Also, I'm a member of a very friendly, laid back writer's group that was formerly local but went online with the pandemic and stayed that way, if anyone would like to join let me know and I'll send you the details.
I'm interested in writing groups. never been in one. got lots of fiction stuff I'm sitting on for someday sharing.

Sent you a PM. From what I've heard, they're a bit hard to find. It never even occurred to me that they existed until a friend of mine invited me to a reading some years ago.

Also, there is a website. I've been doing things through email so long I didn't realize we had one: https://thebardscorner.wixsite.com/tbcwg

I just published my new book today, "Murder at the Tarsal Shore"

https://books2read.com/murder-at-the-tarsal-shore
Catt Zago’s luxury vacation and family reunion has been interrupted by a murder! She knows a thing or two about committing crimes, but not so much about investigating them. If she can't solve this mystery, she and her brother might be next.

Who did it? Was it the retired executioner with an axe to grind? Was it the woman who claims to be a god? Was it the wizard who insists that the living doll that he carries around isn't a daemon? Or was it their host– a kindly man of excellent hospitality who absolutely never takes off his copper skull mask for any reason?

To make matters worse, none of those suspicious characters has a motive. The only person who has a reason to hate the victim… is Catt herself!

Haha! I have added the book to my wishlist. Redwall-but-hamsters vibe in that cover art
