Watch the Replay of My Chat with Karen Booth and Get Signed Books.
Earlier this week, I had the honor of chatting with friend and fellow author Karen Booth during her release day celebration. Flyleaf Books in Chapel Hill hosted the chat. We talked about her new grumpy /sunshine romance Swap and Smell the Roses, the tough business of being an author, and a lot more.

What I’m Reading…
Fake It Till You Make It by Siera LondonÂ
Last Saturday, I got to attend another author friend’s book event. Siera London did a booksigning at the local Barnes & Noble and chatted with us about her latest release, Fake It Till You Make It. It’s a fish-out-of-water, grumpy/sunshine, small-town romance. I always find it fascinating to hear the inspiration for and insight into another writer’s story. Siera talked about her own background as a nurse, and how it contributed to this story about family, community, redemption, second chances, and having the courage to start over again.

What I’m Listening To: The Loop by Jordan Rakei
I discovered Jordan Rakei’s song, “Midnight Mischief” by chance several years ago and fell in love with the song and his distinct voice. I’ve been playing his latest album, The Loop, on heavy rotation. I love the entire album, but my current favorites are: “Freedom,” “Friend or Foe,” “The Learning,” and “Hopes and Dreams.”

An honorable mention goes to WILLOW whose album empathogen is also getting a lot of play.
PS: Yes, I am that girl who has always listened to “weird” music in addition to everyone’s faves. LOL.
What I’m Watching: The Madame Blanc Mysteries
The Madame Blanc Mysteries on Acorn
I’m slightly obsessed with British and Canadian mystery shows. A few weeks ago, I discovered a new-to-me British show called The Madame Blanc Mysteries streaming on Acorn. It’s about an antiques dealer whose husband dies in an accident and leaves her nearly bankrupt—except for a little cottage he owned in Sainte Victoire, France. When she arrives in town, the quirky locals believed another woman—who is now mysteriously missing—was his wife. Madame Blanc (Jean White) begins investigating her husband’s now suspicious death, but soon finds herself lending her antiques expertise and clever mind to help the local police chief solve other mysterious happenings around town.
