D’Ann’s Favorites

By

We hope you are enjoying these weekly feature posts from the authors of Inspired by Life…and Fiction. We’re sharing some of our favorite things to help you get to know us a little better—and we’d love to hear your answers to these “favorites” questions in the comments below.

Favorite Candy: This is hard. I love candy! But I guess I’d have to say Twix bars. They have it all—chocolate, caramel, and a shortbread cookie. Yum.

Favorite Sport (to watch or play): Another tough one! The truth is, my favorites sports to watch were the ones my kids were playing at any given time! In that light, I do still love to watch basketball when my son is coaching. But I’d have to say my favorite right now is my own sport—pickleball. I have a friend with a court on her property out in the country so I don’t have to go make a fool of myself on a public court. I just get to play and have fun with other ladies my age-ish. The bonus? My sister often plays with that group, too. 

 
Favorite Scripture Verse: And the hardest of all! How to pick just one? So I’ll share the one that I’ve been camped out on for awhile now. 

The following two tabs change content below.

D'Ann Mateer

Inspired by novelist Eugenia Price, D’Ann’s dream of writing historical fiction with an element of faith began in middle school, though her serious drive toward publication took a bit longer. D’Ann is the author of four historical novels and one novella, as well as a contemporary short stories in a compilation volume. D’Ann and her husband of 30 years can be found in Austin, TX when they aren’t touring historic sites or visiting their grown children.

  1. We played pickleball for a while…and then we got old. 😉 Actually, a lot older people than us play, but we did have two friends get hurt while playing with us (NOT our fault! Ha!) and decided we might be better off quitting while we were ahead. 🙂 Loved hearing your favorites, D’Ann!

  2. Thanks, Deb! Yes, all of us “old ladies” out there caution each other on things like “don’t dive for the ball.” We enjoy it but aren’t super serious, which helps some!
