It has taken me days to get words to paper, as it should. This past Saturday night, after saying good bye to one of my besties who had spent the day with us, the other half and I decided to call his dad and stepmother to check in on them. Today, I am grateful I […]

Just when you feel like throwing in the towel
Normally I’d be writing what I call my “sermon reflection” today. But since I skipped church last week due to needing a mental and physical break and never watched the video about it (sorry Pastor Travis!), I don’t have some witty wonderful writing for you about doing unto other and working kindness or love or […]
Updates and what nots
It’s fall. It’s the first fall in my new abode and I am adapting. I am watching the first of the leaves fall through my office windows today while one of the cats naps in her bed on my desk. I am waiting on my old van to be done, since I finally am getting […]
Train – Sample Chapter of The Trickster
If you’ve read my blog, you know I have a serial novel The Magician…. or perhaps you don’t. Anyway, in one week it will release as a paperback novel over on the Zon. But you can also sit and read it here on the blog, or listen to a few chapters as audio files read […]
The Magician will be in paperback soon!
Magical friends, I have an announcement. Remember when I finished posting my serial novel The Magician here on this blog back in June? Well, in talking to some friends of mine who had not started to read it (because admittedly, it’s not everyone’s cup of tea to read fantasy as much as I would love […]
Are you sure?
Are you sure? It’s just three little words, but there is a great deal of hesitation in them. Certainly, we want certainty, but sometimes…. We just aren’t able to know for sure. We overthink. We question ourselves. We question others. We even question God. We have identity crises. We make excuses for ourselves and our […]
Love unconditionally
It has always amazed me that the English language only has one word for love, even though there are different degrees of love, so to speak. I love my family. I love my one true love. I love chocolate. I love to write. Yet other languages have many words for love, including Greek. There is […]
Just keep following the rhythm
The other day, I was sent a text from a young lady that I look upon as a daughter. She mentioned that since she was “not good” at speaking in front of a group “like you are,” she didn’t want to be asked to ever do it again, because she felt she messed up on […]
Chicago
Having a family history that spans pretty much one state (I’m looking at you, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania!) and the Eastern Seaboard, I never really thought much about the city of Chicago. I read about it for my history classes. I learned facts that seemed to go in one ear and then out the other about […]
Why can’t we all just get along?
America is known for being a place of freedoms. Look at the first amendment to the Constitution, where the freedom of speech, freedom of the presses, freedom to peacefully assemble, freedom to petition the government and freedom of religion are all protected, even valued as fundamental to the lives of the citizens. We have the […]
