Separation Unto the LORD

Separation… You’re reading this after I’ve spent eight days holed-up in a hotel room, finishing my rough draft on book #4–but I’m writing this in the midst of my separation from the world. Why does a middle-aged, empty-nester need quiet hotel room to write a biblical novel? Because my laundry yells at me, my dog … Read More

Got Me Thinking… On Jan. 2, 2013, I went with a friend and her daughters to the King Tut Exhibit in Seattle.

Often referred to as the “boy-king,” Tut reigned from (approx.) 1336-1327 BCE and … Read More

Happy Birthday, Baby Jesus!

Christmas is Coming… At midnight tonight, Christmas Day begins. I remember several times over the years, my hubby would wake me up in the middle of the night to open gifts–’cause he just couldn’t wait until daylight. He’s often more anxious than the kids for our Christmas celebrating to begin. Where’s Baby Jesus? One of … Read More
