I WAS INTERVIEWED BY HEIDI THOMAS ABOUT WRITING WITH A PARTNER

 Heidi Thomas interviewed me and my  WHO'S GOT THE MONEY? co-author Meredith Holland on her blog . You can read Part I on her blog today. 

We talk about writing as co-authors. WHO'S GOT THE MONEY? is the new funny crime caper from Oak Tree Press inspired by real incidents with furniture manufacturing in federal prisons. Read the excerpt by clicking the flip book in the right-hand column on my blog. Check out Part I of our interview on Heidi's blog today. http://heidiwriter.wordpress.com/

We talk about writing as co-authors. WHO'S GOT THE MONEY? is the new funny crime caper from Oak Tree Press inspired by real incidents with furniture manufacturing in federal prisons. Check it out. Part 2 runs on Monday. Please LIKE and repost. Thanks. 

Every time I write with a partner, it is a different experience because it all depends upon the project, my co-author's strengths in concert with mine and many other factors. I've discovered that if you set up the guidelines and the "do's and dont's" in the beginning, writing with a partner can be lots of fun.

I'm currently working on two more novels, each with different writing partners, plus a book of my own. Whew!

READ AN EXCERPT FROM MY NEW NOVEL, "WHO'S GOT THE MONEY?"

The new book I wrote with Meredith Holland is pure fiction, but couldn't have been conceived without our real life experiences while working for a contractor to the Federal prison system. Click the cover on the right of this blog to read an excerpt--then buy your own paperback or digital copy. Available at most online booksellers or order from your favorite bookstore.

Meredith and I have been inside prison factories, military warehouses and experienced many funny over-the-top things that inspired our plot. This has it all--humor, intrigue, a trio of bumbling Charlie's Angel-type amateur sleuths and lots of twists and turns.

Author Deborah Coonts said, "...a fast, funny and clever chase. Morgan St. James, Meredith Holland and their trio of sharp women turn disaster and defeat into determination to make the bad guys pay. ..a thoroughly enjoyable ride!"
