I haven't had time to post because 1. I'm working on my new book, the next mystery in my Braga series. I have about one-fourth to go. and 2. My husband and I are trying to learn Portuguese - a beautiful-but-not-easy language for people who didn't grow up hearing it.
But I have GOOD NEWS: Imogene and the Case of the Missing Pearls is now an AUDIO BOOK. The narrator, the wonderful Beverly Matthews, is British, and it really makes my heart flip-flop to hear all my characters speaking with bonafide English accents.
I will be posting more about this, around the above two challenges, but here is a link if you want to listen to it for free (temporary opportunity). It's going to also be highlighted on THIF this coming Friday, and I can tell you more about it then. HERE IS THE LINK
Don't give up on me; I am not abandoning blogging. I will also be reviewing some great Sherlock Holmes pastiches here as I progress to the end of my book.
I do apologize for not having any pictures to share. Braga is popping out in springtime blooms and I, alas, have my nose to the grindstone and my camera in the drawer.
I hope everyone is well and safe from the endless challenges of the ever-evolving Covid. I will try to get around to your blogs this week, because I miss my blogging friends!

I couldn't find a link, Elizabeth, but I would love to hear a real English voice again. Glad you are working on a new book and look forward to more to come from your pen (so to speak).
That's very exciting! I don't listen to audio books as a general rule, but I know a LOT of people do. I couldn't find the link to listen. Did you forget to put it in or am I missing something? Anyway, congrats! Miss you.
Hi, Elizabeth, yes, I forgot to include the link. Sorry! thanks for stopping by, and thanks for the good wishes.
Hi, Rosi, I sure did forget. The link is included now. Thanks for stopping by.
Thanks for the update and link, Elizabeth.
Woo Hoo! Congratulations, Elizabeth. That's wonderful news about the audio and nearly having your book finished.
Learning, Portuguese. Wow. Good on you.
Hi Elizabeth, its okay, sometimes we need to take it easy. Learning new languages is very difficult for me.
Sandra, it's seems funny, but in these post-retirement years, I never expected to be so busy. And then I was. And then, after the move, I didn't really expect to be so busy. And now I am. So now I make no promises. It looks like I'm going to be busy. :-)
Hi, Rachna, thanks for stopping by. I like languages and trying to learn them, but I won't say learning a new language is easy for me, either. It takes a lot of commitment. Sigh. Hope all is going well with you and your family.
