about fran
I live my life in a spirit of enthusiasm and quiet expectancy, and I believe strongly in the power of our individual stories, so I’d like to help you tell yours—in your own words, with your own voice—relating the stories you know the best.
We can each do our part to heal the world. When we understand the importance of these stories of our lives, we’ll see that our experiences can serve as a self-help manual to people who come after us. I’m doing it for myself, and I’d like to see you do the same.

At long last, here’s an easy way for you to be kind to your executor by answering all their questions before you risk being unable to answer them.
The first of eleven Biscuit McKee Mysteries introduces Biscuit (the librarian) and Marmalade (the library cat). Together they find a dead body on the library stairs, and the fun begins.
