I am so happy have my friend and former Inspy Romance blogger, JoAnn Durgin, with us today. Hello, Inspy Romance! It’s been a while since I’ve visited with you, and I was thrilled when Kimberly Rose Johnson invited me to tell you about my latest release, Let Your Light Shine, A Lewis Legacy Christmas. This […]
Mission Control, We Have Liftoff! Pursuit and a Fond Farewell
As you read this, dear readers, I’m on the cusp of releasing Pursuit, Lewis Legacy Series 8 (technically Book 9 when you include Prelude, the prequel to the series). Pursuit is the story of NASA Commander William Jordan Lewis, chosen to command a mission to the International Space Station in late October 2007. Admittedly, Will’s […]

Greetings, friends! I have the high honor of being included in a box set this Christmas season called Christmas Blessings: Seven Inspirational Romances of Love, Hope & Faith!

Authors Are A Strange Breed…and a Giveaway!
Authors are crazy, but I’m sure you know that by now. Witness the author who spies the EMTs at a local convenience store. She waits until they’ve left the front counter before approaching them outside. “May I please ask you a question?” Reason: she needs to know how many people can fit in the back […]
And the man said, “Peaches!” (and special offers TODAY on Amazon)

When Life Doesn’t Go According to Plan… God’s Plan is Best!
While I didn’t have a so-called “plan” for my life, I had a few aspirations when I was younger: graduate from college (check), get a good job in a fabulous city (double check), travel to Europe (double check), and hopefully one day find the man of God’s choosing, get married, and start a family. Yes, […]
The Kids Have It!
I love writing children into my books. They’re cute, they’re fun, they add to the dynamics of a story, and—let’s face it—they pull on our heartstrings. I think one of the primary reasons I enjoy writing (and reading) about children so much is because we, as adults, can learn so much from them! Wouldn’t you […]
Call Me a Rebel…Plus a Giveaway!
In some respects, releasing a new book is like birthing a baby. Of course I realize it’s not the same thing, but for an author, it’s about as close as it comes. We work hard, we labor, and we pray, in order to bring this new creation into the world. While people coo over a […]
A Legacy of Quality Craftsmanship: The American Tradition
In honor of my son Matthew’s high school graduation, our family took a trip to Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia last week. We had a fabulous time in spite of the sometimes blazing heat (one day it reached 101 degrees) which somewhat sapped our energy. One of the things that most impressed me was this: our […]
Thank You, Donny Osmond
Thank you, Donny Osmond. I can say in part that I owe my romance writing career to him. He prompted that first spark of infatuation in this young girl’s heart (well, someone had to do it eventually). I’d better explain. Yes, they called it puppy love (the name of one of his songs). When I […]
