Happy Autumn!

Fall in Wisconsin is my favorite time of year. Golden leaves, chilly mornings, and plenty of excuses to stay inside and write. If only spring came next instead of winter!

A big thank-you to everyone who joined through the Booked for Love giveaway. You're officially part of the book club now. Pull up a chair. We're happy to have you!

Speaking of writing, the sequel to my debut novel, ​The Road Home​, is well underway. So far, I've written 36,000 words and I'm really enjoying the direction this story is taking. If you have an idea for the title, hit reply and let me know!

Have you met Piper?

You can meet Piper here. And don't forget about her sidekick, Roosevelt (a.k.a. Rosie) Hale. Meet Rosie here.

Did you know there's a little extra waiting for you in my shop? When you purchase any of the first three Piper Haydn Piano Mysteries directly from my shop, you'll get a different set of paper dolls for each book. Because reading a mystery is fun...but having a little Piper & Rosie of your own is even better.

❤️Nancy Drew + a journal?! Yes, please.

Some books deserve a second chapter.

These journals turn vintage books, including classics like Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys, into something new: blank pages waiting for notes, lists, or a story of your own.

Holiday shopping is right around the corner, and since every journal is one of a kind, the best covers go fast.
