Ending and Beginning (In Life and Writing)

May 30, 2018 By D'Ann Mateer

I think it’s this way with most authors—by the end of a project you are weary of it. The story. The characters. It feels as if it is the most horrible thing you have ever written, but there it is.

Memories for a Lifetime

March 26, 2018 By Deborah Raney

If you follow me on Facebook, you might know that for the past ten days I've been traveling with my husband's family, visiting the beautiful islands of Hawaii! It's a trip I never thought we'd be able to take, but Ken's mother treated all five of her kids and their spouses to this trip of a lifetime. It's not easy to coordinate the work and family schedules of 10 people—including two of us who … [Read more...]
