Whether short or long, it will leave the receiver with a wonderful feeling. The note will lighten someone’s heart. Although this […]
Christmas is 100 days away!
Did you know that today is exactly one hundred days before Christmas? Can you believe it? Are you ready? Wait, it’s only September. When do you usually start preparing for Christmas? Is September too early to prepare for Christmas? Tell me in the comment section. Ah, Christmas. That time of the year when I find […]
The Prodigal Daughter
The Prodigal Daughter A Guest Post by Meg Carmichael Hi. Meg here. Some may say I’m fictional, but I’m no more fictional than the Prodigal Son Jesus talked about in the Bible. You know the story, I’m sure. Change the gender, change the era from AD30 to AD2023, tweak a couple of details, and it’s […]
Unusual Hobbies
Once upon a time… It’s how all the best stories start, right? Or maybe, a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away. Or maybe you want to do the Wayne’s World wavy lines and wiggle. However you get there, imagine if you will, 1989. A young nerdy girl in the summer between middle […]
Waiting for Fall + Excerpt
This summer, my town in Texas, USA has experienced 60+ days in a row of temperatures above 100 degrees. To say I’m ready for a reprieve is an understatement! This time of year, as I (im)patiently wait for the weather to turn lovely as fall creeps into the States, I always think about my book […]

There Once was a Horse
Some of you may recognize this guy. For those who don’t know him, meet Hoss. Hoss is a blind quarter horse that I rescued two years ago. He’s the main inspiration for my upcoming Love Inspired book, THE COWGIRL’S LAST RODEO. I thought I’d share a little excerpt with you today to honor Hoss. This […]
Forever
A while back, I was blessed to be able to participate in a multi-author event at my local library. It’s always awe-inspiring to find out there are more than twenty other authors in the area, especially since I had never met most of them. Makes an author feel not quite so alone–a good thing for […]
