Holidays of magic, mystery, miracles and light
Here we are in the heart of a holiday season of magic, mystery, miracles and light. This season includes not just the Christmas holiday but Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, the Winter Solstice and even the celebration of the New Year.

Seeking Glory Outtakes Part One
I’ve been told that readers who follow blogs like these enjoy hearing about and reading the segments/passages of the book that didn’t make the final cut. Well if that’s true I have some I can share with you. Now if you’ve read the book you probably will know who the central figure in this is; …
Summer is Here!
Summer is almost here and for so for many of us that means at least one trip to the beach or maybe two or three. You may have noticed I love Cape Cod given that I wrote a book that features it so prominently. I think I made the Cape virtually a character in the …
