Days in Comfort
Due to the delight of my son’s upcoming wedding to a girl from Boerne, Texas, we were able to stretch several days of wanderings, musings, and refreshments into a research trip to Comfort. Though I write fictional stories set there, the town of Comfort, Texas is quite real. They’d be miffed if you thought otherwise. […]

Comfort Foods Offers a Delicious Read
The beginning of a book release always makes me ill. All the fun I had in writing, then the pain of editing, crashes in together in some weird surreal experience when the finished book arrives at my house.
