This year is almost over. It’s hard to believe, we only have a few days of 2021 left. Some days have seemed to drag, but most of the year had me wondering where the days, weeks, and months have gone. I’m sure the weeks didn’t have 7 days in them, and I’m certain that the […]
10 Years Ago . . .
Ten years seems like such a long time ago, yet at the same time it seems so short. Was it really 10 years ago this month that I released into the world my very first book? I can’t say it was a dream come true because I had never really thought about writing and publishing […]
Flying Through 2020
No one really wants to look back at 2020. It was a strange, difficult, frustrating year. But even then God was at work. I found myself praying more. I had to rely fully on Him for strength when I was totally exhausted and stressed, and He gave me not just the strength, but the smiles […]

Happy Independence Day!
It’s a hot summer afternoon. Voices murmur in the streets as groups of people stand and wait, they know not for what. Inside the building, the air is stifling and stale. All the windows have been shut and no one has gone in or out for some time. The men gathered there dab at the […]
Camp NaNo Report and . . .
It’s been a month since the end of my very first Camp NaNo and the next Camp starts on the first of July. During the time in between, I thought you might enjoy hearing my thoughts about this online, virtual writer’s camp. First off, I won my very first camp! When I first signed up […]
Indie Publishing – Pros and Cons
When I first started out in the world of writing and publishing, I had no idea what I was doing. I didn’t know anyone else who had self-published their books like I do now. In fact, I wasn’t even sure how to get my book published. I started looking. I asked some people I was […]
