  • Happiness is a Habit

      Earlier this week, I went on a beautiful three-mile walk with my daughter, daughter-in-law, my granddaughter, and two dogs around Lake Pend Orille.  ____ Weekly Question I had someone write in about last week’s question and share that she’s looking for uplifting, lighter reads. I completely understand, especially with today’s climate and all the…

  • Borrowed Light

      Borrowed Light “The two most powerful warriors are patience and time.” – Leo Tolstoy I keep trying to remind myself to be patient, but I want so badly to finish this novella and get all of you started on my next series. The devil on my shoulder says, “hit send. Let them have it…

  • Something Different

      Most of you like historical fiction, but this book is a little different. This one is non-fiction with a little creative flair to make it enjoyable to read. This is another story where I reached my 2x great-grandparents Jerry and Rachel Roe and couldn’t find records to grow my tree further back in time.…

  • The Beginning

  • Seeds, Stories & a Small Favor

      Oh my goodness! There are never enough hours in the day. Spring is in the air, which means gardening begins — even this weekend I will be starting my seedlings that need to begin their journey indoors. There is something so hopeful about that: tiny seeds, full of potential, just waiting for the right…

  • When the Words Made Me Cry

      I sat down at my desk this week to write the final chapter of my Patriot book, and I had to stop. Not because the words wouldn’t come, but because they poured out of me, literally. The kind that make your hands hover over the keyboard while you wait to see the words on…
