I don’t have a set way to approach my books. Some chapters run like movies in my head, and I write them down. Others, I have to outline before I can even begin.

I often worry about my process. Because I know authors who map out their entire book with outlines, note cards pinned to bulletin boards, or notebooks filled with clippings and handwritten chapters. My experience is a bit more haphazard.

As promised, here is the first chapter of Full Sail, the third book in the TJ Wilde trilogy. Also, because I’m in a giving mood, there is a bit of chapter two.

I think it is time to unveil the first chapter of the third book in the TJ Wilde trilogy, Full Sail. I will run it by the editor for a quick check, but it will still be the rough cut.

I was complaining this morning, to myself, that the garden seemed slow this year. I’d harvested a few jalapenos, but everything else was taking its sweet time. This morning, when I walked through the garden, I was surprised by a few tomatoes – dark cherries a friend gave me and some Early Girls.

They need to sit on the counter for a few days to fully ripen. I follow a tomato guru and in his videos, he says the flavor will be the same if they finish ripening on the counter or on the vine, but you’ll have fewer problems – bugs, weather – if you bring them in as soon as they are ripening.
