I'm having a book published!

[Ski Diva]

Yep, it''s coming out January 5 from Minotaur Books, an imprint of St. Martin's press, and it's called DOUBLE BLACK: A SKI DIVA MYSTERY.

I'm pretty excited. It's about a young woman who ditches her cheating fiance and moves to a Vermont ski town, where she encounters financial intrigue, bitter family warfare, and murder. And oh, yes, she skis a lot, too.

Here's the first line:

“When Stacey Curtis found the dead man in the bed, she knew it was time to get her own apartment.”

And here's the cover:

My home mountain is Okemo. It's about 7 minutes door to door.

And no, no inspiration from AZ. I wrote it last summer, before this summer's excitement. But as I said earlier, I'm working on Book #2 now (I got a 2-book deal), so you never know.......

When I fantasize about a career I can do from home,so I can live close to the skiing, writing crosses my mind. Now I have a role model. Nice work indeed.
