What's going on here?

For the next few months, I'll be using this blog to document the writing of Wormwood, the 17th book in the China Bayles series. There'll be entries about the research (the book is set in a fictional Kentucky Shaker village), the writing, and other book-related business. If this is the kind of thing you're looking for, I'll be glad to have you along for the ride. You can join the Feedblitz email list (in the right panel, toward the bottom) to be notified of posts. If you'd rather read about herbs and such, click on over to China's website for recipes, podcasts, book reviews, information about the published books, and lots of other good stuff. Or for a wider view of the writing life and what's going on at our place in the Texas Hill Country, check out my Lifescapes blog. --Susan Albert

This will be fun.

I have never READ a writer's blog of a work in progress. :)

I can't believe you are going to find time to do yet another blog, but I am THRILLED to get a peek into a work in progress. I am looking forward to a book set in another location. Bloodroot is my favorite, too.

I live near Shakertown,,,what a beautiful setting for one of your wonderful books,,,they (the Shakers) did do herbs so well.
FYI-yesterday was election day in Kentucky.
Shakertown can now serve alcohol.

Susan, This is the website of Danville KY,,Shaker Village,,about the lifting of the alcohol ban.
Maybe one of your new characters can have a drinking binge :-)
