Summer Begins Blog Hop

Me? I'm going to kick back, take it easy, and...oh wait. That's my alter ego, the one who lives in a Perfect World.
Yeah, back to me. I'll be working on editing, writing a Christmas novella, reorganizing the sunroom (a dreaded task), and fighting weeds with all my might. After all, I live in the Real World.
What about you? Does your upcoming summer hold any secrets, adventures, or stories just begging to...

Lucky Is Reading Giveaway Hop
Are you feeling lucky?
I recently bought a boxed set for 99c. I know, I know. A big risk, right? I've been sorely disappointed by several boxed sets. I almost didn't buy this one. It had ten books, though, so the 10% that I got to read without purchasing was almost an entire book. And it was a decent book. A book I would have easily paid 99c to read on its own.
So I decided to go ahead and take the plunge, shell out the whopping almost-dollar...

An Open Letter to Grieving Parents
In October 2014, I was allowed the privilege of speaking at the Day of Remembrance for a local hospital – the hospital at which my daughter spent so many months.

This is the speech I delivered that day – minus a few personal items I...
