Fear of Falling
Sometimes in life you feel like a child racing down a snow-encrusted hill on the thin rails of one of those old wood and metal sleds. Remember them? Man, could we fly. When the snow was packed hard and the temperature was in the teens, those metal sleds were like white lightning. The freedom, the…
Writing Update
I’m trying to keep most of my writing related posts on my writing blog. Check it out! Trust me, it’s worth the click!
Life, Interrupted
Gina’s got a great name for her website, “Writer…Interrupted.” I can identify with those two words, as I’m sure that every writer and blogger can, too. JUST when you are about to discover the PERFECT phrase to capture the essence of your work-in-progress, someone yells, “Mommmmmyy! I have to go potty!” and the inspiration evaporates…
Giving Grace
We took the kids to the house the other day (which isn’t officially ours yet) and she was soooo excited. A couple of months ago Grace kept talking about how she wanted a house that had a porch like grandma. I didn’t know what the appeal was until we drove by a house and she…

Unfortunately, birds and squirrels ate the tasty morsels, and the poor children were lost. The Israelite children…

Per hubby’s request and my inner conviction, I have to drop some commitments and really limit my time blogging. I hope to figure out a schedule soon, but I’m ready for this change. It’s where…
Two Questions Answered
Here’s two questions I get asked often: Where do writers get their ideas? And, Why do I write supernatural suspense? First things first, where do I (and other writers) get all those crazy ideas. Allow me to let you in on a little secret. In my basement, in a hideaway room protected by a rusty…
Dear God, What’s Going on Here!
Are you sure you’ve got your timing write? Not off by a year or two, are you? I thought you wanted me to homeschool this year, well come to think of it, did I even ask you? Probably not, I just thought, no, felt in my heart, it was the right thing to do. I…
