Moving and shaking!

In case you haven't heard, yet, the LA area had a pretty good shake, rattle and roll today. Hubby and I have several family members who live there and I'm glad to report that everyone is just fine. I must admit, I kinda miss the earthquakes. Well, the little ones. My last significant one was the Northridge quake back in the early 90s. Tossed us right out of bed. If you've ever tried to make it down a flight of stairs while your home is moving, it's quite an adventure. Sure, they're scary when they're happening, and I certainly wouldn't want to be on the epicenter of a huge one, but the smaller ones are quite the heart booster. Better than a whole pot of coffee. I even guessed the magnitude range on the Northridge one when it happened!

And speaking of moving and shaking, I'm getting more and more excited about Desert Magick: Superstitions moving into book form. I'm working with my publisher now and we're pushing for an October release. So, be sure and check out my blog for updates. Meanwhile, get on over to my website at www.danadaviswriting.com and check out my latest teen audio book. It's not just for teens!

Happy Reading!

Monsoon hits Valley of the Sun!

Well, the monsoon season is in full gear here in the Valley of the Sun. Guess we should now call it the Valley of the Rain and Humidity for the next two months. To quote one of our weather guys last night was "a real gully washer!"

The weather isn't the only thing running around here. I just saw my first glimpse of the cover for Desert Magick: Superstitions and I'm thrilled. The artist still has some work to do but she's doing a fine job. I'm excited to share this new series with readers and can't wait for the finished copies to be available. And since it takes place here in the valley, those who live here might recognize a few things.

Have a wonderful weekend and stay dry out there!

Happy reading!

Happy 4th!

Happy 4th of July to all my American readers! Have a safe holiday weekend. And for those of you in the Valley of the Sun, it's going to be another scorcher so stay cool, drink lots of water, and keep that sunscreen on.
