Live to Love on the Edge Blog

I’m hard at work on a new story that will be released as part of CJ Lyon’s Shadow Ops world. Very excited to be working with CJ on this project. When I was trying to work up a story, I realized that the elements for it were staring me right in the face every day, namely, the men and women of the Joint Task Force Empire Shield.

The Task Force was formed after the September 11 attacks and is headquartered in Fort Hamilton in Brooklyn. This is a National Guard task force that is on state active duty (SAD). Check out these photos of the task force training and on duty.

The heroine in my story is a Warrant Officer in the New York Army National Guard. Can’t wait to finish the story and see what happens!

LOL! I bet you don’t. Thank you for indulging me with some time off. It was truly a very hectic time as I was busy researching a new book, swamped with my legal work and very hands-on with building and installing some fixtures for my daughter’s new surf and skate shop location. I love working with my hands and as tiring as it was, it was very satisfying to see the location taking shape.

Here are some photos of the fixtures and shelving I put together. My daughter had some great ideas for them and I was glad to help.

I’m in the midst of a number of work, writing and moving issues and will be taking a little break from the blog. Don’t worry, though! I’ll be back after Memorial Day, bright and energized. Thanks for your understanding!
