Got news? I do, and it’s big!  Effective 2012, I’ll be writing for Random House, specifically for Ballantine Bantam Dell. I will forever have friends with the fine people where I have been published for 28 years. However, in this broader world I have created for myself, Random House is the perfect fit.  Because it will be a new beginning, I’ll be starting a new series set . . . 76 trumbones please! . . . in my hometown of Port Orchard.  I can already hear you asking, "But isn’t that where the Cedar Cove series is set?"  The answer is YUP, but changes are coming. Details to follow in the upcoming months.  I’m excited!
