Still here … and yet, not

Well, I'm still here. I'm still plugging away at, and wrestling with, my writing. Still a faith-filled mom who loves her family and whimsical things. But there have been a lot of changes since I last posted. Shortly after D2 went off to her freshman year of college, Hubby and I sold our house (we… Continue reading Still here … and yet, not

Help Shape My Next Projects: Knitting and Writing Ideas

Hello, friends! Last week, I sent out an update to my author newsletter subscribers, and in that update, I included two mini surveys, looking for people’s opinions. I figured, why not cast the net a little wider? 😊 So, I’m including the surveys in this post, and I’d love for you to weigh in. One… Continue reading Help Shape My Next Projects: Knitting and Writing Ideas

The Wait is Over (In More Ways than One)

Just popping in quickly to announce that my newest book baby releases today! 🎉 Because I’m “going wide” rather than solo with Amazon, you may have noticed you couldn’t pre-order paperbacks there … until today. So, if you’ve been waiting for the paperbacks (like I tend to do with other authors’ releases), the wait is over. 😊 Click here… Continue reading The Wait is Over (In More Ways than One)

New Book Release

Oh, my poor blog. It has gotten booted down the priority ladder all too frequently in the last few years. But one good thing has come out of its creation, I suppose: its name. I use it for my DBA publishing name, it will be the name I’ll use if I ever officially hang up… Continue reading New Book Release

Delayed Announcement 🤦🏼‍♀️

So, as much as I anticipate this corner of the year, it sneaks up on me every time. At least, it does in terms of the marketing I’m “supposed” to be doing to help my book sales. 🫣 In August, few people want to hear about Christmas and Christmas books, but all of a sudden,… Continue reading Delayed Announcement 🤦🏼‍♀️

Did God Really Say…? Part 4

If you've missed my previous posts, you can find them here: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 Why Belief in Genesis as Literal History is Important Yesterday I fully recognized that one can believe in evolution and believe in Jesus Christ as his/her Savior and Lord. But did you know that belief in macro/Darwinian evolution… Continue reading Did God Really Say…? Part 4

Did God Really Say…? Part 3

Ah, Science As I mentioned two days ago, some Christian scholars claim they’re simply following the “science” when it comes to how old our universe/world is. They claim the “science” points to an old earth fashioned over billions of years, and that we should adhere to that “science,” leave Genesis alone, and just preach the… Continue reading Did God Really Say…?
