All good books have one thing in common – they are truer than if they had really happened.

Two:
“I was tired of seeing the Graces always depicted as beautiful young things. I think wisdom comes with age and life and pain. And knowing what matters.”

I’ve been working hard on my WIPs and don’t have much left over for my dear blog, so I thought I’d share three quotes today.
I particularly like the last one. I wonder how I could write such a sentence for myself. I suspect it would read: I specialize in passionate murders*** in intrigue. (I can’t seem to find the word for ***. Maybe “shrouded”, but how do you shroud a murder??? You see what I mean about not having much left over. <grin>
Hope you enjoy the quotes.
Jo-Ann, you absolutely shroud a murder (cloaked, smothered,covered, sorounded by, etc.) intrigue. No one goes out and advertises the thing. (At least I can’t think of a reason for the murderer to do that, but perhaps that can be the seed of a story. LOL ) Also short on brain cells. Lost a beloved granddog yesterday. My daughter’s 14 year old black, Miniature Schnauzer, Harvey went to chase squirrels (sp?) in heaven. A real sweetheart. Loved his momma and her kids. Even knowing he’s better off, it hurts. 🙁

My sincere condolences. Losing a beloved grandpet hurts.
Thanks for the tip about shroud. I was really stretching there LOL.
Best Wishes
