Seven Things By Laura Bradford I have to admit, I’m so copying off Marjorie’s post idea from Tuesday (though, technically speaking, I, too, was tagged on this 7-things-you-might-not-know-about-my-writing thing by the Stiletto Gang’s own Lynn Cahoon a while back). So here we go.. 1) My first book was written in twenty-minute increments over a five year […]
Things Aren’t What They Used to Be by Debra H. Goldstein I am a dinosaur. The signs have been there for awhile – my friends are talking about or getting plastic surgery, cruise brochures are more exciting than the ones we looked at when we booked a trip to climb The Great Wall of China […]
I suppose it all begins with having two names: Marilyn Meredith for my Deputy Tempe Crabtree mysteries and F. M. Meredith for my Rocky Bluff P.D. mysteries. Violent Departures, #11 in the Rocky Bluff P.D. series recently became available on Amazon as a print book and on Kindle. This means I’m in the throes of […]

How Best to Support Your Favorite Writers and Make Sure the Books You Love Keep Coming by Linda Rodriguez This is a piece I posted to Writers Who Kill a couple of years ago. I’m reposting it here because I think it has important information that I didn’t know until recent years and that others have […]

No longer do I head off to far-away places that need to be reached by air. (I may ignore that decision if something intriguing enough should arise, but that’s how I’m feeling now.) Most of the in-person appearances I’ll be making in the next few months are driveable. Last Saturday was the first one of […]
Last summer, before my life turned upside down, I committed to joining Toastmasters at my workplace. Since August, I’ve given one speech. This month, I’ll be giving two, one in a competition.
