…and a wonderful end to the old one, because “Failure to Engage” is, and was, completed on the last day of 2016. It’s now available for preorder, with a release date of… the end of February. I don’t remember the date. But it’s finished. Now maybe I can start catching up on all that lost […]
That’s really all I have to say, because “Failure to Engage” has taken off, and the end is in sight! I am so excited by this, because it has been a difficult book to write. I love the characters, I love their story, but I’ve also felt tremendous pressure to do justice to the theme […]
The Ninja coffee brew system really is worth trying, after all. Brad didn’t care for the Keurig, so the Ninja was on his birthday wish list. That was back during the summer, which is also when he got said Ninja. It’s just taken me this long to try making a latte with it. Although I […]
I love my Willow Tree nativity. In New Mexico, the plant ledge in our living room was a good place to display it. In Arizona, there was no place for it. In Colorado, there were a couple of plant ledges that worked well… except they were up so high, it took wheeling the entertainment center […]
Last week, a new sermon series began at our church. It’s called “Behold the Real Jesus,” and the sermon was “Understanding the Names of Jesus.” That particular sermon focused on Isaiah chapter nine.

For about a month, I prayed my daughter would not have a serious medical condition involving her heart. Her Dad and I, and her pediatrician, were alarmed at the obvious and frequent palpitations, the chest pain, and the heart rate that wavered rapidly between 124, and 84. And so, Em was referred to a pediatric […]
250 pages! Lot’s of exciting things are happening in the world of Justin and Laney, not the least of which, is a cover for their book. If only I could spend the night writing! I really want to. But, I’ve been getting the worst headaches. My doctor says they’re caused by tension, and I’m sure […]
To “Miles,” and by that I mean the book, not the character. It was two years ago today, that “Miles” made its debut. Since then, four more books have been added to The House of Bannerman series. Three additional series and four stand-alone books have also joined “Miles” on my shelf. Fourteen books in two […]
