A Sad Loss This Week

What Makes a Great Summer Beach Read?

Posted May 9 2013

It’s nearly Memorial Day, and that means summer beach reading will soon be here!  Funny, isn’t it, how readers often refer to particular books as a “good beach read,” yet there is no “beach reads” section in  the bookstore.  I suppose this means that everyone’s idea of what makes a good book to read on […]

Nice to know!! So excited

Haha! Our terrier mix and shepherd mix are certainly selective, too. They hear "treat" without fail, but "down" or "no!" don't always register. Raggs is such a cute name!

Reggie certainly looks happy! My own dog, Raggs, has "selective" hearing--and he's not well trained. But. Our dogs are family and we do love them.

Thanks, Barbara! I wish I could write faster, too! My ideas are backing up in my head. : ) I wish my brain had a USB port where I could automatically download the stories from my mind to the page. I'm so glad you enjoyed the book! I'm hard at work on the second one, A Trip with Trouble.
  Barbara
I LOVED getaway with Murder. The second book can't be published soon enough. Can you write any faster? ;-)
