In which I sleep my life away…
When I’m sick, I sleep. A lot. Hours and hours of my life the last two weeks have been spent with my eyes closed, and dreams filling my head. Part of me feels that I should feel guilty about this.

Why is it that we always feel guilty when we’re doing something good for us or that we enjoy. Why is there that part of us that keeps thinking “I could be doing something better right now.” that…

Spotlight on: Sandra Brannan
Q&A with Sandra Brannan author of In the Belly of Jonah *** 1) Tell us about In the Belly of Jonah and the other books in the series. My novel In the Belly of Jonah is a fast-paced mystery with what I hope readers will find to be a likable protagonist and an intricately woven narrative brimming with bizarre yet believable twists. The first in a series, the book lays the groundwork for Liv Bergen, amateur sleuth, and her budding romantic interest in FBI Agent Streeter Pierce.
