Snippet: After she set her glass down, Lathen brushed a couple strands of hair out of her eyes and searched her face. “Are you all right?”
“I’m tired, my wedding is in a couple weeks, I have ghosts fighting over who is going to do what. Guests that have no idea the place is haunted and… Your family and pack, my parents, Gwen… To top it all off, the head of my clan, who is a #ghost, is sitting in front of me wanting to know who is coming to the wedding and whether the ghosts will be outed.

“When you put it that way.” Lathen chuckled. “It sounds just a bit… I don’t know…crazy?” His right eyebrow winged up. She saw mischief sparkle in his eyes. “We could still elope,” he offered.

NaNoWriMo 2021-A Tale of 50,000 Words in 30 Days-WOW!
Along with millions of writers around the world, (okay maybe not millions, but close) I’m participating in National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWrimo). Twenty-sixth day and I’m at 52,066 words. Yippee!! Another successful year! Thank you so much for your support!
A challenge to
write fifty-thousand words in thirty days. For weeks, our minds have worked out the logistics of the story, our fingers are twitching to tap that keyboard and kick off the race to our latest novel. The National Novel Writing Month challenge is a great confidence builder and something we writers look forward to November 1st every year. 2021 is a bit different with COVID19, social distancing, and write-ins going virtual.
NaNoWriMo as it’s fondly referred to has become somewhat of a tradition for me starting in 2010. I’ve made my goal of at least 50,000 words every year since with the exception of 2013. That year I failed miserably at only 17000 words. My day job was a monster, the hours were long, and by the time I arrived home, I was the monster. Anyone know what I mean? But I digress, at 17,000 I still had a working story, plot and characters. Yeah! Finished it up in the months that followed, polished the manuscript and submitted it. Since that time, I left the monster of a day job and writing is now my full-time job, and I love it. A Witch’s Quandary is my 15th novel since my debut novel, A Demon’s Witch release in September of 2015.
Fifteen novels that NaNoWriMo helped me to create have been published by The Wild Rose Press. Last year’s NaNo project, A Witch’s Quandary was released July 13, 2021. Yippee! Sixth book in A Demon’s Witch Series!
Check out the trailer:
Also another one of my NaNo Projects An Angel’s Wylder Assignment (part of the WYlder West Multi-author Series) will release in January 2022. Something a little different for me, its a historical, western, time travel, fantasy, mystery adventure. Whew! Watch for it!
Psssst…. to help you with your holiday shopping, my e-book of A Magic Redemption (5th book in A Demon’s Witch Series) is on sale beginning November 3th for 99 cents for a limited time at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and itunes. Download a copy today and join the magical, romantic fantasy adventure, you’ll never want to leave!
This year for NaNoWriMo I’ll be working on Merringue Snofwflake Magic, for the Christmas Cookie Series a Paranormal Romance/Mystery. Also working on my first cozy mystery.
I’m excited to share Paul and Trinity’s story in Chocolate Raspberry Magic, 4th book in A Witch’s Journey Series. A return to the world of Pepper and Lathen and wildlife rescue, which are all available in audiobook!
Along with the Romance Writers of America and Pikes Peak Writers group, who gave me the tools, NaNoWriMo gave me the confidence needed to stick my toe in the murky waters of the publishing industry. The 50,000 words, approximately 1,667 per day, usually is three-quarters of a pretty darn good novel. Each year I build on what I’ve learned throughout the year and use it to complete the NaNoWriMo challenge. The camaraderie among participants is phenomenal making the challenge a fun way to kick off the holidays!
Wish me luck! Keep checking back for updates on my progress this year. Will I make the 50,000 words? Only time will tell, but you can bet I’ll do my best! I know you’ll be cheering me on! If you have a chance, I’d love you to leave me comments of encouragement.
Have a fun and safe Thanksgiving! Eat lots of turkey and enjoy family and friends. After all that’s what its all about!

Redford Falls Series by Darlene Fredette
Happy Holidays! Boy do I have a treat for you today. Darlene Fredette author of Redford Falls Series stopped by to talk about her series. Pull up a chair, grab a drink of your choice from the cooler, a Chocolate Chip or Peanut Butter cookie from the plate, and let’s find out a little about Darlene and her Redford Falls Series.
Why did you choose the cover concept you did?
I really like book covers that have a couple and a scene. The couple should have a romantic feel and the bottom should have something that reflects an element in the story. I also wanted ‘A Redford Falls Story’ to appear in the same spot on the covers to keep a similar theme within the series. I sent my cover artist two samples of what I was hoping for, and when she sent me the first cover design, I was thrilled! She hit the ball out of the ball park with that cover and the following three. The couples and the scenes couldn’t be more perfect. For me, as an author, there’s nothing more exciting than to receive your cover and see your story come to life in a picture.
Do you see yourself in your characters?
Oh, heck no. My characters definitely have more interesting lives, lol.
Where do your story ideas come from? If they come to you in the middle of the night, do you get up and write them all down?
My overactive imagination gives me a glimpse of a story idea, triggered from almost anything and out of nowhere. But it’s when I’m doing housework, where the magic begins. At the beginning of cleaning, the characters and plot take shape. By the end of cleaning, I have most of the story mapped out in my head. I try not to let new stories or current story ideas develop in the middle of the night, because I don’t get up to write them down, and by the time I get up, I’ve forgotten what I had been thinking about.
Do you find it easier to write from a male or female point of view? Why?
I like to write stories with both the male’s and female’s point of views, mainly because I enjoy reading books that are in both. I find it gives readers a look into the heads of both main characters and places the reader in the story.
Okay, you’re casting the movie version of your novel – who would you choose for the main characters? We’re talking dream cast.
The character visions for the first four books in my Redford Falls series were thought about quite a while ago, but here’s my dream cast for each one.
His Candy Christmas – Josh Duhamel and Rachel McAdams
Kissed By Winter – Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron
Under The Apple Blossoms – Colin O’Doughlin and Meghan Ory
A Recipe For Forever – Ryan Paevey and Evangeline Lilly

Now tell us a little about the Redford Falls Series.
His Candy Christmas
A Redford Falls Story ~ Book 1
Who knew returning home would contain a cool nip in the air, irresistible chocolate, and a Santa suit?
It’s going to take more than a few pieces of chocolate to fill this Scrooge’s heart with Christmas cheer. Luckily Candy has a whole shop full.
Candice Cane is not proud of the way she acted after her last encounter with Jackson Frost. Sure revenge was fun, but now Jackson is angry and looking for answers, and standing on the welcome mat in her chocolate shop. Now he’s after some revenge of his own.
Jackson returned to his small hometown for one reason and one reason only. So, he’s not sure how he ended up in a Santa suit in the middle of a chocolate shop, at the behest of its beautiful owner, instead of high-tailing it back to the city as fast as he can.
Kissed By Winter ~ A Redford Falls Story ~ Book 2
A woman who knows what she wants and a man who knows what he needs.
She’s been on a flight from hell for over eight hours, lost four hours of daylight, and arrived in temperatures twenty degrees lower than accustomed to. Disliking winter for a reason she refuses to discuss, Danielle Lerato would rather be anywhere than in Redford Falls. She needs to get the job done and return home before getting caught up in the small town’s charm—and the arms of the handsome, brown-eyed restaurant owner.
Andrew Bailey’s first encounter with the buttery blonde didn’t go so well, and he well-remembers the chill of the glass of water she dumped over his head. Now, nine months later, a raging storm drops Danielle back into his life. She’s determined to leave, but he’ll do whatever it takes to convince her to fall in love with Redford Falls…and him.
Under The Apple Blossoms ~ A Redford Falls Story ~ Book 3
This spring the blossoms aren’t the only thing blooming in Redford Falls.
A tragic accident tore them apart. She left him behind and broke his heart. Is he strong enough to risk it again?
Police officer, Tyler Kringle, keeps his heart locked behind bars. His first and only love, Maripier Nadeau, left Redford Falls many years ago after a family tragedy. She moved on, leaving him to pick up the shattered pieces of his heart. But now Maripier is home to care for her father and to attend a dedication ceremony in her mother’s honour. Her return rattles Tyler’s cage, causing old emotions to resurface. Once he discovers the truth from the past, can he reclaim the love of his life and lock-down their future before she leaves again?
A Recipe For Forever ~ A Redford Falls Story ~ Book 4
She has one last hope – a small, family-run bakery that might just be baking up second chances.
Dwindling finances has Jess Robinson running out of options. With a past filled with failures, she longs for a new beginning. Applying for a job she isn’t qualified for may be another crazy mistake, but at this point Jess has nothing to lose.
Juggling two jobs, Travis Cooper has absolutely no time for a relationship and isn’t looking for one. But when his mother hires an unqualified baker, he has more to worry about than three-tiered wedding cakes and fighting fires. Will he break his own no-dating-employees rule and make a little room in his life for love?
