A few years back, there was a certain novel people couldn’t stop talking about (I won’t name the book, but it was secular, not Christian and not romance). The reviews were fantastic and everyone seemed to love it—so I decided to give it a read. I have never been so disappointed in a book in […]
Time for Change
Heraclitus of Ephesus, the ancient Greek philosopher hit the nail on the head when he said there was only one constant in life and that’s change. We all face change, some of us more than others. Sometimes change stops by on a daily basis while for others, he’s is an infrequent guest. But visit, […]
The Elephant in the Room & a #Giveaway
When I was a kid, we used to visit John Ascuaga’s Nugget in Sparks, Nevada. I don’t gamble, and I didn’t grow up with gamblers, but I did grow up right next door to Reno, Nevada and its plethora of casinos. We used to meet my grandparents for dinner at one of the Nugget’s many […]
A New Year, A New Me
It’s January 3, 2019. How many times have you written 2018 on something in the last three days? Since I’m writing this before the New Year–I have big plans to binge watch some shows, rest, and write prior to this post going live–I probably have only done it a handful of times, especially since I […]
A change of plan, and why I have my word for 2019 already!
Nearly 2019? Surely not! We just had New Year, didn’t we? It can’t possibly be fall. I didn’t finish writing my summer book yet! Uh, it appears it really is the middle of October. 2019 is just 10 or 11 weeks away. Oops! Life, and God, can have a funny way of changing our plans! […]
Much Ado About…
… a lot. The life of this author has been BUSY and not with writing. LOL In case you didn’t notice, I’ve been absent for the last few months. I knew the summer would be BUSY, and I wouldn’t have the time to think, much less write blogs of any substance. <<< This happened. That’s […]
Change is in the Air
Happy Tuesday! I hope your week has gotten off to a great start. We had a wonderful time last week watching the eclipse with both of our boys home for the event. It was an amazing experience. I had no idea what to expect and really didn’t understand all the hype until it happened, then […]
Times, They Are A-Changin’
I have a nice, ordinary, settled life. Aside from the fact that my son will be starting his senior year in high school here pretty soon, nothing exciting really happens around our house. Don’t get me wrong. I love my life. I love that I get to write every day, that I belong to a […]

Hello! I am thrilled to be part of the Inspy Romance team, and I look forward to getting to know everyone. I’ve been a fan of Inspy Romance since the first post and secretly wished one day that I could be one of the participating authors. When I write that this is an honor, it […]
Change is in the Air
Photo credit to Austin Johnson This summer marks a juncture in my life. My baby graduated from high school and will be going away to college in August. Talk about a huge change! For the past 19-½ years, I’ve been a “stay at home mom.” I taught piano lessons for 18 of those years and […]
