Book News:
• Murder by the Mile continues! I mean, I haven't given up on writing it. It's changed quite a bit from where I started, but the changes make the mystery sharper, smarter, and cozier. I appreciate the people who are supporting me in this continuation of the Measurements of Murder™ series. You keep telling me that you can't wait to read it; trust me, I can't wait for you to read it, too.
• I am also working on the next Floozy, tentatively titled Floozy Takes A Ramble. It's scheduled for publication in late 2025 or early 2026.
• You can find Floozy Goes Forth and all my other books online and at Your Independent Bookstores. You can also check with your local library. If my books aren't on the shelves―for shame!―the library can get them for you through interlibrary loan. Just ask!

Personal news:
• Another birthday coming up next month. Amazing how good I look when everyone else my age looks so old.
Important Beauty Tips:
1. Keep the lights dim in your house.
2. Remove all the mirrors, particularly the ones near your shower.
3. Befriend kind people with bad eyesight.
• Tawny, the little tomcat we adopted, is much better and running around the house like a mad cat. He can be sweet and loving. He can also be bitey and scratchy. We're working on socialization; it's like training a teenager, but not as much angst.
• Have you picked up Dawn of Shadows by Wendy Blanton yet? If you like dashing dragons, evil witches, walking dead, and dashing warriors, buy this!
• Decided to not use the ARC browser regularly. Still messing with it some, but not ready to replace Chrome. Hate the learning curve. Download ARC HERE and see what you think.
• Trying to eat cleaner these days. Cutting back on carbs and processed foods. Eating more veggies. Yeah, I know. It's like I've gone mad. Feels that way sometimes, too.
• A shout-out to my fellow writers who meet three times a week for an hour of writing, editing, researching, etc., in Writing Room Prime. It's amazing how much we do in those three hours a week. It's commitment with accountability. Like a romantic relationship but not soul crushing.
Jokes of the Month:
Dale: "What's orange and sounds like a parrot?"
Kyra: "What?"
Dale: "Carrot."
A man goes to the circus.
After the show, he speaks to the manager and asks for a job.
"Okay, what can you do?" the manager asks.
"I can do great bird impressions," the man replies and makes a few bird sounds.
"Sorry. That's not good enough for the circus."
"Oh well, thanks anyway," the man says...and flies away.
Quotes of the Month:
“If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away." ~ Henry David Thoreau
“Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago." ~ Warren Buffett
May June be good for you and yours. We'll discuss stuff again in July.
