Word of the Week Revisit – Fall, Autumn, and Harvest
Original post published October 23, 2017 Saturday as the kids and I were driving Rowyn to a birthday party, they were observing that it was way too warm for fall, and all the trees were still green . . . and Xoë then said, “I don’t like that we call it fall. It should be autumn. Why did we ever...
Gone Writing!
It's that time of year again! The time that I and my best friend/crit partner head out of our towns (1,000 miles apart), meet up at a cute little AirBnB somewhere or another, and do nothing but WRITE for a long weekend! That's write, it's Writing Retreat time! What is a writing retreat? I've...

Word of the Week – Legend
Legend. We all know what the word means...and my character Bram spends a lot of time in Worthy of Legend pondering what really makes someone worthy to be called a hero, worthy to have stories written and sung and remembered about him or her. But have you ever paused to wonder about the word...

Throwback Thursday – Written On Our Lives
Original post published 12/9/2019 A couple weeks ago, my church watched Mom’s Night Out–a rather hilarious Christian movie that we all thoroughly enjoyed. In one scene, the heroine’s little girl is drawing on the walls with markers–Mommy ends up putting frames around some of them rather than...
Word of the Week – Cat
Sometimes it's fun to look up words so very common that one never really pauses to think about them. You never know what you're going to find! So as one of my cats stared at me as I was contemplating this week's Word of the Week, I chuckled and said, "Okay, sure, why not? Let's look up cat." And I...
Reflections
My summer, especially the second half of it, has been insane. And as I sit down at my computer to write out this week's blog post, I feel a bit low on insight and inspiration. My mind and body and spirit are all longing for the vacation coming up in a few weeks...but before that, I have SO MANY...
