Each Sunday “Inspired by Life…and Fiction” shares with our readers a Christian novelist’s newest book and the garden spots where they find inspiration.
Tamera Alexander is a bestselling novelist whose works have been awarded and nominated for numerous honors, including the Christy Award, the RITA Award, and the Carol Award. After seventeen years in Colorado, Tamera and her husband have returned to their native South and live in Nashville, Tennessee, where they enjoy spending time with their two grown children, and a ten-pound silky terrier named Jack. Tamera’s always wanted a screened-in porch, and look…she finally got one. The perfect outdoor office! More at www.tameraalexander.com.

Beautiful spaces, Tammy! Inspiration is just swarming there, I can tell. 🙂
Hey Andrea! Thanks so much. I love writing out there, but right now…I’m in my office and Jack’s on his ottoman staring out the window. ; )
Very very pretty Tammy. A wonderful place to write!
Thanks, Judy, for visiting!
Beautiful space,lots of comfy seating and beautiful flowers.
Appreciate that, Ingrid. I’m not the greatest with flowers, so that’s saying a lot. 😉
I have garden envy! I especially love your porch (and your puppy). Beautiful!
LOL at the garden envy. Jack sends his love! 🙂

Thanks for stopping by, Chris. Hugs to you, friend.
Ahh…very relaxing, pretty porch, and love the trees! I work in my sunroom turned office, but would love to have a screened in porch. But I do have 6 windows and a great view of trees by the creek beyond our fence.
Hey Maggie, your office sounds divine!
Gorgeous, inviting space. Have wanted area like this for a while, maybe one of these days. I could live out there.nen
