Life and Writing



After a rather lengthy hiatus from blogging, I’m back! I let myself become immersed in writing my current novel, working with beta readers, and editing again and again.

The story of Vic and Jago (pronounced Yago) in 1892 Granite and Philipsburg has captivated me. I hope to share the story with you in the not too distant future.

During this time, I also let myself relish the wonders of life; adventures with my husband, Jerry (hiking, skiing, traveling…); visiting and enjoying our family in different places across the U.S.; learning more about ceramics and pottery; enjoying the planning and celebration of our youngest son and his new bride’s wedding; and taking the time to get or stay in shape—truly a challenge as we get older.



I am excited to finally get to participate in the Miners Union Day in Philipsburg this weekend, explore some of the ghost towns in Granite County, and check out the old Rumsey Mill site. Should be a grand adventure and delight to share the history that interests so many people in Montana!

I am hovering between the worlds of traditional publishing and self-publishing…We’ll see what the next six months reveals. Ten years ago I had no idea what I was getting into when I began writing a novel. Now I know so much more—But, I feel like I still know so little about publishing and marketing a novel.
