Book Review: For the Weary Life Traveler by Christine F. Perry
Traveling is something my husband and I love to do, and we’re excited to introduce our baby boy to our favorite places as he grows up. However, not all travel is smooth-sailing, and sometimes, plans gone wrong can leave us feeling weary. When I read Christine F. Perry’s title for her latest release, it immediately resonated with me due to my own passion for travel and ensuing misadventures … like the time in Sicily where our rental car died at five in the morning, the back-up train never showed up, and then my debit card wouldn’t work for the taxi driver. Praise God my friend and I both made our…

Fall for Fiction Sale! The Rogues Trilogy
Did you know Swiss Miss makes a pumpkin spice hot chocolate mix and a peppermint hot chocolate mix? I am preferring the peppermint at the moment because it tastes like Christmas. My husband says it’s way too early to be talking like that, but just the same, a drink that tastes like Christmas makes me smile. All that to say … What better companion to a cup of hot chocolate than a book! And this week, my entire Rogues trilogy is on sale for only $.99 each on Kindle. All three will cost less than that peppermint hot chocolate mix (which was about $2 at Target). Now all you need…

Author Chat with Eva Marie Everson on Her New Release, The Third Path
In 2020, I had the privilege of being part of Eva Marie Everson’s Labyrinth class at the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writer’s Conference. In the class, she presented us with questions that God posed to characters in the Bible and challenged us to answer them ourselves. It was an incredibly rich class that I will never forget, and I’ve been waiting since then for her book on this topic to release. Two years later, The Third Path is in print, and it is a gem. I’m only part way through, mostly because my newborn likes to skip naps and I have new-mom exhaustion, but I look forward to savoring it…
