Welcome back to the home of Paranormal & Dauntless Romance. Wow. Year 10. A whole decade. I’m astounded. Today is Thursday and that means it’s time to start flashing, like we have for 10 whole years. It’s amazing we’ve gone this long! This is Week 521 of #ThursThreads, the challenge that ties tales together. Want…
Do y’all know about Etsy? Yeah, I shouldn’t go there. It’s dangerous. But I’ve been eyeing some art prints from Purple Top Hat (purpletophat.etsy.com) because her work is whimsical and beautiful and makes me so darn happy. They arrived in the mail yesterday and today I got them framed on my wall. From left to…
It’s time for Snippet Sunday and the weather outside bloody hot. Still. I’m hiding inside and it’s good because I have edits to do. But I always get excited when a thunderstorm brews outside. I have a new release (well, a new re-release as a stand-alone) and I’m showing it off. It’s a short, it’s…
Welcome to the monthly round up of all my #ThursThreads tales. It’s July already and I’m not ready for summer to be this far along. It goes so fast. The good news is we seem to have a decent rhythm and no one is miserable this summer, except with the heat. Cheyenne has been getting…

Welcome back to the home of Paranormal & Dauntless Romance. I’m amazed and delighted to welcome y’all to the 10th ANNIVERSARY of #ThursThreads. Ten full years of writing each week, tying on tales connected with the thread of a line from the previous winning story. Talk about a long line of history. When I started…
It’s time for Snippet Sunday and the weather outside bloody hot. We’re at 6300 ft of elevation and we should not be a 97 F (36 C). It’s miserable, esp without AC. So we’re hiding. Thank goodness we have a basement. We might be sleeping down there tonight. I have a new release (well, a…
So, a few weeks ago, a colleague that I’d met in the Las Vegas Romance Writers sent me a message and asked if I had a short story he could use in his writing class as an example of romance. I was surprised to be asked because, though we were friends on FB, we didn’t…
Do you love lemon bars? This recipe has been a Muir family favorite for generations (four so far) and yet it’s an easy recipe to make a sweet delicious treat. Can be made with regular all purpose flour if you don’t have the gluten allergy. Recipe below: For a 9 x 9 in pan: 1…
