Dear Friends and Readers,

Welcome to my website. Please look around, explore the links, and feel free to drop me a note by e-mail. I’d love to hear from you.

I’m excited to announce my newest novel, The Wind Comes Sweeping, which is due for release in April 2009. As the title might indicate, the book is set in my home state of Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweeping down the plains. It involves a legend from pre-statehood, a woman who’d intended to be an artist and a teacher instead of a rancher, and the modern wind farm that might save her or bring her ruin. For a quick preview, click here to see a video trailer.

You’ll find more about my books by clicking the Marcia’s Novels button at the left margin. If you’re in a book discussion group and would like to set up an author chat, by phone or e-mail, just let me know.

This year I’m serving as president of Oklahoma Writers Federation Inc. and helping plan a big writers’ conference near Oklahoma City on April 30-May 2. If you’re an aspiring writer, come and join us for a great learning and networking experience. You can find out more about it and register online at www.owfi.org.

My best to you and yours,
