After Our Castle is Launched (+ ENTER THE GIVEAWAY!!!)

Today I’m going to share an Instagram post I shared this Monday because I really liked it. The day after launch day is always a good day to reflect. To think back on previous books in the series and to wonder. What was, what is, and what could have been. I like to stare at […]

After Our Castle | Blog Tour Kick-Off

After Our Castle is launching this weekend, and I don’t really know what to say except “thank you.” Thank you to my street team, for being so sweet and kind. Thank you to my editors (Grace Johnson and Andrea Cox) for their dedication. Thank you to all the random people who have got excited (or […]

What I Do Have I Give You: a tale of paralyzation and ongoing healing

An Introduction with Random Updates It’s not been an easy couple months. It’s not been an easy year. But that’s not surprising, because human life is not easy, and if you expect it to be, well, you’ll be disappointed. But today (meaning earlier this week by the time I’m getting this out) my swing broke […]

After Our Castle | The Chronicles of Alice and Ivy, Book 6 | Cover Reveal

I can’t believe it’s already time to reveal the cover for book 6 in my series. I mean, After Our Castle is still a little baby idea, right? Still mine and mine alone? Here’s the thing. I didn’t expect to write this novel. It was a relatively new development in the last few years because, […]

August 2022 Dares (and June and July 2022 Wrapup!)

I decided now was as good a time as any to wrap up June, July, and most of August! After all, why not? Why shouldn’t I do whatever the heck I want on my own blog? Summer months always seem to blend together for me, no matter what I do, and this summer has been […]

One Good Day Oughta Do Me Some Good

It’s been a challenging couple weeks. I won’t lie, despite the fact that my mother (hi mom!!! I’m on the internet!) and possibly a couple of my employers may read this. 😉 Thankfully, in general my employers (and mother) are familiar with my penchant for the dramatic, so hopefully they’ll be understanding of the desire […]

A Post of Conundrums (in which I ramble about what God is saying to me)

Lately, I’ve been having a lot of thoughts, and it’s been a long time since I’ve rambled here. So I decided to talk about two things: Being a control freak and being a lazy bum. More or less. So let’s talk about that. The Self-Control Conundrum My car has been in two accidents (I was […]

In Which Denial is Just a River, Really {2021 Wrapup & 2022 Goals}

Dear 2021, First of all, how dare you? Okay, but more seriously … I AM IN DENIAL. IT IS NOT 2022! I always feel a little gobsmacked by the new year, but this time, it feels doubly so. 2021 was a wild year. Like, I always say that, but this time, it is so true. […]

I’m Back On the Blog … And I’m Married!

Heyyyyy, y’all! I’m back and ready to blog! Though we’ll see how long I keep at it. 😛 My new goal is to post on this blog every other week (on Wednesdays except when special events come up). Today, I’m sharing some wedding photos, stories, and other updates of my life! It’s a bit of […]
