Over The River

Once Halloween has howled its way past, I begin thinking of Thanksgiving and Christmas. T-day is a bitter-sweet time. The joy of gathering with beloved friends and family is tempered by the thoughts of those who are missing. It is also the time-- more so than New Years-- when I take a good long look at my life and remember all the many things I am thankful for. And the list is long, I just need to make it :-).

Since holidays are so important to me and my family, it will surprise no one that I have written several holiday themed books. If you are doing e, be sure to look up Death In A Turkey Town and Murder on Parade (the latest Chloe Boston mysteries and MOP has many treasured family recipes in it). The First Book of Dreams: Metropolis is  also set during the Thanksgiving and Christmas season. If you are still doing paper, look for The Master and The Saint. Believe me, you'll meet an incranation of Santa Claus that you never expected.

Happiest of holidays to all of you and drop me a line if you feel inclined.
