I have had a wonderful year. Well Read, Then Dead won the Agatha Award for Best First Novel. Caught Read-Handed was released to a warm welcome from the reading public. And I joined acclaimed novelist Laura Childs in writing the thirteenth novel in her scrapbooking series, Parchment and Old Lace.

So I wish a joyful month for all of us filled with hope and prayer and love. May the spirit of the season fill our hearts and surround our spirits and may we truly be neighbors to each other.
