What You Might Have Missed This Week
I love to do this on Sundays. It is a great way to wrap up a week of hard work! I know that Sunday is “start of the week” for most people, but for me, I like to think of it as the Sabbath rest at the end of a fruitful, productive set of six days.

I hope you enjoy your Sunday! Get some rest!

For the Love of Reading
I originally found this meme here and thought it would be a fun one to do for a scheduled Saturday post! The Philosopher and I are currently out at a corn maze and looking at pumpkins! Later, we have big plans to go to a local winery, then to eat at a tasty Irish pub. YUM. Be jealous. 
So, while we’re out enjoying the gorgeous fall weather, enjoy this fun reading meme!

Book Review: Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers
Title:Redeeming Love
Author:Francine Rivers
Length:464 pages
Genre:Christian Fiction // Historical Fiction
My Rating:5/5 Stars
This was my second time reading this beautiful story. The first time, I was in high school and many of Francine River’s novels were making the rounds between all of my girl friends. We devoured her books. They spoke to our hearts and minds. Few spoke more to me than this book. It wasn’t until I readThe Mark of the Liontrilogy later in my college years that I found novels t...
Leaves Talk: Sail on Through
Last week, our leaf friend had a soft landing. This week, this leafy guy fell on the driveway! Instead of freaking out about it, he starts sailing on through! Okay…I probably attach way too much significance to these little buddies, but I LOVE trees and leaves and I find such inspiration for life in them.
This current manuscript I’m writing is giving me SUCH TROUBLE!!! WOE! DESPAIR! Seriously, though, I am stuck at the part leading up to the end and I have no idea how to finish it. Sometimes b...

Wednesday Wanderment!
I sat down at my desk to work this morning and realized…I forgot to get my water cup. Now, this sounds like a small thing, but keep in mind that I probably drink about 10 of those GIANT drinking cups (think large at fast food places) worth of water everyday. I was like….NOES! But, I have yet to get up and get it, because I’m tired. Yay for human laziness. Well, anyways, what you came here for >> some Wednesday Wanderment!

“Once Upon a Time”: Glorious Selves
WARNING: Tharr be spoilers ahead! Proceed at ye own perrril!
Today on the blog, I wanted to talk about the show “Once Upon a Time”. Unless you’ve been avoiding TV lately, chances are you’ve at least heard about the show. Hopefully you’ve watched it. Sure it has its critics, but this show delights me to NO END! I adore every inch of it–even it’s cheesier bits. This show does something that I love. Know what it is? It compares the drab, lesser self to the glorious self. What do I mean by this? T...

The Many Perils of Writing
Now, at the word “peril”, some will run away screaming from this post. You could do that. OR, you could look at the word “peril” and think, “Ooo an adventure! A trial to prove myself!” It doesn’t matter. The plain fact is, writing ishard work. Some days, you won’t feel much like writing. You won’t feel like editing or rewriting. You won’t feel like brainstorming. If you’re so burnt out that your brain has turned to mush, it’s probably time to take a wee break and chill a bit. If you’re not qu...

What you might have missed this week!
This has been an awesome weekend so far! Got to spend time relaxing with the Philosopher and also had time with family. Good stuff. Also, I’ve been hearing some feedback from readers ofNight Bells and I have felt really encouraged by their comments! So far it seems like everyone who has read it has enjoyed it, which makes me SUPER happy. I want to continue growing as a writer and author, but it brings me such joy to know that people are reading my story and having a good time with it. That’s...
