Hi friends and happy Wednesday! I’m so excited to have my friend and fellow author, Kelly Goshorn, sharing today while I’m on deadline crunch. I know you’ll love her fun post. See you next time. Praying you all have a blessed day! There’s something wonderfully comforting about being surrounded by books. Their beautiful covers, well-loved pages, and familiar stories create a sanctuary for the … [Read more...]
God is Calling Them Home . . .
My husband and I have been startled to realize how many outstanding Christian leaders have gone to heaven recently--and they weren't all old: Charlie Kirk, James Dobson, John MacArthur, Vodie Baucham . . . so many! We need to pray that God raises up others to speak the truth, to speak God's Word, and to be faithful to pick up the shield of faith and a megaphone. Just in the wake of … [Read more...]
Counting Down
UPDATE: The random winner of a copy of To Reveal a Reckless Love is Gwen (e***m@y***.com). An email with instructions is coming your way. I use and love the Countdown app on my iPhone so I can see various deadlines that are rushing toward me, usually much too fast. It’s helpful to open the app to see what is coming next. Of course, some deadlines are fun and we can't wait for them. That is … [Read more...]
Book Covers Come Alive
A few months ago, I was scrolling through Facebook and found a book cover that moved. It felt like one of those Harry Potter newspapers where the images come to life. I thought it was super fun and decided I'd try my hand at making one. At the time, my newest book was To Love a Beast, so I started with that one. I was really pleased with the bookish turn of page, even if she turned pages on … [Read more...]
My local Barnes and Noble
When the rumor of a Barnes and Noble coming to our town first started circulating, I was hopeful but not confident it was true. Guess what? It was! Our local Barnes and Noble—just a five-minute drive from my house!—opened the end of August, while we were away on vacation. Since then, I just haven’t had the opportunity to get up there. But Jeff and I remedied that this past … [Read more...]

Writing Books We Cannot Read
My dear friend author Elizabeth Musser and I have known each other for twenty years, ever since we roomed together at a conference and became fast friends. She invited me to be part of a sweet prayer group of fellow authors almost ten years ago, and the six of us still meet by Zoom once a month to pray for each other and our families as we write for the Lord. It can be a challenge since we live … [Read more...]
Such Happy Days!
I'm still sun-bathing in the glow of two recent days! I thought I'd share a few photos with you . . . . The first happy day--my book signing in Midlothian, Texas. To be honest, most of the book signings I've done haven't been well-attended. Inevitably, the vast majority of my readers don't live near the event. Those who do have busy lives or already own the book(s) I'm signing. After Covid, it … [Read more...]
Confidence versus Comparison: finding joy anyway + a giveaway
Once upon a time there was an author who wondered if anyone would ever read her books and enjoy them. Everywhere she looked, there was someone who sold more copies, hit more lists, and won more awards. The ways to measure success were everywhere. Numbers of reviews. Number of contracts signed. Even the number of books stolen to train AI. Then she one day she realized all the looking around her … [Read more...]
