It’s started on Facebook. Don’t all great ideas? Friends and novelist extraordinaire Susan Meissner and Katie Ganshert started breaking down the much ballyhooed Gilmore Girls revival, A Year In The Life. We found ourselves speculating, longing for understanding and conclusion to these dynamic yet flawed fiction characters. Knowing our own feelings, we felt sure many of you felt the same way. …
Thanksgiving Is About More Than Being Thankful… Or Turkey
Thanksgiving. First celebrated by Pilgrims in 1621, it was a tradition they brought with them from England. Protestants wanted to celebrate God’s providence with thanksgiving.

I’ve learned to write fast, but three books in a year is an Olympic pace for me. Ha! When …
Prayer Is The Only Way Up
Sometimes people ask if I’d ever write a non fiction book. After all, I did major in journalism at the great Ohio State. But I loved writing features more than the hard news. I prefer to make things up rather than writing “just the facts.” When I was in journalism school, the facts were very important. I understand truth not critical …

Welcome to England! Since I’ve been writing sudo British/English royal novels, I thought I’d take a look at English romance traditions.
