read moreThe Courage Chronicles
Welcome to the Courage Chronicles! I’m thrilled to be partnering again with these dear friends. In the past, we’ve been honored to bring you the Hope Chronicles, the Christmas Chronicles, and the Trust Chronicles. This time around, since we’re discussing courage, we stepped outside our comfort zones do something a little zany: create a collaborative painting! Using a painting kit that tied into each of our books’ settings or themes, we each took a turn adding a layer of the watercolor, letting it dry, bundling it up...
read moreCover Reveal (and 3 fun facts!)
Confession: Book covers do me in. I cannot pass a book aisle without stopping to examine the covers. Compositions, fonts, trends, colors used, themes from the story itself symbolized on the cover… it’s a magical place, the book aisle is. Don’t you think? I tried to resist the pull even today while on a super fast trip to the store, but even on a tight timeline couldn’t make myself skip that aisle. I’m hopeless. Which is one of the many reasons why I’ve hardly been able to keep myself from posting this...
read moreSeventeen months, two pinecones in my pocket…and a book contract.
Hope. Such a small word, isn’t it? Four little letters, tasked with holding one of the most immeasurable things in our universe. But oh, how it lined the hearts of five authors when we began e-mailing nearly a year and a half ago about a possible collaboration project involving one single bottle, travelling across the ages and changing lives. So much so, that the stronghold of hope slipped into our proposed collection as a major theme. When word came a few months back that an offer was on the table for our novella collection,...
read moreThe Pearl-Fisher
Thunder answers thunder in a vaulting discourse above. Not another soul is at the river this day. None but the man with the weathered hands. He strides in with steady purpose, undeterred as the current froths a vortex about him. His treasure is here, and he won’t leave without it. Expert eyes dart from mussel to mussel in the Highland shallows where the clamped shells lay. Gathered together, pristine. Waiting to be harvested for pearls within. He walks right past. Deeper in, a jagged dimple on the surface signals rocky peril beneath....
read moreIn Which I Try to Be Brave (a year late…)
I thought I would be brave. I opened my word processor to try and hammer into words something that’s been stirring in my heart lately… but to do it, I would have to tell you that while life is full and beautiful and I’m grateful through-and-through, I’ve also been touched by a deep sadness in the recent past*.That’s a scary thing to tell the internet. But a safe thing to tell God’s beloved people, when there is hope to share in it too. And that’s you. (Hi!!) So, I pulled up my word processor to try and be brave, and you know what...
