It’s that time of year again! The time that I wait for rather anxiously…and the time that I’m in rather desperate need of this year: Writing Retreat Time!
Today I’m en route to Kansas City, where my best friend, the fantabulous Stephanie Morrill, will pick me up from the airport. After dropping off her kids and exchanging cars, LOL, we’ll check in to a lovely little Airbnb and vanish from the world for a few beautiful, story-filled days.

At last year’s writing retreat. Ice cream is an important incentive! We get a bowl when we hit 10K in a day.

There will be brainstorming. There will be laughter. There will be ice cream and Kansas City BBQ and amazing coffee from her parents’ coffee shop.

But most of all, there will be many, many uninterrupted hours of writing.
This year, I need to finish up my next book in the Guideposts series, Secrets of Wayfarers Inn. I’m working on book 20 right now, entitled There’s No Place Like Holmes–a Sherlock-themed mystery, in case you couldn’t tell. 😉 A book which is due 2 days after I return home, so…yeah. If you think of it, say a prayer that the words come easily and smoothly and I can get this baby done!
There will be no other blogs posting until I’m home again, but if you’re curious about how it’s going, I’ll be posting quick updates to social media!
See you back here next week!
