Guest blogging with Bob Sanchez today

Bob Sanchez asked me to blog about creative non-fiction today. That was perfect timing since I'm hoping for a late 2012 release of Confessions of a Cougar. The title pretty well gives you an idea of the topic. It is a true story--coming of age at 42 with a European adventure and it's about 90% true with a little creative pizzazz thrown in. A perfect example of creative non-fiction and a truly fun read, so watch for it to come out. In the meantime, visit Bob's blog to get a good look at writing creative fiction. http://bobsanchez1.blogspot.com/

I'M GUEST BLOGGING OVER AT LOIS WINSTON'S BLOG TODAY

Lois Winston writes the Anastasia Pollack mystery series and she invited me to blog about how characters professions can affect or drive a plot. Check it out.

A perfect example is the new book I've written with co-author Meredith Holland called WHO'S GOT THE MONEY?. It will be published by Oak Tree Press this year and without an offbeat profession, there would be no plot. Here's a clue: Did you know that over $800 Million of products are manufactured in Federal Prisons every year? Don't feel bad is you didn't know that...most people don't but it makes for a clever caper.

Watch for it later this year, but in the meantime, pop over to KILLER CRAFTS AND CRAFTY KILLERS and see what I had to say. Leave a comment. I'll be visiting Lois' blog throughtout the day. If you want more my my blogging, swing over to Maryann Miller's blog, check out what I wrote there and leave a comment there too. http://its-not-all-gravy.blogspot.com/2012/02/morgan-st-james-on-character.html
