๐Ÿ“š Welcome, new followers! I was absolutely delighted to spend an afternoon with The Wisconsin Explorer in Genesee Depot, Wisconsin. And THRILLED to see so many positive comments about such a fantastic village. From Sally's to The Mill to Cornerstone to Ten Chimneys, it's wonderful to see how many people love this place!

๐Ÿ’– It's right on Highway 83. You cannot miss the shops. Stop in at the Mill, shop for one of a kind treasures -- or my funny mysteries! -- have lunch, and then stop at Sally's for something to take home!

๐Ÿ“š The Wisconsin Explorer stopped into The Mill Collective in Genesee Depot, Wisconsin, earlier this month. They're sharing this delightful village, including the unique boutique, The Mill Collective, a craft mall that's a bit vintage, a bit artsy, and a bit bookish. My mysteries, screwball comedy, and children's horse book are there. Along with handmade soaps, candles, art, photography, and much more. Stop in on your way through town. It's located right off Highway 83. Love to see you!

๐ŸŒ… Where it ALL started. Sunrises. From the dusty windows of an old house with an amazing view.

๐ŸŒ… The view is where my published author journey began. I was a college writing instructor. Had to start over on my late 40s. Got a masters. God knew what I needed when. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

๐ŸŒ… And here we are. Five books later and three more on the way in 2027.

๐ŸŒ… All inspired by this view.

๐Ÿ“š Itโ€™s true. The Backyard Model Mysteries DO have personalities. And Iโ€™m so proud of their awardsโ€”especially the Humor Medal from IBPA.

๐Ÿ“š Theyโ€™re funny mysteries set in Wisconsin. The Devil Wears Prada meets a Wisconsin supper club.

๐Ÿ“š And theyโ€™re available at your local indie bookstore.

๐Ÿ“š Good morning. Here's hoping a cozy bookstore is in your future this week!

๐Ÿ“š This indie bookstore is called The Republic of Letters located in Mineral Point, Wisconsin. A shop and a village worth of visit this fall! The Driftless Area of Wisconsin is a one-of-a-kind location in the USA. And stunning in the fall!

๐Ÿ“šYou can shop for your favorite books in the area, too. If they don't have The Backyard Model Mysteries in stock, they can order them for you!

๐Ÿ’– Happy Monday! x, TKS
