WWII Wednesday: How Did They Carry On?

While living overseas our family took one Thanksgiving break to tour London. Since I’m married to a WWII expert and enthusiast, of course we had to visit where PM Churchill and his staff kept the country running while the German’s pummeled the city. The simple, Spartan lifestyle they maintained is at once sobering and inspiring. […]

World War II Wednesday!

Welcome to a new part of my work–my World War II fiction. I’m honored to be able to write about this pivotal area in all of our histories, and grateful to those who sacrificed so much. With the re-release of my first novel, A RENDEZVOUS TO REMEMBER,  November 2013, and the upcoming NAVY CHRISTMAS (Whidbey […]

FlashBack Friday: Naval Aviation Observer Wings

This goes waaaay back, folks. Many of you have asked what exactly I did while I was in the Navy. Remember, it was in the last century and I was um, not as “seasoned.” I like that. Yes, I’m getting spicier as the years fly by! Anyhow, I dug up this report of when I […]

A Purr-fect Book Signing

Before I ever sold one book I dreamt of how it “would be” once I’d published. I’d make the NYT bestseller list within a few months, be on Oprah (dating myself, I know), be interviewed by Charlie Rose as I’d seen him interview Robert McKee about his book STORY. And the book signings…I’d walk into […]

Do You Know What a Romvet is?

Joyce Adams Counts and I caught up at RWA in Atlanta this […]

A Little Bit of This, A Little bit of That

Okay, my editor would slay the title for this post–tres cliche! But I promised to share my RWA 2013 experiences. Rather than bore you with a long post and excruciating detail, I think a photo says so much. Take a look at this–Linda Cardillo, Tracy Wolff and I all met when we won Harlequin’s Everlasting Love […]

Romance Writers of America Atlanta GA 2013

Since 2000 I have attended RWA’s national conference whenever my life and our family’s Navy travels have allowed. The passage of time has never been more evident to me than this year, this day, this moment. Maybe it’s my impending empty nest in just over a year, or my, ahem, maturation process, but I realize […]

NAVY HOPE Chapter Twenty

Navy Hope By Geri Krotow Copyright © 2013 by Harlequin Books S.A. Chapter Twenty “To bring a soldier back from the brink of insanity, like we do with the newly returning vets, is one thing,” he began. “It’s rare that I get to see what kind of success I’ve had—the soldiers go through treatment with […]
