So grateful to be part of the cast in the Pageant of the Masters. Lovely to share time—and canvas—with my three fellow cast mates. We’ve become close, like the family in Van Gogh’s Wood Gatherers in the Snow. Blessed to be a small part of this amazing tribute to art. by @darrelldenny

Back in the saddle—at Saturday’s Men of Mystery event in Long Beach—with Craig Johnson, New York Times bestselling author of the Walt Longmire novels—the basis for Netflix’s Longmire series. Got to chat and get his signature on “First Frost,”. What a thrill for a newbie novelist like me. Thanks to Men of Mystery for putting on this great event. by @darrelldenny

This is the very spot, Thoor Ballylee Tower in County Gallway, Ireland, where Pulitzer Prize winning poet William Butler Yeats penned some of his most acclaimed works in the early 1900s. The tower and grounds are beautiful and otherworldly. Sitting in the same exact spot Yeats did is inspirational. Check out my first novel — so far, lots of five ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ reviews — for this thriller and page turner. Thanks for the support and reviews.
