Chantel Aubuchon is Mayor of Elkhorn. Taking on the job handed down to her from her father, she manages her position with pride as she attempts to keep her town afloat. But when gold is discovered on the Powder River she soon finds her small town threatened by the approaching mines. Destruction of the land surrounding her town is slowly turning Elkhorn into a ghost town. Searching for a way to insure her town’s survival she resorts to desperate measures. Harper Barnes is the source of Elkhorn’s problem. Owning nearly all the mines along the river, he is the only one that can stop the destruction before it reaches her town. In her desperation, Chantel finds herself hidden underneath a bandana and behind a pistol. Little does she know that by robbing the man responsible for her town’s demise she will set off a series of events that will not only prove to her that first impressions should never be trusted, but that love can oftentimes be found where we least expect it.Whiskey Creek Press

survey

How many of you read, what you write?
I mean, do you read books in the same genre that you write?
Of course, I do. But I have read a lot of interesting articles out there in cyber-land where some authors say they never read. So, I'm curious. Do you read what you write, or do you even read?
And, what are your thoughts about those who write, and don't read?


Have a nice night,
Diane

Mapping Your World

Hi, and good morning.

As I sat down to start my new manuscript I tried to come up with some ideas on how to create my world. Since the story is Urban Fantasy, I needed to get a grip on what my characters are seeing. So,
I decided to Map their world.
To do this, I read an article from Fiction Factor that was very helpful. Here's the link.

Have a great day!

P.S.: Lets all pray for Japan and everyone hit by the devastation of the earthquake.
