As the
saying, and the song, remind us, there is a season and a time for every purpose
under heaven, to include, of course, Blogs.
Maria Hudgins
With a
mixture of sadness (for us) and happiness (for her), we announce that one of
our stalwarts—the incomparable Maria Hudgins—has asked to step away from her
duties as a regular contributor to the Sand in Our Shorts Blog.
Maria
has long graced the writing community with a vast body of work. She is the
author of the Dotsy Lamb Travel Mysteries and the Lacy Glass Archaeology
Mysteries. She has had short stories and novellas appear in a number of
anthologies and periodicals. Her stories often feature her
real-life interests such as chemistry, travel (she’s been to more than
fifteen countries), archaeology, dogs, cats, and poisons. A native of East
Tennessee, Maria now lives in beautiful Hampton, Virginia, on the shores of the
Chesapeake Bay.
Maria earned
a master’s degree in plant physiology with a minor in biochemistry from the
University of Tennessee. Having never studied writing, she credits her English
teacher mother with instilling in her a great respect for our language.
Thank
you, Maria. Heartfelt wishes for your future endeavors.
And as
we say goodbye to Maria, we’re excited to announce that well-known and
respected author Ellen Butler has agreed to join us as a regular contributor to
Sand in Our Shorts. Ellen’s first post is in the queue and ready to launch on
Saturday, July 5, 2025. Let me assure you, it’s a humdinger.
In
addition to Ellen, we’ve lined up some excellent “Guest Bloggers.” Stay tuned
