Listening to my son say the pledge of allegiance while aware that we don't have a country where there is liberty and justice for all is a certain kind of pain. Virtual learning through fascism is difficult.

ONE WEEK from today, I finally get to share the cover for "Grace & Jo Have Never Solved a Murder" with you! And better yet? YOU'LL BE ABLE TO PRE-ORDER IT!
My team knocked the design out of the park, and I know you'll love it as much as I do.

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA

It's ok to admit that you've watched a true crime documentary and finished thinking... I bet I could have solved the case. Like the characters in my upcoming novel "Grace and Jo Have Never Solved a Murder," we all have our own special set of skills. What are yours?

So how cozy is my upcoming novel #GraceAndJo?
I like to say it’s cozy like your favorite tee, not your favorite sweater. It’s still feel-good and comfortable, but slightly less reserved.
