About two years ago, Elizabeth, Narelle, and I talked about Easter romances with Lee Tobin McClain on a StoryChats podcast. I’m not sure if you’ve noticed, but there are whole lot of Christmas romances out there, but very few focused on Easter! We mused about why that might be while highlighting a few that did […]

Sunday Edition
We spent a few days in wintry Alberta in November, where the weather was blizzarding and -27º Celsius (-17ºF). The day we drove south alongside the Rockies, though, was clear and bright… although still a tad chilly, especially compared to the last time we’d driven this stretch of road! Winners this Week If you’re a […]

Welcome back to Churchill, Manitoba, the Polar Bear Capital of the World! I showed you a few photos last Sunday, and here are a few more highlights from that bucket-list day! We were driving along in our tundra buggy when someone on the other side of the rig yelled, “arctic fox!” and the driver ground […]
Sunday Edition — Happy New Year!
Happy New Year! Greetings from the Far North, where we’ve had so much cold and snow the past couple of weeks that the polar bears have wandered over! Okay, not true.

Characters and Birth Order
Years ago, I was fascinated by Dr. Kevin Leman’s The Birth Order Book: why you are the way you are. He talks about firstborns, only kids, middle kids, and lastborns. He talks about how gender plays a role in what you’re like, especially if your parents drew traditional gender lines. And he talked about age […]

Our drive home from Alberta at the end of August took us right along the foothills of the Rockies for several hours. It had been a few years since we’d made the trip (thanks, Covid), and it was a gorgeous day! I shot some of these out the window of a moving vehicle — sorry […]
But Who Said No?
Romance tropes are something we all love to hate, right? On the one hand, if someone tells you the story they just read is a fake relationship romance, you know what to expect. If you love that angst, you’ll probably be intrigued and want to know more. But, if you find fake relationships too weird […]
Sunday Edition
Sometimes life doesn’t quite go according to plan, am I right? My husband and I are nature-loving introverts, so for our 42nd anniversary on August 30, we thought we’d pack a picnic lunch and haul our kayaks up to one of our favorite mountain lakes. However, life had other plans, and we found ourselves in […]
