Surprises…and a #giveaway

March 27, 2021 by Sally Bayless

Last week, as I was sitting in my home office typing at my computer, I heard a weird noise. Now, we’ve only been in this house out in rural Missouri a couple of months, and I’m still getting used to things. During the day, I often hear noises that sound odd. For instance, our furnace […]

Putting Happiness on the Page

September 30, 2020 by Sally Bayless

    A few years ago, when I wrote my holiday novella, Christmas in Abundance, I had two goals—to write a story that reminded people of the real meaning of Christmas and to put happiness on the page. For several years, when my kids were little, the holidays were a bit of struggle for me. […]

I could draw some analogy between the characters in a story and types of stitches or colors of yarn. Or perhaps compare types of yarn with […]

Since my summer vacation plans are on hold, I’ve compiled a list of my favorite fictional small towns due for a literary visit. I especially love when I can read many books set in one […]

God, Grammar, and a Cover Reveal

February 1, 2020 by Sally Bayless

I’m the first to admit, I can be nitpicky about grammar and punctuation. I always loved spelling bees and—you’re really going to think I’m nerdy now—I can diagram a sentence with the best of them! My first job after college was as a newspaper copy editor. Imagine my surprise when my first book came back […]
