I invite Lucie Ulrich for a guest post whenever she has a new book out. She’s one of my favorite people, and I enjoy her writing, too, so it makes sense. Her latest release snuck by me somehow, though, and I only recently realized I’d missed it. How on earth did that happen!? I have […]
What Are You Reading?
I ended up teaching more classes this school year than what I had anticipated, and one thing has become infinitely clear: More classes means more grading. As an English teacher, you’d think I’d have understood this going in. Summer has a way of washing our memories clean, though, so that we forget the parts of […]
Anniversary Ideas & a #Giveaway
It’s been a busy month. My husband, son, and I took a trip to New York for my younger brother’s wedding. Then my son and I headed to West Virginia to visit some family friends. After that, I started teacher orientation to help get ready for the new school year. Halfway through that, my son […]
A #NewRelease or Two and a #Giveaway
It’s been an all-around awesome month. I hope you’ve been enjoying yourself as much as I’ve been enjoying myself. Earlier this month, Skye released (with a bit of a cover makeover). You may remember it from last year when it was in the Cherish box set. I talked about how Skye came into being […]
Life in the Great Outdoors (or Thereabout)
We have plans to visit some friends in sunny Florida later this summer, and I asked our friends for suggestions about the things we could do while we’re there. One idea they came up with was a safari ride. Outdoors. In an open-sided bus. In the summer in Florida. Oh, and the biggest selling point […]
Bella Notte is Here! (+ a #Giveaway)
Has anybody else had a crazy year? Some days, I’m not sure whether I’m coming or going, and some days I can’t tell up from down. Despite all that, it’s been a good year. God is good, and His faithfulness amazes me. All. The. Time. Last month, I shared the opening scene from Bella Notte […]
Bella Notte + a #Giveaway
Remember back when I told you there were new releases on the horizon? The time is finally here! Bella Notte is available for preorder, and it releases in less than a month. Yay! (It’s okay if you’re not throwing confetti at your computer screen. I know you’re jumping for joy on the inside.) Way back […]
Love, Strawberry Jam, and Oreos
I have a friend who makes jam. Strawberry jam, to be exact. It’s amazing, too — definitely the best jam I’ve ever had in my life. I asked her one time why she goes through all the effort of making her own jam, and her answer was pretty simple. People like it, and her husband […]
Schedules! Who Needs ‘Em?
It’s been a little while since I’ve had a new release. More than a little while, actually. At least by my calendar. That’s okay, though. God has been active in my life, and I’ve been walking in faith and obedience…even with my schedule. Letting go of my highly defined calendar is hard for me. I […]
The Ties That Bind + A #Giveaway
I hope this post finds everyone alive, well, and enjoying life. ( If this post finds you, then the odds are at least 30% in my favor. You’re *probably* alive.) I’ve been a busy couple of months in my life. My part-time teaching job has morphed into about twenty other things. Which, I’m beginning to […]
