As usual, Manny was sweating profusely, as usual his corpulent face glowed like a beacon and as usual the buttons on his tweed waistcoat threatened to pop as they strained against his plump belly. Warily, while pushing myself forward on to my toes, I peered over my desk at the slender legs of the chair. They creaked and they groaned, but they held, sound and secure. Manny had landed and we could begin.

Ah, if only I was twenty years younger and, I will say it before you do, twenty stone lighter! The couple have a daughter, Emma, nineteen. Amanda is now living with her paramour, Gethin, an ex-commando who, by all accounts is as tough as nails in masculine company, but is as soft as a marshmallow when with the ladies. It is alleged that one week ago Amanda sought a permanent separation from her estranged husband, Anthony, and murdered him. It was dark, around midnight. The goal for permanent success is to aim for lasting change and a healthy lifestyle.

Too many people think of weight loss as being about whether to try this fad diet or that fad diet, whether to count calories, eat low to no carbs, or load on the protein. The goal in these instances is to lose weight fast. But the most important thing for permanent weight loss is sustaining a healthy lifestyle for life.

A 30-Day Guide to Permanent Weight Loss

To be successful, you have to focus on the mental strategies to achieve weight-loss success. There is nothing wrong with learning about the foods we eat and the impact they have on our health and weight. However, that should not be the only focal point for those looking for long-term success. The real solution is mental mastery.

Consistency becomes the evidence of true behavioral change. It is an approach focused not on what to eat or how much exercise to get but rather on changing daily habits that will improve both mind and body. This is a timeless solution that will help you achieve your weight-loss goals for a lifetime. Your weight is a result of current and past habits. So, logically, a different set of habits and behaviors will create a different result.

    Sam's Stories: Sam Smith Mysteries

    I have a few non-negotiables when I start a new crime novel. I need a cast of diverse, complex characters with credible and surprising motivations. I need a context—a world—that I can expose for readers, one they may find unfamiliar but intriguing. And I need a purpose that transcends plot. My purpose in this new novel is to examine the concepts of justice and identity. Grecia Galindo and Riley Wittman are very different, but they ask themselves the same questions: Are they, and should they be, limited by the circumstances of their birth? Must they follow in the path of their parents?

    Is justice ever truly blind?

    Can you talk about your writing process? I have met and talked with so many authors through the years, but have never met any one who approaches the task as you do. I do not like to sit at a computer and stare at the screen as I compose a first draft. I like to write in motion. I email the notes to myself, download them into Word files, and only then do I sit at the computer.

    • The fun part of writing is the editing. That is where you get to shape and mold, like a word sculptor. You came late to your writing career, what preconceptions did you have entering the world of publishing? What have you learned since Silent City was published? Actually, I came to publishing pretty early the first time. I was 23 when my first novel, a literary novel, was published by Simon and Schuster. Back then, I was too young to understand how to handle my good fortune. Your career is largely dependent on your own efforts to promote yourself.

      I am grateful to have an audience, and my biggest joy now is connecting with readers and other writers. My expectations are far more realistic. Who is inspirational to you as a writer? What other writers have helped you on your journey? I have been helped by many people in the crime writing community, but a few stand out. Wendy Corsi Staub has generously opened many doors for me and been a riotously fun companion at many Bouchercons.
