Sierra’s Story – Chapter Six – And a chat with Shellie
In Chapter Six of Sierra's Story we learn more about Charles Carpenter and the threat he poses to Sonny and Sierra's fractured relationship. Will he crack their world wide open or will Sierra skirt the danger and steer them to safety? And then there are the twins, Luke and Lollie. Their drama may be a result of your average teenage angst. But what if there's
Just Doing a Little Light Reading
Wednesdays are bellerina days here at All Things Southern. The little belles and I get to play while their mother works and we all look forward to it. Right now, however, I'm under a little pressure to get the edits turned back into my editor for my latest manuscript. And that's why, when my BFF offered to help tag-team babysit today to give me some extra
Dear Nat’l Media: A suggestion for those clinging to our lightpoles and standing in our ditches (Can I Get a Share or RT? THX!)
******8-29-12 After watching that last storm update, I feel compelled to offer the following pertinent except from my most recent book, Sue Ellen's Girl Ain't Fat, She Just Weighs Heavy .

A veteran of this affair by now, one might think I

When he gave the sea its boundary so the waters would not overstep his command, and when he marked out the foundations of the earth. Proverbs 8:29 Afterwards I was blessed to sign books
It was ALL That Hattiesburg!
Wow! Although I've been "to and through" Hattiesburg before, today's trip led me to believe that those earlier visits, those that kept me on the main drag, didn't come come close to giving me the true Hattiesburg experience! Main Street Books is a treasure tucked into the historic district and, goodness, what a welcome they extended. Diane, and her staff, (her lovely mom and neice, Amy) had a full-out
What IS my Publisher Thinking?!
Warning: This is not a feel good post. I know. I'm sorry. It's not like me to use my blog to rant but I'm shocked, confused, and more than a bit irritated and y'all know me-- I can't move on until I get stuff out through my fingers! So, you know my next book, "Sue Ellen's Girl Ain't Fat, She Just Weighs Heavy." You've heard me talking about it.
