  • Cover Reveal for Hold Your Breath, Crossroads Suspense Book 2 with Mountain Brook Ink

    August 31, 2023 /

    Here it is! I absolutely love how the cover for Hold Your Breath, book two in my Crossroads Suspense series, turned out! The cover design session was the easiest one I’ve ever participated in. My publisher Mountain Brook Ink let me share my vision with the designer, and Lynnette Bonner nailed it on the first try. I hope you like it as much as…

  • Author Chat with Angela Ruth Strong on her New Release, Hero Debut

    August 29, 2023 /

    I’m so excited to resume the author chat series with an interview with Christian romance author Angela Ruth Strong. Her writing voice is clear, sincere, and contagiously entertaining, and although I haven’t had the privilege of meeting her in person, I have a feeling it is a natural reflection of her personality. Please join me in welcoming Angela to the…

  • How to Trust God When You Don’t Feel Ready

    July 13, 2023 /

    Almost one year ago, my baby boy arrived three weeks before he was due. I had gone to my doctor’s office for a routine stress test, and since I wasn’t feeling great, asked my husband to come with me at the last minute. When the nurse said, “We need to send you to the hospital for monitoring,” I was stunned.…

  • 10 Opportunities to Read to Your Little One Every Day

    June 6, 2023 /

    As my little boy grows older each month, I love introducing him to new books and curling up with him on the couch to read his favorites a few times before bed. But often, time is scarce, and our reading time, shorter than I’d like. That’s why I asked my friend, fellow boy mom, and author Ashley L. Jones to…

    May 17, 2023 /

    Do you listen to audiobooks? I’m so thrilled that Take My Hand is now available in audio format on Audible and narrated by the talented Sarah Rogers.

  • A Mother’s Day Gift You’ll Love to Give: I Love You, Mom by Blythe Daniel and Helen McIntosh

    May 2, 2023 /

    The day my sweet baby boy says, “Mama” for the first time, I’m probably going to form a puddle of joyful tears. For now, I’ll settle for his happy vocalizing. Words have power, don’t they? Yet we often take for granted how precious they are. The simple words, “I love you,” can make such an impact. That’s why I think…
