Years ago I became a member of Shelfari and LibraryThing, long before Goodreads arrived on the scene! Now, I have a Goodreads account that I visit every now and then, but forget to update as I acquire more books and only occasionally post reviews there.

I was inspired to write my first published novel by close friends who read another story I wrote and wanted a sequel. About the same time, I watched two documentaries: The Rape of Europa and The Hidden Child. These two motifs, the protection of artwork and children during World War II, tugged at my heart. In my debut novel, Where Treasure Hides, art and children are saved by …

Owen Christiansen has been in a downward spiral since an injury ended his NHL career. But a job on an Alaskan crabbing boat offers a fresh start . . . maybe even a shot at romance with Elise “Scotty” McFlynn, the captain’s daughter.

Are you a re-reader? Why, or why not? And if you are, what are some of the books you have read over and over?
Oh yes! I’ve read The Stand by Stephen King well over 30 times.
When is your optimal time to read – do you prefer to read in one long block, or do you also read for five minutes here or there when you can?
