Kim's Musings

Writing As you can tell by my other posts recently, I have been reading and researching the aspects of self-publishing and I've decided to try it, so now I'm switching my focus to my own writing so that I have something to self-publish. I have at least four books to consider: my novella that's half finished with a working title, The Wedding Crasher , The Kidnapped Bride , Honeymooning on Cape Cod , etc. (many of the titles I'm considering) - this is the third novella in the Lana Malloy, paranormal suspense series ; or full novels: All This time - a romantic suspense novel that is three-quarters completed, For the Love of Money - a mystery novel about one-quarter completed, or Shattered Hearts - mainstream women's fiction novel that's about three-quarters completed and it's the first book I started writing that was meant for publication. You can read the short blurbs on these at my Web site kimcoxauthor.com. Right now, I'm leaning toward the Lana M...

Thanks to Elizabeth Delisi , for tagging me in The Writing Process Blog Hop. Read about Elizabeth Delisi’s writing process here . At the end I’ll be tagging a few other authors, so please do follow those links to their blogs and interviews.

Spring Well Spring appears to come and go each week. Hope everyone is enjoying warm weather for a change. It was pretty warm today, around 60 degrees but warmer would've suited me better. Temperatures this week have been from the 20's to the 70's. What a range! However, the heatwave is on the way, 79 degrees by this time next week. Updates Reading, Movies, and Ideas Since the last time I wrote here in March, I have finished "The Vow on the Heron" by Jean Plaidy, the 10th book of the Plantagenet series, and started "Passage to Pontefract", the 11th book in the series. I have less than 100 pages out of 366 to go. I'm loving this series. I love books and movies with knights, kings, queens, etc., That leads me to one of my favorite shows right now "Reign" about Mary Queen of Scotts and Francis II, Prince and later King of France. My son tells me that the next "House of Night" book will be the last. I've read them all e...
