Well I couldn't stay away from Shady Place. In the coming days part one of a new Shady Place Jim Phillips adventure will be dropped, right here on this blog. It's a little story that takes place between the end of Shady Place and the next installment in the series.  A little something to whet the appetite while the cavernous void of wondering just what Jim Phillips is up to these days pulls you mercilessly into a tailspin of a despair... You are all waiting with bated breath right?  Pining for more?  Oh, you have lives?  You forgot about Jim...

Today's post is a picture of a cat: Always fun to come home to this after a long day on the road! If only you knew where that tongue had been...

I spend a lot of time in the car.  A lot more than I want.  Hours upon hours every week.  A lot of that time is spent alone and I go through phases with what I listen to.

My plan is to alternate between Shady Place novels and other stories I'd like to write.  While I love Jim and all the Shady Placers, my pool of creative material extends far beyond that world. Next up is Amara.  I'm not going to go too in depth with plot, but it will be a bit of super-natural thriller, chock full of characters you'll love to hate.  Stay tuned, I will be posting updates as progress unfolds!
