Pub Note
January 26th, 2023 Posted 8:12 am
Pub schedule for 2023: Mrs. Plansky’s Revenge – July 25; Up On The Woof Top – October 17. Both are available for pre-order, although only the cover art for Mrs. P is showing right now, the cover art not yet done for Up On The Woof Top (the next Chet and Bernie).
In answer to many questions, Mrs. P is not a Chet and Bernie story. Occasionally a non-C&B idea pops up in my mind demanding my attention. For example, there was The Right Side a few years back. The tone and story of Mrs. Plansky’s Revenge are very different from The Right Side (the tone of which is certainly darker) and Mrs. P herself is very unlike LeAnne Hogan, the main character of The Right Side, although they have one thing in common: Under duress, they each find something strong and unexpected within.
But my main point is that I am very sure that readers who like the Chet and Bernie stories will also like Mrs. P. Secondary point: there’s lots more Chet and Bernie to come. Please feel free to share this post with friends who like to read.

What’s In A Name?
June 17th, 2022 Posted 7:46 am
Mrs. Publicist: A couple of days late, but how about we do What’s In A Name, where Pete and I discuss a character name from somewhere in his work? Pete, I was wondering about Dr. Machado, the somewhat unhelpful shrink from The Right Side.
PA: Certainly unhelpful from his patient LeAnne’s point of view. Machado means ax or hatchet in Spanish and Portuguese.
Mrs. P: So – a crude kind of tool for doing delicate work?
PA: Exactly! You don’t need me anymore!
Mrs. P: See you July 15 for more of What’s In A Name!

The Right Side
November 12th, 2021 Posted 8:18 am
Since yesterday was Veterans Day maybe I can mention The Right Side, where the main character is veteran? It’s not a Chet and Bernie novel – much closer to a Peter Abrahams novel, actually. (And I’ve got another in-betweener on the back burner but moving soon to the front one.)
