I saved my Wednesday post for Thursday this week, because today is International Women's Day. While I'm not a women's libber or a women's rights activist (Not that there's anything wrong with those who are, in fact, if that's you, KUDOS! Keep it up!), I do believe women are special and contribute far more to… Continue reading International Women’s Day

Winter’s Beauty
Never before have I had spring fever so badly and so early. Probably because, for the most part, we've had an incredibly mild winter here in Colorado this year. So when the snow and cold hit these past couple of weeks, it reminded me we're still in the middle of winter. But what's the best… Continue reading Winter’s Beauty
Writer’s Doubt
Banish writer's doubt? Or not? In a recent guest blog post I was asked what my least favorite part of the writing process is. My answer was "getting my manuscript back from the editor." I learned I'm far from alone in that aspect. I also learned that even famous authors feel that way. There are… Continue reading Writer’s Doubt
The Month of Hearts
February is the month of hearts and love. Anyone living on this planet is aware of Valentine's Day, whether we're fond of it or not. The card, flower, and chocolate industry can attest to how popular Valentine's Day is. We celebrate and honor our "true love." I also celebrate my kids, adults now, but that… Continue reading The Month of Hearts

Coming January 1st!
Daily life can take you on a wild rollercoaster of twists, turns, thrills and disappointments. And sometimes trauma hits home, washing away the very foundation on which you’ve built your life. Finding Peace Through Gratitude will help you navigate the waters of uncertainty. Rather than life controlling you and your emotions, you can control the… Continue reading Coming January 1st!
Foundations
Every chance I get, I tell people of the foundation of faith, family, and love on which my parents built their lives. That, in turn, set such a wonderful example for their children and from there, their grandchildren. I went to stay with them for a couple of weeks a while back as my dad… Continue reading Foundations
