If you’re a parent, have you experienced a moment where your kids remind you of your past choices? Humbling, isn’t it? Last month we were in Upstate NY visiting family and our son brought his girlfriend with him so she could meet his grandmother and see the hills of Upstate NY that we don’t really […]
Inspy Romance Across the USA + #giveaway
According to AAA, they estimate four out of ten Americans will travel for a family vacation this summer. Although we don’t have a specific vacation this year as opposed to our Branson destination last year, we’ve certainly added miles on our vehicles visiting family and enjoying summer outings. I started thinking as the Arduini family […]
Never Too Far Gone
Happy July! How is your summer going so far? I hope great. Although this isn’t my favorite season, I do enjoy the relaxed schedule for a bit. I had a sweet surprise that turned out to be a little devotional thought that also applied to my writing. I thought I’d share. Outside our side garage […]
That Something Extra
Ah, June. The start of what I hope is a beautiful and blessed summer for all of us. I also like to think of summer as prime reading season. Actually, I love reading all year long, but there’s something about being poolside with a book and escaping the demands of real life that is extra […]
Surrender Issues and Romance
The only reason I’m a published author today is because on December 31, 2006, I surrendered my fears about what people think about me and the fear of rejection and promised God I would write what He wanted, when He wanted. It’s been an amazing journey since that prayer. Through those years, and whether it […]
True Matchmaking Stories Plus Excerpt
When I have a release to promote, the number one request I receive from bloggers is to share what true event, if any, inspired the book. Last month I shared that after a bout of bronchitis/sinus infection (which didn’t leave and got worse!) the praise was I revised the first novella I wrote after becoming […]
Plot Twist & #giveaway
Greetings from Ohio! The first 60+ days of 2019 have been hard to predict around here. Weather wise, we’ve had a foot of snow, then a polar vortex. There were days we left with a light coat. All I know is there have been a lot of days off from school for our daughter, and […]
Worrying What Everyone Else Thinks
February! I saw a meme that joked that January was the longest 547 days they’d ever seen. I can relate! We had one storm with a foot of snow. The Polar Vortex touched down in Ohio, and we saw temps as low as -14, with -27 wind chills. I’m ready for a change! It’s not […]
The Way to A Reader’s Heart…
Happy New Year! Are you someone that does resolutions? Goals? Perhaps you have a word for the year? I’m writing a little before Christmas because I’ll be traveling and I haven’t quite figured how I should tackle the new year. I can say that wellness has to be on my list. This is the first […]
Behind the Scenes at The Christmas Mansion +#giveaways
Hopefully by now you’ve grabbed your copy of the boxed set, A Christmas to Remember, and are completely in the holiday spirit thanks to the novellas. I thought I’d share a bit more about my story, Restoring Christmas, and the place that brings Holly Christmas back to Geneseo Valley: The Christmas Mansion. I tossed the […]
