PLANS FOR 2020

In 2020 I intend to spend more time giving talks and workshops. One of the things I realized as I honed my writing skills and knowledge through the years is that I really enjoy sharing with writers at all stages. The other thing is the fun I have by being an energetic, entertaining speaker. Hey, not bad for someone who spent her youth afraid to speak in public. You might relate to those old symptoms---sweaty hands, shaky voice and a pounding heart. Definitely doesn't happen any more.

I also want to spend more time staying in touch with family and friends. Writing can consume you. The hours fly by and suddenly all of the things to do and contacts you want to make are moved to the next day---then the next. Hours fly by when it seems only minutes have passed.

Yes, I will be working on new projects, but will try to split my time in several directions. I say "try" because sometimes the best laid plans fall by the wayside.

A wonderful friend, Virginia Hawthorne, who was around my age passed away a few weeks ago. It made me take stock and decide to change a few things. Next year I want to put some time into something her husband and I discussed yesterday, but it is not open for discussion yet. All I can say, is that he plans to carry on with the amazing "giving back" that couple has done for all the years I've known them and I will offer assistance as I can.

I did spend a lot of time writing this year, and the result was 3 books released:

New Silver Sisters Mystery Murder on the Menu, written with my real life sister Phyllice Bradner. Always a fun thing to do and a real bonding for sisters who live in different states. #Kindle #ePub and #Paperback

5th Silver Sisters book

Scammed, the 5th book in the Revenge is Fun series #Kindle  #ePub #Paperback #Large Print Paperback  I finally got to implement the portion of a plot that I'd been trying to settle upon for several years. I was ripped off by a nasty president of the HOA for tens of thousands of dollars when I lived in California. I got to pay back a character in this book inspired by him, but the fellow had the nerve to actually die many years back so I can't send him a copy to see if he recognizes himself. LOL


4th Edition of Writers' Tricks of the Trade, updated for 2020. #Kindle #ePub and #Paperback Things and sources are constantly changing and this book gets updated periodically. Always a cool book for writers to keep handy for info, technique or inspiration. Heck, I actually learned from my own book while doing the editing.


I didn't include links to these books here, because the point of this post wasn't to sell books. It was to talk about future plans and past endeavors. If you really want to find them, they are on most online bookseller sites.
