About this author

I live in southern Wisconsin with my husband Bill, a high school science teacher. I love to perform and write radio drama with local group FreeQuincy Radio Theater, besides occasionally freelancing for magazines and newspapers and devotionals. I agree that to work hard at being a writer, one should read every spare minute, and so I do. I also love to travel, hand stitch quilts and putter in the flower garden (I’m not allowed in the vegetable garden after diligently weeding all the carrots one year – Hey, I thought it was Queen Anne’s lace!). I am involved in every historical society within driving distance, a tribute to my BS degree in History and Russian Studies. I do as much volunteer work as I can stuff in with church and local organizat...more


I liked this spin - to take what the enemy dishes out and use it against him. Even Jesus did that when Satan attacked him with Scripture. Thanks for the reminder. So often I forget I'm even IN a battle.

Julia Reffner Hi, thanks for the invite, Lisa! I look forward to seeing what you're reading.


Harlequin Books Hi, I'm very happy to meet you and look forward to discussing books with you. If you ever have any questions about any of the titles on my shelves, please ask away. I'll be happy to answer them. I’ll also share news when I can for example; did you know that in March Silhouette Desires will be putting out their 2000th book? The authors are celebrating with a special blog on eHarlequin.com .

btw, I grew up reading the Pern books. I absolutely love Anne's world.
