Young adult mini-novel joins mystery novels and essays! 

If you know any teenagers, they might be interested in checking out www.orphanacademy.com for my young adult novella. It has 7 parts, and I’m posting a new one every few days until the whole story’s up in early February of 2011. “Orphan Academy” isn’t a book you can buy, but rather a website you can bookmark. Yes, I’ve entered the Digital Age with a vengeance!

Prefer actual books? (Or downloads, for you hip, techie, e-reader people…) Look no further! Order your copy of my second mystery, Meeting Darkness, today (you can order my first book, its prequel Meeting Murder, too). And both Meeting Murder and Meeting Darkness are downloadable for the Amazon Kindle…

If you’d like, you can poke around here to read the essays I post every now and again on a broad range of lifestyle topics. I also put up a bunch of permanent content when I published my first book (as well as numerous posts during the writing of my second – check the Archives for those). 

Thanks for visiting, and whether you choose my young adult novella, my essays, my books, or some combination, I hope you enjoy the read…
