I participated in a craft and vendor show this past weekend at Harvest Fellowship Church, manning a table with my books. A writer friend of mine was there as well, her table next to mine. I'd been waiting a long time for this event, as it always promises to be a wonderful time and sets… Continue reading Happy Thanksgiving

A Rich Abundant Life
This past weekend I was fortunate to attend a women’s retreat through my church. Typically, when I get home from work in the evenings I long to stay in my home office with my computer, or at least within the walls of my home with my dogs and my husband. On weekends, I don’t venture… Continue reading A Rich Abundant Life
Finding Peace Through Gratitude
Writing fiction has always been my passion. Mysteries, cozy mysteries, suspense, contemporary fiction, it doesn't matter. I love getting lost in the land of make believe, creating characters, settings, and stories, living vicariously through them.

The Golden Rule
We’ve all heard of The Golden Rule: While the idea is good to shoot for, it may not be good enough. Simply stated, we can be harder on ourselves than anyone else is. We’re often our own worst enemy, constantly reminding ourselves of where we fall short, where we fail. This, in turn, can cause… Continue reading The Golden Rule

Hodge Podge and Update
I've been a bit of a slacker lately. Although, I guess slacker isn't an accurate term. Life has been exceptionally busy, but I'm so grateful that I've got a good life to live. My son was the passenger in a car that was totaled in an accident two days ago and he came out of it with… Continue reading Hodge Podge and Update
