Pineapple Cruise Prime Deal, Podcast, Archer Takes a Holiday
Happy Labor Day!
I've got a few deals for you below and an update - TODAY I'm finishing The Girl Who Lost Him, the latest Shee McQueen (#4). Whoo! It will be available by the end of the month. The cover is taking a little longer than usual so I don't have it on preorder yet.

Next, I'll be starting the next Pineapple Port mystery, which I hope to have done in three months.
After that, I have an idea for a thriller that will be finished early next year that isn't in either series. A brand new book with brand new characters.
But while I have a few things to finish up today, Archer's made it clear he won't be doing anything today except swimming in the pool, because if we didn't take him in the pool every day his head would explode.
Take it easy and have a good holiday!
I was on a podcast...
I was recently interviewed by Thomas Umstattd Jr on his Novel Marketing Podcast.
His intro: I love introducing authors to tools that can make their writing lives easier. Some tools help you write better, publish more easily, grow your email list, and increase your readership.
Different tools work for different authors, so I’m not dogmatic about which tools you should use. However, I do know of many scams. You’ll never hear me recommend Xlibris, iUniverse, or Author Solutions because they are all scams. They take advantage of authors.
I want to feature legitimate companies so you can make an informed decision about which tools will serve you best.
One such helpful tool is AuthorsXP.

What if your beating heart becomes the reason someone wants you dead?
A homeless vet pastes her vintage Caddy with paper cutouts then drops dead at her feet, a pair of blue-handled scissors sticking out of his chest. And once again Lalla Bains is a murder suspect
As she kneels down to help a sound causes her to look up, and a figure is silhouetted against the late afternoon sun.
She calls out for help but the figure disappears, leaving Lalla shocked as she realizes a killer now has her marked for murder.
