Join me at the Rappahannock Writer’s Conference where I’ll be presenting a class on Researching for Fiction. The conference has both in-person and virtual options so anyone can attend.
Are you writing a police procedural? Or a novel set in the wild west of the 1860? Maybe in modern day Japan? Every book needs research, but how do you do it effectively? Writers know the research rabbit hole all too well, but you don’t want to get stuck down there forever. You need to be confident that you have the right tools to find the information you need. I’ll give you practical advice on how to search smarter, which tools to use, and what you can do if you want to go the extra mile.
I will be returning once again to the Fredericksburg Independent Book Festival. Every year I’m impressed by the variety of authors here in VA. Please come check us out and spend the day in beautiful, historic Fredericksburg.
Are you writing a police procedural? Or a novel set in the Wild West of the 1860s? Maybe in modern-day Japan? Every book needs research, but how do you do it effectively? Join me LIVE for a demonstration of how you can use them when researching for fiction.

I will be re-releasing Lost & Found, the prequel short for Tar Heel Pie. See how Amy Monroe and Fleming Sinclair meet in the immediate aftermath of Amy’s “colossal mistake.”
It’s finally time to reserve a copy of Tar Heel Pie. Get it delivered straight to your Kindle on release day by preordering. Here’s the description.
Can Amy ever get over being that girl who did that thing?
Eight years ago, Amy Monroe made a colossal mistake when she put her trust in a man who didn’t deserve it. When it blew up in her face in a very public way, the events made her rethink everything in her life. Now, she’s on a good path, and even due for a promotion. Until her great aunt leaves her a crumbling Victorian mansion in her tiny hometown, a town she has avoided going back to since The Incident.
All Amy wants to do is renovate the house, sell it, and get back to her life as a marketing consultant in California, but Haverhill has a way of drawing people in. Before she knows it, Amy, an atheist, is asked to help revive her community’s dying church, befriends the new minister, and inherits custody of her family’s aging pug. When her contractor turns out to be a past crush, her resolve never to let a man get close to her is tested. Pretty soon Amy is fully enmeshed in her hometown. So much so that when a crooked preacher threatens to defraud the people of Haverhill, Amy is determined to stop him.
Once again loss, love, and a longing to find her place, has Amy questioning everything. Is she sure about the career she’s chosen? Can she find a place for herself in the town where so many people bore witness to her worst mistake? And most of all can she learn to trust a man again?
