I can hardly believe it, but I’m going to France and Spain this year. For real. My husband and I have talked about going to Europe for years. Even got passports for us and the kids years ago. But the trip didn’t happen. Too much money. Too many details to plan. Too many days away…

Wrapping my head around a new year…already?!
So, 2023 is right around the corner. Some people are getting ready to party and celebrate. Some are busy setting goals and making plans for the new year.

Holidays in Books
Our neighbors to the north recently celebrated Canada Day. Here in the US we have the 4th of July next Monday. It used to be one of my favorite holidays as a kid. My dad always set off fireworks, and we ate fried chicken and potato salad. Um um good. I’ve had THE THEATRE on…

Have you lost your mind?
by Kathryn Jane I keep asking myself this question. Why? Because I’ve been told many, many times that a writer should always stick to one genre, yet in the span of just a few months I’m releasing four books, in three different genres. Why? Because I write what I want to write. What I feel….

by Kathryn Jane Lately I am rushing, scurrying, and barely on the brink of being on time. Why? Oh, that answer is simple. Because I’m a procrastinator and tend to overbook myself. So here I am, a day late with my blog post, and this time it is because I’ve been fighting to get my…
