First up, tell us a bit about yourself.I’m a crime writer and academic. I’m also a proud wife, mother, and grandmother. Although I live in California, I grew up on the US East Coast, so my books are set there. Favourite genre/s to read or write?Most definitely crime fiction. I’ve been reading in the genre … Continue reading Interrogation file: Margot Kinberg
Am writing
Hey ho silver lining.
I've been writing quite a bit lately. [FFS] is coming along nicely. I had to go back and write three new chapters in the beginning to satisfy my gut feeling that it didn't start early enough and add a few other things that I knew I needed to mention, early. I did that. It works … Continue reading Hey ho silver lining.
Smoke alarms and random thoughts
It's one of those weird days. Kind of disjointed. Not sure why but every now and then days like that appear. This morning I was writing chapter summaries to try and see something I thought I would find in [Foxtrot Foxtrot Sierra], I sort of found what I was looking for ... turns out my … Continue reading Smoke alarms and random thoughts
Autumn has arrived.
This morning is a clear blue sky autumn day. The kind I love. Crisp and beautiful. I'm sitting having a coffee with a Birman in my lap. She's making typing difficult and she doesn't care. There are worse problems to have. Last night was spent with friends. Laughing. Drinking a little bit. Eating delicious corned … Continue reading Autumn has arrived.
Magic formula?
I've been a bit hopeless at blogging (and also writing) for the last few weeks. Possibly a few things causing apathy. Sometimes it's all too much, and to be honest, it feels like a waste of time. As much as I love writing and enjoy the VT Series characters, I'd also like proper sales. That … Continue reading Magic formula?
Is it worthwhile?
Talk about a question that is wide open! 🙂 Anyway, I was thinking about boxed sets - are they boxed sets though? Or are they an omnibus? I created two 'boxed sets' for the Veronica Tracey Spy/PI series - two books each. Quite fun to make really. I suppose I should do the same for … Continue reading Is it worthwhile?

Guess we will see!I do need to make a carrot cake for grandson 2 who is coming over tomorrow for cake (that as yet doesn't exist). 🙂 … Continue reading Let it be …
Avenues and alleyways
I'm reading a book. I know, shocker!It's got a main character who has migraine disorder. It's not one of my FBI-Byte Series books. What? 🙂 Where I left off last night the main character had an icepick migraine. (They are evil fuckers but they only last seconds.) So far, I've had every type of migraine … Continue reading Avenues and alleyways
It’s all fun and games …
... until your phone won't charge. No fun to be had then. I can't afford to replace it at the moment so all my fingers are crossed that turning it off and back on works! 🙂 I know it's been misbehaving and not allowing calls through at times - of course I don't know it's … Continue reading It’s all fun and games …
Book trailers
Self-explanatory post heading today. 🙂 As you probably know, I love a book trailer. I love making them. It's the fun part of writing and I won't give it away. You also know how much I despise 'digital marketing' dickheads. I'm not alone in that. Authors do not like being DM'd on every fucking platform … Continue reading Book trailers
