Hello,

I'm the author of the short story collection, Dark Glasses and Other Tales, and the novels, The River, Iris, and Murder in the Valley.  I currently blog on my website (www.rickmarchetti.com) and smithfield.patch.com every Friday.  My posts have to do with writing most, but not all, of the time.  Recent posts have been about Holidays and Rescue Dogs.  Yes, those are two separate topics!

For the time being, I will maintain my once-a-week schedule but, if there's enough interest, I will go to twice-a-week.

The purpose of the blog is to raise awareness of my books, but also to interact with potential readers, other writers, or anyone who wants to say hello.

I'll have new content for you on Friday.

Rick Marchetti
