New in Audio
Audio versions of Beloved (Book #3 in the Where the Heart Lives series) and Keeper of the Stars (Book #3 in the Kings Meadow Romance series) are now available for digital download, making each series complete. And I couldn’t be happier about it.
If you’re one of my readers who’s written to me over the years, asking why books #1 and #2 were in audio but not #3, now I can tell you that’s no longer the case. Yea!!
Happy listening!
New in Audio
I’m so excited. My publisher recently corrected an omission for two of my series. Back when the third novels of each series were first released, audiobook versions weren’t made. As of this week, that’s no longer true.
Audio versions of Beloved (Book #3 in the Where the Heart Lives series) and Keeper of the Stars (Book #3 in the Kings Meadow Romance series) are now available for digital download, making each series complete. And I couldn’t be happier about it.

Illuminated Scripture Journals
About a week ago, I heard about the Illuminated Scripture Journals from Crossway. These books have the Scripture on the left hand page (ESV) and lightly dotted blank pages on the right, perfect for writing or drawing or however you best interact with Scripture. (There are also the same journals with plain black covers where the right hand pages are lined.)
The Illuminated Scripture Journals have beautiful covers, and each cover represents something within the book itself. Inside, the book nam...

Back to Being Back to School
Some years ago, I attended a college graduation ceremony (remember when they had those in a normal fashion?), and while sitting in the bleachers, I had an epiphany. I’d always said I was going to get a college degree (something I didn’t do at the usual age) “when I had the time.” And sitting in those bleachers I realized, as with anything else, I would never have the time. If this was something I wanted to do, I needed to just do it.
I went home, got on line, and began the registration pr...

Celebrating 100 Years of Voting Rights for Women
This month (August), America is celebrating 100 years of voting rights for women. It’s the anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment. As you may know, my home state of Idaho gave women the right to vote 24 years before that (1896).
In Catching Katie (winner of the Carol Award and named a “Best Book” by Library Journal), my heroine is a suffragette, returning to Idaho to encourage other women to help pass the 19th Amendment.
I confess that Katie is one of my favorite heroine...

It’s not turning out like I thought it would
Because 2019 was a rough year for me personally, I was looking forward to turning the calendar to a new year and a fresh leaf.
My word for 2020 is “Revelation” and the related verse is Ephesians 1:17 where Paul prays, “that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of Him.” (NASB95)
Sounds good, right? I was ready to spend this year deepening my intimacy with Jesus, only in my mind, I pictured that happening...

Rich Beyond Measure: Zlata’s Story
I’m excited to share the cover for a novel that caused me to daily live in the Gospels and the words of Jesus. The research took me deeper into the world in which Jesus lived. The story features the poor widow who gave the two mites—everything she possessed.
Readers will have a chance to buy Rich Beyond Measure on July 7, 2020 via Guidepost Books.
RICH BEYOND MEASURE: ZLATA’S STORY
After losing her parents, husband, and child, Zlata is left dependent upon her in-laws who regard ...

Shelter in Place Q&A #4 (Part 1)
Our fourth question took us longer to answer, so the video was divided into two parts. (Look for Part 2 on Saturday.) We hope you have as much fun listening to our answers as we did as we talked about it. The question:
What’s the hardest thing about being in quarantine? And if you’re with someone, are they driving you crazy yet?
Enjoy!
See you tomorrow with Part 2.
