Sometimes Mother Nature throws you a delightful morning view. When I came upon the duck, I stood for a minute enjoying the scene, then grabbed my camera to record it. Because some mornings aren't as lovely, and I might need a reminder that they will be so again! Hope you all have a good one.

Writing genealogy mysteries means getting the history right! I spend a lot of time digging into old records, newspapers, and court documents to make sure the details in my books are as accurate as possible. I found a story about a missing heir who didn't want to be found. Idea for a future book?

Fascinating real-life discoveries have found their way into my books. I heard about a family who inherited a locked trunk that hadn’t been opened in decades. Inside, were letters revealing a long-lost love story. That idea became the foundation for one of my plots! What have you discovered?

To the naval officer (correct me if I'm wrong) who held up the flag outside the cathedral in the blistering wind, lost his hat, and had no one standing at his side to support him, you have my highest regard, sir. I hope others feel the same. President Carter would have been very proud of you.

A quiet Sunday morning walk around the lakes. Heavy mist, sun struggling to shine, drops of water falling from the trees from yesterday's rain. Not a person or sound disturbed my walk. Very grateful for all I have as this year closes and another begins.

Writing Your Memoir! Photos are priceless. Take a close look at a photo you have. Who is in the background? Where was it taken? How old were you? Why was it taken? Be a detective and inspect your photos. What you find could break down a brick wall. If you find people you don't know, ask someone. 😊
