Hi,

I’ve made a lot of progress on The Advocate’s O_______. I started the book, wrote several chapters and decided I didn’t like the way it started. Actually, I woke up yesterday morning thinking it wasn’t right. So, I started again, but I’m still using what I wrote first, I’m just putting it a little further into the book. I’ve only done that one other time, and that was because my publisher told me to. I’m happy now with the opening.

Thank all of you who showed up for my event this past weekend in Riverside. I’m trying to schedule some other events outside of the area. I’m hoping I can work them around other travels I have planned.

I’m going to Michigan in late April because my niece is graduating from med school at Michigan State University, and she has asked me to be a “hooder” for her. I’m not exactly sure what that entails, but I’m honored to be a part of her ceremony.

Please let me know if you live in Michigan. If so, what city are you in?

P.S. THE ADVOCATE will be FREE on Kindle January 22, & 23. Please let your mystery reader friends know!

The first joke of the year!

Hi,

I hope your year is starting out well. I always start each year by telling myself that this will be the best year ever! And sometimes I’m right, but regardless it sets the tone and usually I find there are some wonderful adventures and great happenings throughout the year. So, here goes: THIS WILL BE MY BEST YEAR EVER! I hope your’s is too!

I have a good start on the next book in THE ADVOCATE SERIES, The Advocate’s O______. (I don’t have the name yet, so if you missed out on sending me an “O” word, you still can.)

For you locals, I will be in Riverside at the Convention Center this weekend 01/12 – 01/14 selling and signing. I love this event because I get to see so many of my readers. Please stop in and see me if you’re in the area.

Hi,

Words of wisdom from JP to start the new year.

That’s my plan for 2024. I’m going to go into it like I’m riding a brass rhino! Look out world, here I come. I’m making my resolutions and carrying them out.

First New Year’s Resolution: Write 3 books in The Advocate Series. That means O, P, & Q! If I put my mind to it, I can get ‘er done. I’ll jump on my brass rhino and ride!

If you have a resolution you’d care to share with me, I’d love to hear it.

Hi,

I’m ready for Halloween. This is the best I could do. Okay, maybe it wasn’t my best, but it’s a start. (I just photoshopped the hat into the picture.)

My family has been hearing my dumb jokes for years. My niece suggested I start sharing them in my blog. Feel free to comment if you like them or if you find them annoying. Here’s one for Halloween:

Liberating Lana has released both in paperback and on Kindle. My narrator is working on the Audible version, but that will take a couple of months. I’ll have the books with me at my upcoming event in Pomona California. If you live in Southern California, (or you’re visiting us) I would love to see you. It’s always fun to see my readers at events. So, stop in if you can. I’ll be at the Pomona Fall Home Show at the Fairplex, November 3-5. See event schedule below.

Happy Halloween!

Teresa

The fourth and final book in the Tuper series is here! The book is called Liberating Lana. If you’ve read the other three books in the series, MASON’S MISSING, FINDING FRANKIE, and RECOVERING RITA, you know that Lana has some big secrets. She’s been looking over her shoulder throughout the series and obviously hiding from someone. LIBERATING LANA reveals her past history. However, she’s not the only one with secrets, Tuper has a few of his own that are revealed as well.

The book will be released on October 16, 2023 and is now available for pre-order on Kindle. Just CLICK HERE or on the cover, and it will take you to straight to the book on Amazon.

Happy Reading,

Teresa

LIBERATATING LANA is the fourth and final book in The Tuper Mystery Series. Here’s the cover, my readers chose:

This was a fun series to write with the old cowboy, Tuper, and the young, spunky hacker, Lana. They keep you on your toes with their bickering, but they always come through for each other when needed.

I know you’ve all been waiting to find out what Lana has been hiding. Here’s your chance. Her story unfolds before your very eyes. But she’s not the only one with secrets; Tuper has a few of his own. If you enjoyed the first three books, you’ll love this one.

The 13th book in The Advocate series, THE ADVOCATE’S MEMORY, releases on 8/9/2022. For those of you who haven’t discovered it yet, my books are written in alphabetical order. This book puts me at the half way mark. I’m starting down the hill with the “N” book. There’s still time to submit a word suggestion for the title. Remember, it must start with N. The Advocate’s N______. I understand you don’t know what the book is going to be about–I don’t either. Your suggestions often trigger a storyline for me.

There’s also still time to pre-order The Advocate’s Memory on Kindle. It is discounted through the release date 8/9/22.

I guess it’s time for me to start writing again. Off I go…
