When the dream’s big enough, the facts don’t matter
Several years ago, my husband bought me a laptop and, ever so romantically said, “Here, now go write something.” And, being the ever obedient wife, I did. Months later. I’d started reading Kristen Billerbeck‘s Ashley Stockingdale books because (are you ready for this?) I liked the covers. A voracious reader, I’d never picked up Christian…

For some reason today it feels a tad odd to write about writing. Not that I’m not opinionated. My husband would roar if he saw that sentence. I think there are many days he’d beg me to quit slinging my opinions around for all to see and hear. But because I honestly feel so new…

Make a Book Trailer FREE!
Jill Elizabeth Nelson here, ready to launch you on a voyage of peril and discovery! An epic journey. . . All right, I’ll lay off the melodrama. This is a project, okay? And it’s going to have its hair pulling moments, guaranteed, but I found the pain worth the gain. At a recent mini-retreat with…
The Final Countdown
Does anyone remember the eighties hair band, Europe? Today their song “The Final Countdown” has been playing over and over in my head. It sounds silly, but now that the countdown to Ruby Among Us is less than two months away, I’m really starting to get excited. “The Final Countdown” just seems so fitting. There are…
