I write British crime novels featuring Thomas Lynley and Barbara Havers, YA novels set on Whidbey Island, political essays, short stories, and non-fiction books on writing.
Buddy! Buddy! Buddy! I’ve been out of touch, trying to work on a novel while staying up to the moment on the insanity of Donald Trump and his clown car cabinet officials. It’s so nice to see you, and Dad better be giving you handfuls of treats. Dollybird and Pearly May say hi!

Daniel Mays plays Lynley’s nemesis and boss in the new Britbox series “Lynley” starting Sept 4th. If you’ve never seen him in action, this actor can do it all. Good guys. Evil guys. Hilarious guys. Mean guys.

Pearly May and Dollybird in the car today. We had to drive 70 miles to pick up an original poster from “Mystery!” They were very good girls. They wanted Blue Sky to know it.

I’m very concerned that my two fur babies do not have enough beds. There are two more beds upstairs, two in the car, and three in my office. What do you think? Advise please!

I hate to put this onto Blue Sky, which is largely so positive. But this statement from Donald Trump need to be read by everyone. If you have spent any time at all thinking “Aw, it’s not so bad”, I hope this changes your mind or at least makes you consider the state of this man’s mental health.

It was tough to get a picture of the crowd size in Seattle because I could get high enough. Estimates are over 10,000 right now.
