Hello, stranger. It’s been a while. I hope you’re all enjoying the Thanksgiving weekend. It’s hard to believe that almost a year has passed since my last post. So much has happened that I hardly know where to begin. What a year it’s been! I often remember encouraging you all to close your eyes and…
Here’s a quick update from somewhere nice and warm! Thought I’d stop in for a brief catch up – life has been so crazy busy lately, but I’m not complaining. The publishing world works in funny ways -what I’ve learned in the past ten or so years, is that one must just keep at it,…
Merry Christmas, dear readers! As I write this, I imagine you all as we are – filled with delicious food and desert and wine and plopped down in front of the television. My son is home from Denver and has declared a “History Week”. As it stands, we are watching Gladiator (we watched this in…
Happy Sunday, everyone. I’ve lost my husband to Football season, the sun is shining despite the high winds and I’ve locked myself inside my home as ten wild turkeys circle around my yard, waiting to eat me. Somewhere Along the Way released last Tuesday, September 24 while I was at my nephew’s wedding in Vancouver….
Welcome to Summer! Since our last blog entry, I’ve celebrated my 60th birthday, vacationed in the Philippines, traveled for work to New York and Toronto (more than once), received the award of my life, spoken at a Youth Leadership Conference and finished my latest book! Needless to say, I am so ready for an uneventful…
Something big is happening this week! And it’s taken me a few months to process. I am turning 60! There’ve been so many steps to get here. It’s a young culture, you know. So much emphasis is placed on looking young, acting young, thinking young. And although I hardly feel my age, there’s no denying….
Hope you’re all having a great 4th of July holiday. Before anything else, I’d like to THANK YOU, dear readers for all your love and support during the release of My Goodbye Girl last June 6th. This book managed to keep its #1 New Release flag for a whole month, and I am beyond (surprised)…
I have so many words, I don’t know where to start. Many years ago, I was one of a handful of people privileged enough to be called to our church for the “washing of the feet”. It was a time in my life that held great meaning for me – the humility that I felt…
Happy 2023! I hope you’re all having a great start to the New Year. Here I am in sunny (windy) Isla Mujeres, having the most creative spurt I’ve had in many months. 2022 felt like a whirlwind. A rollercoaster of emotions and change that happened so quickly, it felt out of control at times. I…
My first blog post for 2022 and on my new website. I’m so excited! Time has just flown, hasn’t it? And in that six month period since I last wrote, my life has changed in so many ways. In February, I found the courage to walk away from a work environment that just wasn’t for…
