Winter sunset, Hudson Valley, NY

Nice peaceful walk along the Ashokan Reservoir today

Ok I started this account about a year ago and haven't done much on it. Hoping with the influx of new people it will be more lively.

Today is the day to celebrate the great writer group Sisters in Crime! I joined this past year and am enjoying the support, advice, and network of fabulous authors of mystery and suspense #WeLoveSinC @sincnational.bsky.social

I wrote a Christmas Ghost Story! Yep, my novella "The Ghost of Madison Avenue" takes place in NYC in December 1912 with the main character, Helen O'Neill, seeing things at the Morgan Museum. :) It's like The Gilded Age meets A Night At the Museum www.amazon.com/Ghost-Madiso...

I visited the Mills Mansion at Staatsburgh in the Hudson Valley yesterday. An amazing 1890s display of Gilded Age wealth and American aristocracy pride (the wife was a Livingston).

Orion is re-publishing my #Tudor series The Crown and The Chalice today with new covers and jacket copy. I'm very proud of this series! The Crown was a finalist for the CWA Ellis Peters Historical Dagger Award www.nancybilyeau.com

I harvested my thyme today in the last gasp of my Hudson Valley garden!

Cold weather calls for an escarole, white bean, garlic, and pasta soup
