Thoughts from a writing mom

Before the release of my next book, I hope to share just a little bit about the characters. I’m quite fond of these fictional people and can’t wait for you to read their story. I began last month with an intro of the two shift supervisors, in case you missed it, here is the link: http://myonedayisnow.blogspot.com/2017/11/meet-supervisors-sergeant-torres-and.html Last time around I told you a bit about the single members of the shift, you can re-acquaint yourself with them here: http://myonedayisnow.blogspot.com/2017/12/meet-single-members-of-bravo-400s.html And now, meet the marrieds: Officer Hayes Corey Hayes is a man who loves his family, loves his job, loves his life. He grew up with law enforcement in his blood.   His father retired after 30 years with the Dallas Police Department.   An excerpt from the book of Corey speaking to a shift-mate about his father: “I always thought growing up that my dad was the coolest dad I knew because he carried a gun to work.

The Bravo 400’s shift is split evenly between single and married officers.   Today I want for you to get acquainted with the singles: Officer Jacobs Amanda Jacobs, or ‘Mandy’ as her friends call her, is the lone female on the shift.   Mandy’s fondest childhood memories of are those in which she’d curl up on her father’s lap and watch old reruns of “Chips”.   She decided at a young age as she watched Erik Estrada and Larry Wilcox that she wanted to be a police officer.   Her father told her she would make a great police officer, and she believed him.   She never lost sight of that as she pursued a criminal justice degree from Texas State University.   One day a recruiter from the Corpus Christi Police Department was on campus and he sold her the city of Corpus Christi.   She has never regretted moving there and loves working for the CCPD. She does have a boyfriend, Ryan, whom she met at Texas State.   She loves him, but he remained in San Marcos as she began her life
