A Holiday Coloring Sheet from Hyperion Night!
Hyperion's really gotten into his Lovecraft Word-of-the-Day calendar, so much so that he's offering his Tarot clients coloring sheets for the holidays. You can download yours here. (Even though Hyperion, from the Tea and Tarot cozy mysteries, is a pagan at heart, he loves Christmas too). #TeaandTarot, #cozymystery

Who Doesn't Like a Free Sample?
I always like to read a sample of a book before I buy. Is the tone something I'll enjoy? Am I going to keep turning the pages? You never know until you start reading. So, I'm providing a PDF sample of the first three chapters of Close Encounters of the Curd Kind (available September 5th). You can download the PDF sample HERE. And here's what it's about: The truth is out there… Way out there. Susan Witsend, owner of the best little UFO-themed B&B in the Sierras, is absolutely,

Check out the California location for the Wits' End series
Murphys: The picturesque Sierra location that inspired Doyle. Wits' End centers around the owner of a UFO-themed B&B in "Doyle," California. There actually is a Doyle, California -- a teeny town near the Nevada border. But that's not the Doyle of Wits' End. Doyle is based on Murphys, California, a Gold Rush-era town in the Sierra foothills, between Angels Camp and Bear Valley. I grew up in California and spent many summers at Bear Valley, making sure to stop along the way in

Sight - S1 : E16
Zoe’s scream sliced through the bookstore. She shrieked and stumbled in the aisle, knocking the travel books to the carpet. The wolf, skeletal, merciless, hunched it shoulders, readying to spring. Harry’s spirit whispered a curse. In spite of everything, pity surged through me for the woman. But I didn’t turn away. I saw the animal spirit tear at her neck. I saw Harry’s malformed ghost reach into her heart. I saw the sheriff grab Zoe’s wrist. In a back-and-forth motion, the g

Sight - S1 : E15
Zoe slid the Necronomicon inside her shiny olive jacket. “Drop the belt.” The sheriff unbuckled her utility belt. Her holstered gun thunked to the thin, gray carpet. A cool draft twined about me. My hands dug into Bailey’s fur. Something was here – Harry? – but I couldn’t see it. “You were outside my house last night,” I said. “Yes,” Zoe said. “Now into the storage room.” “Why?” the sheriff asked casually, and this time the chill I felt rattled my bones. The sheriff didn’t wa
