• Book Review Friday – Heart of Palm

  Laura Lee Smith’s Heart of Palm captured my heart first with its setting in north Florida where I lived for thirty years, and second, with its quirky Bravo family drawn in the best of southern family traditions.

  By Patricia Zick @PCZick I’m still here even though I’m not posting as much. Summertime and the living is anything but easy around my house. The garden is starting to produce, the boat is in the slip, and the kayaks beckon every time I walk by them. Saturday we spent a portion of the day […]

• The Wise Writer Does Not Make the Oprah Angry

  By Patricia Zick @PCZick When I began my writing career, somewhere in the back on my mind I still held the romantic vision of myself typing on a manual typewriter lost all day in the world I would create on the page. If only. When my first novel came out in 2000, my publisher wrote […]
