Phyllis Zimbler Miller For Mother’s Day: Separating Sharon Gold and Phyllis Zimbler Miller

In honor of Mother’s Day and Father’s Day and my parents Ruth and Albert Zimbler, I thought I’d reveal some of the differences between my fictional character Sharon Gold in MRS. LIEUTENANT and myself. While Sharon Gold’s experiences as a new army officer’s wife in the spring of 1970 are based on my own, Sharon’s background is different than mine. Sharon was an anti-Vietnam War protester when she met Robert, an ROTC cadet at Michigan State. I was never an anti-Vietnam War protester. In fact, I w… Continue

Linda Merlino Blog Out-of-the-Blue

Stuff happens. Thomas Carlyle once called it “the lightening bolt that comes out of a clear blue sky.” Everyday we wake up and have no knowledge of how our day will transpire, or how it will end. Most days it is the same old routine, get up, go to work, take care of the kids, read the paper, take the train, traffic, on and on…a routine, a boring predictable routine called daily life. But some times we get side swiped, something or someone comes “out-of-the-blue” to turn our ordinary life on its… Continue

Debbie Wallace Little Gin Gin

Isn't so little anymore. I had to take her to the vet the other day and she weighs in at almost 12 pounds. I was surprised it wasn't more because she seems so much bigger and feels a lot heavier than Woofy. And the reason I had to take her to the vet? This is funny. Because my hubby was worried she had a tumor. She has this big sack that hangs from her belly and sways back and forth when she walks. I told him I'll take her in but that they're probably going to charge me $32 just to tell me she's… Continue

Phyllis Zimbler Miller Salute to All Military Spouses on Military Spouse Appreciation Day

In my last post I promised to describe more of my interview with Anita Rufus of the Anita Rufus Show on KNewsRadio in Palm Springs, California. And I’ll get to that promise in a moment. First I want to share something I just learned – today is Military Spouse Appreciation Day. According to Spousebuzz, President Regan in 1984 declared the Friday before Mother’s Day as Military Spouse Appreciation Day. In a guest blog on www.Spousebuzz.com, Lieutenant General William Caldwell, Commanding General… Continue

Phyllis Zimbler Miller I Became a Mrs. Lieutenant 38 Years Ago Today

I had planned to write this post about my interview yesterday by Anita Rufus of the Anita Rufus Show, KNewsRadio, Palm Springs. (And I will get to that interview.) Yet, as I typed today’s date for my own records, I realized that my husband officially began active army duty 38 years ago today. After all this time I can’t remember how I felt the first time Mitch left our furnished apartment in Muldraugh, Kentucky, to be officially on active duty. Instead, here’s what Sharon Gold thinks of her hus… Continue

Kidnapping and murder have devoured her fat soul. My skillfully written crime fiction novel is heart pounding, thought provoking, jaw dropping, and wickedly informative. Its funny buy very serious.

Peg Herring Freneticity

I made up the word, but if Shakespeare and Poe can do it, so can I. My definition is "the feeling that the pace of life has surpassed one's ability to absorb it." Marketing a book can be all-consuming. The author should do so many things that she might have to give up some other things in order to cope: things like eating dinner and bathing. Every time one thing is handled, another comes to mind. The newly-published author should be visiting/contacting bookstores, libraries, and groups of reade… Continue

Peg Herring Readers Appreciate the Simple Things

I'm reading a book by Beverle Graves Myers. Her protagonist, Tito, was castrated as a youth so that his beautiful operatic voice would not change. Ouch. Bev's plots are good and her history fascinating, but I'd like to comment on an aspect that might be overlooked. She remembers to remind the reader periodically of who the characters are. I'm always reading more than one book, and I read in snatches: fifteen minutes here, a half hour there. Plots are easy, at least the good ones are. I'm back i… Continue

How is everyone today? The semester here at the university I work for us coming to a close. This means that I get to work to catch up on everything, clean everything up, then just sort of keep things going for a bit, until time comes to prepare for the fall. This is a precious time because I might actually get some writing done. :) What I've been finding hard lately is balancing between socializing, trying to convince people that Blue Moon is worth a look, and writing the next novel.

Fran Shaff 5 Tips for Series Writing

Series writing can get complicated. Characters, settings, dates, timelines, subplots, idiosyncracies-- Writing a series is a big challenge. If, after much deliberation, you decide series writing is for you, here are a few tips to make your work a bit easier. 1. Try to keep things as simple as possible. Creating overly-complex characters, settings, family trees and subplots will only make your reader work harder than she should have to in order to keep everything straight.

Peg Herring When People Say, "I Don't Read"

As a reader, you probably turn your estimation of that person down a notch. We're a bit snobby, we readers, and we think that anyone who doesn't read is a few books short of a bookshelf. I spoke on the topic yesterday at the request of a local organization. I began unsure of how much the average reader knows about the average non-reader, and I learned that my audience hadn't thought about it much. We tend to think non-readers can't read. As an educator of many years' experience, I've pondered,… Continue

I confess, I'm a doubter, a worrier, and a fretter. I've spent my life trying to internalize my father's advice: "If you worry and it doesn't happen, you worried for nothing. If you worry and it happens, you didn't change anything by worrying." I'm better now, being older and having lived through enough stuff that I realize Dad was right. Still, when my writing isn't in front of me I find myself fretting over its inadequacies. "There isn't enough character development for Ms. A. I should give m… Continue

Marian Allen Working Vacation

I don't "go to business", as a New York boss I used to have would say. Since Charlie and I married, I stayed home and took care of the house and kids. That's the way I like it. I'm a putterer. While he was at work and the kids were in school, I could write and write and write. Then he retired and the kids went to college or off into the wide world, and I had less time--and less and less. My precious la
