Gardening: Peas, beans, and squashes are up and doing well. The other cherry tomato plant was eaten so Saturday I sent hubby to the store and he bought a Million cherry plant and an heirloom Purple Cherokee. These plants are bigger than the cherries that were eaten so nothing should bother them.
For my SciFi readers, I finished the edits on Tested, the fourth book in the Brown Rain series and sent it off to the editor. Now I need to make the cover and get it ready to go. I’m also thinking of putting together a collection of my SciFi short stories and releasing that this year. So much to do!
I’m happy to announce that Part 2 of my western short story, Gold Dreams, is now out on http://frontiertales.com/2017/06Jun/gold_dream_2.php. Part 1 ran last month and you can find the link on the Frontier Tales home page. I’d appreciate your vote for best story!

Shout Out:
Author Kitty Boyes
I have an interview scheduled to run on Wednesday the 7th with mystery author Kitty Boyes. Her debut novel, The Sins of our Mothers; published in November 2015 had readers ask for more so she published the second book to the series; Her Father’s Daughter in March 2016. Stay tuned for book III, Her Brother’s Keeper, out in 2017. Can’t wait for the whole interview? Check out her website at https://kittyboyes.com.
