Homestead Friends | Book Review
This is a cute little children’s book. The art style is not my particular favorite—less detailed, more whimsical, bold colors. But just because it’s not my style doesn’t mean it’s not something I can’t recommend. I think children would really like the vivid colors.
It is a good sized book. Not quite coloring book size. It’s a good size to hold and let children point to the pictures and discuss it, but probably a little too big for toddlers to easily handle on their own.
The storyline is simple;...

Today I'm over on Kaitlyn's blog sharing some behind-the-scenes from "Befriending the Beast." Do you want to know how my brain works with plotting and idea-spinning? (Also, do you want to know how MUCH I despise and loathe spoilers??? Yeah, that was a bonus ;))
Visit HERE to read the article and see some sneak-peeks about-the-process of writing.

Waiting... | Blog Tour Stop at We've Got Pockets
Yesterday, I hopped over to We've Got Pockets to share some thoughts about waiting.
Waiting. Does it ever stop?
Is it just me, or is there irony in that question? Let’s admit it, though: sometimes, we’re just waiting for the waiting period to be over.
But usually it doesn’t just stop there. Have you noticed? We’re waiting for graduation so we can stop doing school then we’re waiting for that perfect job to come along. We wait until God brings along a husband for us gals, then we’re waiting...

A New Cover! Protecting the Poor
At long last... I get to share the cover of "Protecting the Poor" with you!
Ready???
*insert huge, excited grin*
Ah yes... we get to have my favorite color on the cover: green! Plus, it's not Robin Hood without green (albeit, they're "Lincoln Green" not quite this shade).
About the Book
Sheriff Feroci is now lord over the province, and Abtshire has become a pit of injustice. Being forced into the lord’s service does not give Dumphey as many opportunities to help the poor as he desires. When attemp...

A Day in My Life
On Monday (May 27), I decided to do a snapshot of my life (literally) on Instagram. Since many of my blog followers aren't on IG, I thought I'd share it here.
Of course, each day is different for me, but right now (as in, this week--not last week, and not next week), this is kind of how a normal day looks.
What does a day in your life look like?
Have you ever done a "day in my life" post?

Living Lies | Book Review
I enjoy trying new authors. It is almost a game—to see if they’re ones I’ll read again or if one book is enough. When it comes to Natalie Walters, I’ll be looking out for another book from her.
Natalie deals with such a difficult topic in Living Lies: depression, suicidal thoughts, self-blame, and PTSD. And all of that is mixed up in a murder investigation of a teen girl that just doesn’t make sense. The mystery was veiled and gave me the challenge of not knowing off hand who was involved—or w...

Hymns in the Hills | Book Spotlight
One of my author friends, Rebekah, is releasing a new book! Isn't the cover lovely? I haven't read it, but I know Rebekah and that her work is something you can trust to have solid, clean content, suitable for the entire family.
Excerpt "God can’t lie.” “How da ya know that?” “Because God is truth. He can’t do wrong, and when He tells us in the Bible that something is so, then we know it is so. And He said the Jesus loves us.” &nbs...
