Who Am I? What Am I Doing Here?
- Vicki Lane
- western NC, United States
- I'm the author of The Elizabeth Goodweather Appalachian Mysteries from Bantam Dell. The series includes SIGNS IN THE BLOOD (LA MONTAGNE DES SECRETS in France), ART'S BLOOD, (LE SECRET DES APPALACHES in France,) OLD WOUNDS,IN A DARK SEASON (Anthony Nominee, Best PBO), and UNDER THE SKIN. There's also THE DAY OF SMALL THINGS (a spinoff/standalone)chronicling the unexpected life story of Miss Birdie, one of Elizabeth's neighbors. I came to this weird business late (my first novel was published in 2005) and am still trying to figure it out. As my novels are set in a place much like my real life home, I thought I'd use this blog to share pictures of our farm and county. I've been blogging for over four years now, on an almost daily basis, and the topics have ranged from writing, chickens, food, books, quilts, flora and fauna of all sorts, to the occasional tiny rant. There's no plan, but there are lots of pictures. There's more information about me and my books on my web site: http://vickilanemysteries.com/

Gosh, I wish I was up there to see it! Lovely photos, Vicki.
Gorgeous photos, Vicki. I really liked the one of the berries, some of which are striped. Do you know what kind of berries they are?
It's SO beautiful where you live!
The photos are beautiful. Makes me long to be back home.

Hello Vicki
I love Fall and all the pretty colors. As always--lovely pictures.
Oh, can we do a house swap--would love to spend one week in your mountains!!
Have a great day and week!
Best
Tracy :)
Once Fall starts, it's like a train racing downhill!
A nice start to what will soon be an awesome site! XO
I've said it before and I'll say it again - I do so love coming here every morning and seeing your pictures and reading your words.
Like Victoria, I'm wondering what those berries are. We have them all over this year.
Victoria and KarenB -- those are poke berries. Not edible for humans but birds love them.
I went back and identified thing on the post.
Howdy, Arlee Bird -- you're a long way from home!
Vicki -- you have a knack for capturing fall with your camera. Enjoyed them all on this early fall Sunday -- barbara
Beautiful, it all sings in the sunshine. Here, we're sobbing in the rain!
My how beautiful!!! Cathy
Autumn is just wonderful. It really pays to look closely at every leave and every flower.
Oh yes it's acomin' and not a minute too soon for me. From the looks of your sidebar you are going to have a good opportunity to see a lot leaves this fall.
Vicki,
Enjoyed his posting. Really liked the Pipevine Swallowtail photo on lobelia. We have the same lobelia blooming but I have not seen butterflies on it.
Beautiful photos of this wonderful time of year.
Yes, indeed! We're heading home!
The garden's almost clean; the basement is full of canned fruits and veggies; life is good! Lovely photos!

I'm thinking of dying some cloth with some of my pokeweed. They are prolific this year!
Lovely pictures. The one of the sun filtering into the woods is especially nice.
