Texas Twang Verses Drawl  I don't think that I realized how contentious the

I don't think that I realized how contentious the words "drawl" and "twang" were when it came to Texas accents until I started writing about them. In my experience, "drawl" referred to Southern accents as a whole, while Texas got its own category as a "Texas Twang."

African Americans, Texas history and trying to do the right thing This is

This is somewhat related to my series set in Madison, TX. One of the things I wanted to focus on in my contemporary romances was the complicated history Texas has with its history. This morning, I noticed this on my newsletter feed.

Save as much as you can. Pull up everybody. We need all of us to succeed in order to succeed. Try to rectify the wrongs you've done in the past the best you can. Admit when you were wrong and try to do better.

I'm very proud to say that even with all of the hoops and setbacks, the Saving Madison Series will be available this July 7th on Amazon.

The entire series, Books 1-8, will be available on Kindle Unlimited through the end of 2025. If you're a KU subscriber, you can borrow and binge to your heart's content.

Up next, this September, my second series will be available. Keep watching for updates on covers and titles.
