Miracles?

Are miracles still taking place in this crazy, topsy-turvy world we live in? Yes, I believe they are.

What about the ability to get up in the mornings? Isn’t it a miracle the way blood pumps through our bodies, and our lungs retract and expand, pulling life-giving air into our being? Man can do lots of things, but he cannot create a living, breathing, spirit filled man, woman or child. If you still don’t believe in miracles think about this.

How did you feel…

Create. Is That All There Is To It?

I love the 1998 movie, Field of Dreams, which stars Kevin Costner. It has been a long time favorite of mine. It inspires a feeling of hope in me. Even after fourteen years the quote from the movie, “Build it, and they will come,” often rivets through my mind.

I have a tin ornament that hangs in front of me at my desk that my editor gave me for Christmas this past year. It has a picture painted on it of a lady with curled red hair, red lips, flashy dress and beads…

Mark 10: 13-16

16) And he…

What's My Genre?

I recently finished reading my seventeenth novel written by, Mary Higgins Clark titled, I’ll Walk Alone. I hadn’t read one of her books in a couple of years and had forgot what a talented writer she is. For thirty-five years she has been writing heart-pounding thrillers. She truly is the queen of suspense.

Road Trip: Destination Unknown?

There’s nothing like an adventurous road trip to clear your head and let your tendonitis elbow rest. I love to hit the highway with no particular destination in mind except to forge deeper into the old South.

All we knew when we struck out on a trip last week was that we were going to Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. Why, because we had never been to those states. My husband, Jerry only has five more states to visit and he will have been in all fifty. I have twelve more.…
