Morgan’ s Corner( Cont’ d)
Working with Cheryl Pierson Cuccio and Rob Cuccio to tell their story has been an amazing experience. Having helped other abuse survivors tell their story, I know how hard it is for them and that it typically increases the occurrences of PTSD flare-ups. They were real troupers, struggling through every difficult passage. There were times when all three of us were crying as we proofed a particularly emotional passage. And, now that the book is out, it is doing what Cheryl and Rob hoped. Comments are pouring in from both abuse survivors, those who lost someone to heart failure, and people who had no idea of what an abuse survivor has endured. We thank them all.

We had a wonderful team: Karen Phillips designed the dynamic cover and our editor Tony Held found even the tiniest errors during the proofing process.
On New Year’ s Day, the debut episode of the new Discovery ID Channel series, I, Witness, was an episode featuring Cheryl. Rob will appear in the finale episode on February 8 at 6 pm PST / 9 pm EST.
Speaking of Discovery ID Channel, yours truly will be the co-narrator of the finale episode for the new season of A Crime to Remember. I have no idea how much of my taping will be included, but watch for it on January 31, 7pm PST / 10 pm EST. It is the episode about Paul Perveler.
And there is more. In December my sister Phyllice Bradner and I signed contracts with Books in Motion for the audio books of two more Silver Sisters Mysteries— Vanishing Act in Vegas, and Diamonds in the Dumpster. That means when they are released, all four of the existing zany Silver Sisters Mysteries will be available in paperback, Kindle and audio book. Look for them to also be available in other eBook platforms early in the year. The fifth book will enter planning stages in February.
The decision has been made to change from publishing Writers Tricks of the Trade bi-monthly to quarterly, so as you can see, this is the Winter issue. Future issues will publish on April 15, July 15 and October 15.
Keep writing!
