Can You Guess The Incorrect Answer?
Last week was an exciting week! As I told you on Friday, I’m really excited about the grant we received to talk to kids in two counties in our area about abstinence and making healthy choices for their lives. While I won’t be doing the programs like I used to, and loved doing, by the way, I’m happy that the …

Crime Quiz
This weekend I spent time with friends and family at a family reunion. We ate and visited as we looked at old photos of those who had gone on. Then because we had some who had not seen some of the old home places, we did a “tour” of Pocahontas, Tennessee, where most of the older folks had lived at …
Reader Friday ~ The Bad Boy of Butterfly Harbor
This week I picked up a book I’d been meaning to read for a while. It’s a Heartwarming title – The Bad Boy of Butterfly Harbor by Anna J. Stewart, and I knew it’d be a good read.

And I know why. No good deed goes unpunished! So now I have a new, larger phone. Maybe my fingers won’t hit the wrong …

Funny Blotter Reports
Can you believe it’s October??? This photo is from late last October of a pond not far from my house. Where did 2018 go? The countdown has begun for finishing my first Natchez park ranger romantic suspense that I’m calling Natchez Standoff! So, after two weeks of being out of town and working on edits, I am now hard at …
Reader Friday ~ Bread of Angels
Oh, wow, between getting back from ACFW in Nashville and getting my edits finished, I didn’t have time to read ANYTHING this week, so I’m falling back on a book I read a week ago. Bread of Angels by Tessa Afshar was an ACFW book club pick, and one I probably would not have read otherwise. I am so glad …
Who Did It?
I’ve thought many things about the Opryland Hotel, but I never thought about the beautiful gardens here. Before the 2010 floods in Nashville, the hotel had gorgeous orchids everywhere. The bad news is the flood destroyed them, but the good news is, they are coming back. I was at Opryland for the American Christian Fiction Writers conference where I was a …
