Release: An Idyllic Place for Murder
by Mary Sutton / mary_sutton73
So, it’s done. I went and released Jim and Sally to the world.
Okay, that’s an overstatement. With two stories at Mysterical-e and one in Lucky Charms, I’d already released them to the world.
But now, they’re on their own. Continue reading “Release: An Idyllic Place for Murder”

Arguing with Imaginary People
by Mary Sutton / @mary_sutton73
Confession time: I argue with people who aren’t there.
In fact, these people are so “not there” that they don’t even exist.
Yes, I’m talking about my characters, people who are totally a figment of my imagination.
And I am not alone. Continue reading “Arguing with Imaginary People”
2014 Writing Goals
By Mary Sutton / @mary_sutton73
So, 2014 is two weeks old. Still a baby, but time I stop aimlessly wandering around and put some goals out there so I (and you, please) can hold myself accountable. Some people can work without going public, but I find that if I announce that I’m going to do something, I’m far more likely to do it. Now, other things may come up during the year, and if they do, I’ll adjust. That’s life. It would be foolish to plan otherwise.
That said, here are the things I know I want to accomplish this year. Continue reading “2014 Writing Goals”

by Mary Sutton / @mary_sutton73
So, brief update this week.
LUCKY CHARMS: 12 CRIME TALES
Well, I might be jumping the gun just a bit, but a release date has been set for Lucky Charms – December 2, 2013. That’s Cyber Monday for all you holiday shopping types (books of all types make superb gifts). The book will be available via all e-book outlets (Amazon, B&N, Apple, Kobo) and in print from CreateSpace. And, I’m sorry, but the cover is to die for (pun intended).

The Time has Come
by Mary Sutton / @mary_sutton73
By george, I think I’ve got it.
If you’ve been following me on Facebook or Twitter, you know that I’ve had random, episodic scenes coming to me for, oh, the last month or so. The story has, I think, finally come to together.
It is time to move Jim Duncan and Sally Castle from the world of short fiction to the novel. My main project for October will be plotting and writing the synopsis/summary for the first Laurel Highlands Mysteries novel, tentatively titled Every Other Monday is Murder.

by Mary Sutton / @mary_sutton73
It’s hard to believe, but 2013 is half over. The weather is warm, the kids are out of school, and it’s time for me to review how far I’ve come with my goals for this year. Continue reading “Goals for 2013 – at halftime”
