A New Short Story
It's hard to believe, but last month I turned in my first manuscript to my publisher for editing. As always, God's timing is perfect. I turned in my manuscript on a Wednesday and that Friday, my mother-in-law ended up in the hospital. It's been a few whirlwind weeks...

True Confessions of a Bookaholic
I don’t know about you, but I have an obsession with books. The movers we hired can attest to that as they moved over 60 boxes of books to our new house several years ago. If we had to move again, I’d say that number has increased by at least 20. Being a simple...
