 SHORT EXCERPT from Date #3:

Scott stared across the table at me.  His eyes were concentrating fiercely. He must have approved, because then he smiled for the first time.  A thin, satisfied smile.  No teeth showing.

“Let’s get right to it then, shall we?” he said.  I watched as he pulled a sheet of paper from the inside pocket of his jacket.  He carefully unfolded it.  Then he took out a pen.

He read from the sheet in front of him.  “The company may decide to move me to New York.  Would you be willing to move to another city with me?”  His eyes lifted to meet mine.

I gulped.  “Is that a check-list?”

“Yes.” He said apologetically.  “I know.  How embarrassing to use paper.  But Mom doesn’t trust computers.”

Mom?  His mom wrote a checklist?

“Great for anyone who enjoys zipping through a lighthearted read in a single, short sitting." BOOKLIST

The Story behind ROWENA THROUGH THE WALL - Amazon TOP 100 Bestseller!

Many people have asked me how a former comedy writer and award-winning mystery author ended up writing the Rowena fantasy series. 

Yes, it shocked even me.  Hold on, because this story isn't funny.

It was four years ago.  My mother had been admitted to the hospital for the 38th time, dying. This time, she was in for seven weeks, and I was there for most of it.  As the news got worse and worse, I remember looking at that hospital wall and thinking, "If I could walk through that wall into another world right now, I would."

That night, I went home and started writing Rowena Through the Wall.

I took notebooks to the hospital the next day.  And the next.  I wrote in a fever for weeks, to escape.  At night, I would type the transcripts into a manuscript.

Yes, fantasy.  And I was a writer with a rep in a different genre.

On Sept. 28, my mother's birthday, ROWENA THROUGH THE WALL made the Amazon Top 100 Bestseller list (all books.)  She is no longer here, but I could swear Mom is on my shoulder right now, cheering and laughing.

This review is from: Rowena Through the Wall: Expanded Edition (Land's End - book #1) (Kindle Edition)

Time travel...what is not to love? I started this book this morning and couldn't put it down. When it ended, I almost cried out NOOOO! The minute I started reading, I was immediately drawn to Rowena and where her travels would take her. I laughed, cried, cheered her on all the way to the last page. I certainly don't want to give away any spoilers but I will admit it was the best $.99 I've ever spent. Sequel? Yes there is and now I'll order that one too since I'll certainly pay the price to pick up more of this incredible story set in Land's End. Loved this book and I'm sure you will too!
