Writing Questions

I have been asked a few questions concerning web sites, plagerism and how to find more information about writing. For web sites, I have been very happy with Word Press and would recommend it to anyone. As for plagerism on web sites, other than copywriting your material I don’t have a solution. I myself don’t post anything that I wouldn’t want to be copied. For online material about writing, I don’t know, but locally we have a great bookstore that has two writing groups. Their web site is www.dogearedpagesusedbooks.com

Good luck!

‘Hatchet Woman’

The sequel to ‘Hatchet Man’ is done!!!! It has been published and is available at http://www.createspace.com/3490381  While working on the publishing process, I accidently ran across the definition of Murphy’s Law in the dictionary, and I can say it very much fit my state of mind.  I’m very glad to be finished, and I’m looking forward to starting the next book because I can’t get enough of Samantha Cross. I hope everyone out there enjoys her latest adventure as much as I have. Glance at the store and book signing pages in this web site to get more details on purchasing ‘Hatchet Woman’.

Thanks, Colleen Sugden

Chat, Chew & Chocolate

Wow, talk about fun! It was my first dinner with this group of women, and they know how to have a good time. The food at Florencia’s Pizza Bistro in Ahwatukee was fantastic as well as the conversation. If you have never tried a girl’s night out, this is the one to go to. They were voted number one girl’s night out in Phoenix Magazine. Liz Elston is a great host with tons of energy! Thank you Chat, Chew & Chocolate for a great time. I hope to see all of you soon!

Hello world!

For everyone who is a Samantha Cross fan, here is an excerpt from the first book ‘Hatchet Man’: “Time waited for her. If he had a gun, he never bothered to pull it out. She could’ve done a number of things different, but pivotal moments are defined by determining direction or effect. Her bullets hit him again and again. Karen Cane had died with her brother, but Samantha Cross lived.” Copies of ‘Hatchet Man’ can be obtained by calling 480-343-8336.
