2019 ACFW Carol Award WinnerI don’t know about you, but the past few years have been a bit more difficult than most for me. (And I’m not just talking about COVID, even though that has been a huge factor.) The last few months have been chaos. From October through the end of December, I had three different, awful respiratory illnesses that knocked me off …
Part 2 – The Journey of a Million Miles Begins with a Single Step
The rest of the story… Let’s rewind for just a minute. I told you I was an author. Which meant, up until a few months ago, I sat… A LOT. Granted, I was working and working and working. (With four and five books releasing a year, that’s a ton of words to write and edit.) But I knew something needed …
Part 1 – The Journey of a Million Miles Begins with a Single Step
This is your invitation to join me on an adventure. Yes, I’m talking to you. No matter how old you are. Young or old. No matter how in-shape or out-of-shape you are. Big or small.

Don’t you love reading about characters who are seriously flawed? Well, Michelle Griep and I both have brand new releases this month and our heroines are interesting to say the least.

With my asthma and my lung issues after a nasty case of Pertussis years ago, I had avoided it like… well, like the plague. I am VERY thankful that I’m …
Eating Our Words
Well… now we’ve done it. A bunch of crazy authors got together (it’s actually our Mastermind Group) and decided to create a new community for our readers and friends. We would LOVE to have you join us. The brand new Facebook community for readers is called Eating Our Words, co-hosted by Tracie Peterson, Kimberley Woodhouse, Jocelyn Green, Becca Whitham, Jaime …
Turkey Diving – Gobble Gobble
Well folks, it’s that time of year again. I’ve now had 352 requests about my turkey diving story… (yes, I’m anal enough to go and count them) – “when are you going to post turkey diving?” “I want to read turkey diving again” “Isn’t it turkey diving time?” So this is for all of you… And if you haven’t experienced …
