I love happily-ever-afters, pointing others toward God, and encouraging others to flex their creative muscles. I don't know what I want to be when I grow up, so I write in three genres: Christian romance, Christian living, and children's books with a twist.

My Christian living book, "Enoch Walked with God: And you can too" was a Kindle best-seller (top 100) in all three of its categories for at least time for the first 2.5 months it was out.

My children's books are unique in that they encourage the children to draw in the book. The You Draw series has no pictures at all! This allows the reader to also be the illustrator, then add their name to the front cover as the illustrator.

When I'm not writing, I'm hiking with my family, homeschooling m ...more

Washed as White as Snow

When God created the world, everything was perfect. When Adam and Eve brought sin into the world, it disrupted God’s perfect order. Not only did sin and death enter, but all other forms of disorder and chaos.

We became dirty.

To get into Heaven, we must be holy, as God is. Because of sin, though, no one is holy (Romans 3:23).

God loves us too much to leave us in our dirtiness, our sin (happy Valentin

A sweet story of faith and found family. There were a few places where I wish the author had shown us more, but overall, it was a nice story.

Intense. A page-turner. Gut-wrenching. It feels like a young adult Dystopian novel, but unfortunately it seems like a contemporary story from Revelation. It's terrifying. It's real. Make sure you have book 3 before you start book 2. I'm about to jump ri ...more

Woah. This book is thought-provoking, insightful, and oftentimes gut-wrenching. A lot was hard to read. But it will be even harder to live. It's encouraging me, though, to reexamine my faith. If I were challenged, would I stand strong? ...more

Such a fantastic book! Definitely a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood, but with a dash of Sleeping Beauty and a strong dose of faith.
