I heard from my Wild Rose editor, Nan Swanson and she liked my story Beautiful, Inside and Out, but I'm not home free. She will ask her senior editor to offer me a contract. Wild Rose is taking the fourth of July vacation so I'll not hear until after they return to work probably in mid July. Nan said the new title is better than my old title of Big Is Beautiful. As always, I've included my most popular short romance story in the vintage line, Lab Partners.

Ask an Author

I am scheduled for an Ask An Author interview at Goodreads on August 2-4 where I'll post a bio and be available for questions from readers and other authors, whoever may show up. I hope to be available during the evening hours when probably most of the traffic will appear. Hope to see you there.

News sort of

I just lost all my previous message and I'm not happy so you'll be getting a short version of that message. I've not posted because I was waiting for JOyce's contest to finish where I offered a free download of Motorcycle Woman. The winner in Illionis, Shannon, really liked it. I have two short stories out being considered, one at Wild Rose and the other at a Science Fiction magazine. At Wild Rose is Beautiful, Inside and Out and at Analog Science Fiction is Ice Cap Run.
