IT WAS MEANT TO BE
We recently traveled to southern California to attend the wedding of my husband’s nephew. While at my mother-in-law’s funeral, we learned of the wedding in San Diego and decided we would make the trip. The decision to go turned out to be one of the best decisions we’ve made in recent years. There are times…

COME WHAT COME MAY
Welcome to Summer – It’s almost here. The Memorial Day weekend always signaled to me the start of something fresh and new. No school, fun days at the beach, and sleeping late. In early summer, I would go out to our wild raspberry patch in the side yard and pick the best tasting fruit…

Reality Informs Fiction: Trails in the Sand
I’m a firm believer in the subject choosing the author. When that happens, it’s best to let the muse lead me to the keyboard and allow the words to find their way to the story. Trails in the Sand stands as my testament to the process.

PTSD – IT’S A REAL AND PRESENT DANGER
Two Parkland shooting survivors are no longer surviving. A father of a Sandy Hook victim took his life this past week as well.

This weekend marked one such celebration when I realized I was surrounded by vital, thriving, funny, and loving women and men who were all hurtling toward seventy–some…

Some bits of inspiration have come from enjoying…

Happy 2019
Paddling My Way to a New Year We spent New Year’s Day kayaking on the Econofina River in north Florida. The day was foggy, and we got lost in the reeds, but we returned home refreshed and ready to begin 2019. Nature restores me and gives me hope. While I’m enjoying kayaking, yoga, golf, and…

#NewRelease from P.C. Zick
This month as summer wanes, I have two books I’ve re-released as my own. Originally, I wrote these books for Amazon’s Kindle Worlds as a part of Melissa Foster’s Remington World. This meant that Amazon owned the rights until they stopped publishing them. In July, they ended the Kindle Worlds program and returned rights…

Novels Based on Historical Facts
I’ve been attracted to studying history lately. It started as I began reading about the Civil War as I prepared presentations about my great grandfather’s Civil War experiences captured in his journal. (Civil War Journal of a Union Soldier) But it’s gone further on either side of those watershed years in United States history. As…
