Happy Earth Day! Get outside and spend some time in nature today and reflect on some greener habits you might be able to shift. In my Succulent Sleuth novels, the main character makes use of a backyard compost bin often. Do you compost at home? Could you start? #happyearthday #earthday #booksky

All my stories together, updated again. I just love my covers! #booksky #cozymystery

Melissa Bourbon, aka Ivy Cassidy, is my cover designer. Her new paranormal cozy, House of Spells and Secrets, just came out. How beautiful is the cover? I'm not usually a paranormal reader, but the triplet sisters convinced me since I'm part of a three sister pack. ivycassidybooks.com/bookshelf/

I've been busy with the next Succulent Sleuth novel and I'm ready to share the title: The Corpse by the Creek! I'm expecting a summer publication. I can't wait for you to read it! #booksky #cozymystery #mysterybook

And done! I wrote some words in my current work in progress (a new lady forester mystery novel) every day in January with the national @sincworldwide.bsky.social and our January Jumpstart! 📝❤️📚 #januaryjumpstart #booksky #SinCJumpstart

As an author and someone who writes a lot for my day job, I type a lot. A few weeks ago, I visited the Apple Store. I looked at their keyboards, and it hit me just how beat up my keyboard had gotten. There were holes on some of the keys. Holes. So I went home with a new shiny keyboard.

This past weekend, we rented an MCM house for my birthday. It had huge windows overlooking a wooded backyard, beautiful wooden ceilings, and cozy heated concrete floors. We played board games, watched movies, read, and I kept to my Sisters in Crime January Jumpstart commitment and wrote every day.

Melanie is digging her new job as a landscaper – until her old boss turns up dead her first day. It’s the cover-up that envelops her good friend. “The mystery kept me guessing.” #mystery #booksky amzn.to/3cOH6Gt apple.co/3gcnIpg BN bit.ly/2YZZLbm Google bit.ly/2PRRo2s

My author year in review. I've had a busy year! Lots of stories written and published! I was kinda surprised to add up the numbers and see the results. I'm looking forward to a productive, story-filled 2026!

"Succulent Sleuth" came to me when I was on a run and I knew it was a keeper! At first, I thought it was just the title of the first book, but I decided it was the whole series!

What inspired you to create a green sleuther? * also I love the phrase "succulent sleuth" 🌿
