Sometimes real-life hands us our own mysteries. After writing them for awhile, you'd think I'd be thrilled to have a real life mystery drop in my lap. Not exactly. I've been quiet here but active in other places online, promoting my latest Rollin RV Mystery, Superstition Victim. The other day I was on Amazon (where... Continue Reading →
...a lot is going on! As a mystery writer, I've learned readers want a story told honestly, but they love to be surprised. Sounds ironic, right? How can you be honest yet spring something that's unexpected? Well, a fair balance of revealing clues (including the clues that lead to solving the case) while distracting the... Continue Reading →
...about the newest Rollin RV Mystery! Many thanks to Mason Canyon for featuring Superstition Victim in a recent post. When she asked me to do a guest post, I wasn't sure how to approach it until Betty gave me a nudge in the right direction. See for yourself how it all turned out at the... Continue Reading →
Oh, it's been too long since I've posted here. Much has been going on behind the screen of this blog -- including my finishing and publishing the third Rollin RV Mystery, "Superstition Victim." Good thing I finished the book a few months ago. I don't think I'd be able to focus on it these days.... Continue Reading →
One thing that happens when you're sick for awhile is you get a chance to read. A lot. Recently, reading a mystery novel, mostly absorbed in the story (the writer was a bit self-conscious, so I wasn't totally able to lose myself, my suspension of disbelief only partially lifted), I was dropped completely out of...

Deb herself is great at this. A fellow RVing author, she pens mysteries and romances. You can read my post here. And while... Continue Reading →
After I read On the Road to Death's Door, by MJ Williams, I had to find out more about its author -- or, I should say, authorS. MJ Williams is a pen name for sisters-in-law Peggy Joque Williams and Mary Joy Johnson (nee Williams). These women balance other professional interests with their collaborative writing efforts...

It's been awhile since we've peeked into the lives of RVing writers, so it's great to introduce another fellow traveler and scribbler. Deb Sanders writes a variety of books -- mystery, romance, fantasy, paranormal thrillers...! And she's prolific, having penned at least eight books to date. How does she manage this while on the road?... Continue Reading →
I confess upfront I'm not a reader of romance novels, so Janetta Fudge-Messmer's Early Birds isn't a book I'd normally pick up to read. But when I saw the series features RVing couple Ben and Betsy Stevenson, I not only read it but asked Janetta if she'd be willing to submit herself to an ellenbooks... Continue Reading →
