Goodreads sends a monthly newsletter with new releases and highlights of authors you may know or want to know.
Amazon will also send a quick notice when a new book is available, although I find it happens sporadically.

Where did you get the idea for HIS?
My original Hamilton family consisted of three brothers, two sisters, and one female cousin. I wrote a first story with that premise, and before I finished, I had morphed the family into five brothers, one foster brother, and one sister. The stories came to me from real-world situations and my crazy imagination.
Who is your favorite Hamilton brother?
As I wrote or plotted each novel, that brother became my favorite. I try not to play favorites.
Is it true Dottie and Bob were your pets?
It is true. Dottie was my long-time companion, whom I was saddened to lose. Bob is my cat, and I accidentally stole it from my neighbor. That’s another story though.
What do you do when you aren’t writing?
I mostly read. I am a fanatic of historical romances – regency, western, and Scottish. I dream of a Scottish laird sweeping me off my feet. Although I’d prefer he travel time here as I need conveniences like a bathroom.
Where do you get your ideas for your stories?
Daily media consumption – television, newspapers, and books – and how I’d write them differently. Although, the checkout clerk may prompt a story for me to revere or kill a character, lol.
How do you come up with their personalities and quirks?
With each HIS brother, I wanted a different character for each one. I’d read too many series where the main characters were basically the same. So, as I devised the plots, I considered the best character to deal with that situation. Then, I built the personality from there.
Do you base your characters on people you know?
Of course. That is what makes writing fun!
