wander the country and see the beauty of America from the highway. When I tell people that I am a truck driver and writer, they often pressume that I write about trucking. Oh, I have ...

Maybe I didn't wish big.Maybe "someone" was looking out for me.For some reason I've always felt that I was being watched over, protected somehow. And I've always felt that something better, the best part of my life yet, was waiting for me just down the road.

Last night as I walked across a parking lot in El Paso, TX I noticed the moon, low on the horizon. It was just a thumbnail and the sky was a little cloudy. It looked amazing. Mysterious. I love moments like that. When nature catches my attention and then holds it. It is one of the things I love about my job. Sometimes I can't believe I get paid to do what I do because I love my work so much. ...

I didn't really make any New Year resolutions. I didn't set any goals.Because I tend to just live each day as it happens. And sometimes I wake up and just want to write, or play with the grandkids, or go hiking, or clean the garage. I used to be a neat freak. I used to keep "to do lists" and stressed over getting things done. I am glad I outgrew that when I became and adult. I'd ...

My NaNo Novel

I am over 10,000 words into my novel about Rochelle and Connor and the story is coming along well. I started the novel with only a vague idea of what it was going to be about. But the character came alive and it is flowing even better than I'd hoped. I can't wait to finish this!!
