I am so pleased to have JD Core as my first Wednesday’s Guest on my new blog. JD is a mystery writer and a terrific supporter of other authors, and I met him online a couple of years ago. He has started a new venture for mystery and thriller authors and is here to tell …
How was your weekend? Mine was busy, but a lot of fun. Yesterday I met with my writer’s group and received some good feedback on my new book. Saturday, I was at the Winnsboro Center for the Arts, keeping the doors open, and met some folks who were interested in the current exhibit and art …
This post originally appeared in Feb 2012, but the book is still available, and the writing tips are still relevant, so I thought I would share it again. I was so busy with work for the art center, as well as working on my newest book, I didn’t finish reading a book this week for …
Another week has whizzed by. I was busy all week preparing for the big garage sale at the Winnsboro Center For the Arts, which didn’t leave much time for writing, but I did get a few thousand words done on my current work in progress. How was your week? I hope it was productive and, …
“What on earth?” you might be saying. Has Maryann lost all her marbles? This is Thursday, and it isn’t even one of her regular blogging days. So what gives? What gives is that I am participating in a book tour for Dana Leipold and this is the only day that was available to me to …
I’m happy to have Slim Randles here again as today’s Wednesday’s Guest. I thought this was a nice piece that invites us to stop and appreciate our days, especially those early morning hours when the world is waking up. I do love those daybreak times when I go outside and the sun is rising over …

Some cities, concerned about the amount of litter on their streets, have imposed a fee for using plastic bags at stores. Dallas is the latest. Granted, litter is a problem. I hate to even say how much trash I see along the county road where I walk each morning. I also hate to admit how …
Please welcome Slim Randles as today’s Wednesday’s Guest. He’s here so often he could be called a regular, but Wednesday’s Regular doesn’t have the same rhythm as Wednesday’s Guest, and in my estimation, writing is all about rhythm. I love this essay because I do love to play in the snow, and I miss it …
