Features: How a Book Comes to Be, a discussion of the writing of one or more of my books, answering the most frequently asked questions: Where do you get your ideas? Do you use real people in your books? Real events? How do you research a historical novel? How do you write a mystery? And finally, since many of my books feature a ghost or a paranormal experience: Do you really believe in ghosts and the supernatural?

A lively, humorous lecture, with plenty of time allotted for questions and audience participation.
