Photo by Debby Hudson on Unsplash Linda’s eyes opened slowly. Morning sunlight bathed the blankets on the bed. The green and yellow gingham curtains slow danced in the gentle breeze coming in the open window. The room wasn’t big but it wasn’t tiny either. The ceiling dipped down on both sides of her bed, creating a cosy feeling. … Continue reading Full Circle – Part 2

Full Circle – Part 1
This is the first part of a new serial story I published on Medium.com. Part 2 will be out next weekend.
A New Beginning
Our new kitchen, before the movers arrived. New beginnings can be exciting and full of hope, or stressful with challenges and uncertainty. Sometimes it’s a rollercoaster ride running the whole gamut of those emotions and everything in between. That’s what this move has been like. Our house was on the market for six months, which … Continue reading A New Beginning
Sister Lost – Published on Amazon Today
Today is a very special day—a lifelong dream became reality. My debut Christian Contemporary novel was published on Amazon. I have been writing since the age of 8, and to actually hold a book with my name in the author space is both surreal and satisfying. Claire's story has been four years in the making … Continue reading Sister Lost – Published on Amazon Today
Adventures In Publishing – Part 2

I cannot stress strongly enough, how necessary it is to get another editor to … Continue reading Adventures In Publishing – Part 1

I can't believe it's December 10th and 2022 is winding down. So many setbacks this year have resulted in my goals being delayed. It's been a struggle, but I am committed to seeing them become a reality, so I plug away at my own speed, which often resembles that of a turtle. Such is my … Continue reading My Adventures In Editing – Part 5
Flashback To The 80s
Today was a strange day. I had many things on my to-do list, including this blog post. As I sat drinking my morning coffee, scrolling through Twitter, one headline stopped time and flashed me back into the 80s before a tear could fall. My teen years were lived out in the 80s, with high school … Continue reading Flashback To The 80s
My Adventures In Editing – Part 4
Brooke Campbell on Unsplash I can’t believe it’s been two months since my last blog post. Time seems to change as we get older. That’s not exactly true, because it’s been subjective our entire lives. What am I talking about? Remember back to when you were a child… did time seem to pass in slow … Continue reading My Adventures In Editing – Part 4
