Oops, I did it again. I played with my heart (~158 bpm). I ran a marathon yesterday.

Why do I run marathons?

It was a wonderful end to #ThrillerFest XX for me when James Patterson joined our International Thriller Writers Organization #BizFest2025 group for a photo.
Authors: I highly recommend signing up for BizFest in 2026!!!

Authors, agents, editors, marketers, and others stretch back as far as the eye can see.
This is the most supportive group of people I've ever been a part of, from the first time writer to the bestselling author, the rising tide raises all boats.

I'm leaving Manhattan, NY today without having seen The Outsiders the Musical. As a kid, I read a lot of S.E. Hinton books - "That Was Then, This Is Now" "Rumblefish" "Tex" ...
But, I'll be back for ThrillerFest.
Anyone else an Outsiders fan?

My brother gave me an incredible mug. It keeps coffee warm for two days . . . Saturday, I drove 8 hours to Montana, ran a marathon Sunday, then I drove home right afterward.

I couldn't have done it without the mug of coffee My brother is the best.

Typing, "The End" on another book . . . and now the real work begins. Editing. But first, it's time for a chocolate muffin. Life is good.

My medal from the Vermont City Marathon today, and more important, my celebration cookie. Say goodbye, Cookie. I'm about to eat you . . .

I use to clean at Motel 6:
Lotsa stories:
- I turned away prostitutes and their "Johns"
- I helped truckers who'd never learned to read check-in
- I watched a man who'd escaped from a mental health facility get kicked out of his room at the 30 day stay limit.
