Can Scavenger Hunt Stop #22
Thank you for joining me for the 2016 CAN Scavenger Hunt! I’m hosting the awesome Janet Bly. Let’s dive right in to learning more about her. When did you learn you wanted to be a writer? After my late husband, Stephen, graduated from seminary and was called as pastor to his first church, I wanted to search for my God-given task. That led me on a journey of trying all kinds of ministries within the church and activities out in the community, as well as taking classes and going to conferences. One of these was Mount Hermon Christian Writers Conference …

New Release-Tailspin!
I’m excited to announce the release of the 5th book in my Mountain Cove series, TAILSPIN! The Mountain Cove series is set in southeast Alaska and surrounds the Warren siblings. In TAILSPIN, Mountain Cove readers will get to see the bush pilot, Will Pierson, AKA, Billy, get his HEA, and a secret I raised in the first book is revealed! That said, TAILSPIN is a standalone book, so you can experience the wild ride of your life without reading the other books. Coming right on the heels of TAILSPIN, is book six, the last book in the Mountain Cove series–DECEPTION. I’ve …

Romantic Suspense: Man vs. Nature
So glad you joined me as part of Harlequin’s Romantic Suspense Event! This year I celebrated a milestone—my tenth Harlequin novel. And with that, I’ve noticed a pattern in my Love Inspired Suspense novels—I love to throw nature at my characters. With almost every story, I’ve let nature play an important part in the conflict. Even in my less suspenseful sweet romances, it’s always nature and setting that catches my interest first. With the beauty and brutality of the wilderness and the weather, the unexplored and unknown, and a thousand places to get lost, there’s no other place like Alaska, …

The Mountain Cove Genesis
A couple of years ago, maybe three, I saw a news story about a helicopter pilot searching for a dangerous man on a mountain. He saw some campers in the snow, and wrote a message on his Styrofoam cup and tossed it down to warn them. ( http://news.discovery.com/adventure/survival/coffee-cup-messages-warn-mt-rainier-hikers-of-marauding-shooter.htm) Seems like there could have been a better way to communicate, but he was responding to the sense of urgency and improvised. Of course that set me on the story path. I created many different scenarios in my head while asking the following questions: Who was the helicopter pilot? Who was the …
Trust: My Word for the Year
This time of year people are often creating resolutions, or revising them. I don’t plan to revisit my same old resolutions—the ones I make every year and never seem to stick with—but I DO plan to focus on looking outside of myself, to be more proactive in reaching out to others. As a writer, home schooling mom and as an introvert, my life at home is comfortable. Maybe too comfortable, you know what I mean? I need to get uncomfortable and get out to meet my neighbors and look for opportunities to help others, pray for them, lead them to …
