    Slowly starting to get back into the swing of things, but it’s tough. Glad we’re not homeschooling until next week (smart hubby!) as it’s helping me ease back into my regular schedule. I’ve been working on my short story all week, however tonight I wandered into journal mode, pondering the question of why my stories…

    It’s a good thing that the online clutter I have is seen only by me because visitors to my electronic world would take one look, then quickly turn around and leave! And I’m certain I would hear faint whispers of “hoarder” as they quickly pass from view… Yes, I admit it…I collect information. Lots of…

    Still plugging away, albeit much slower than I like, on my story; working title In His Name. So far I’d say that it’s a “thriller”. I put the word “thriller” into quotes because I’m not entirely sure it fits that category. I’m also leaning towards “horror”, which, thanks to Mike Duran’s awesome treatise Christian Horror: On…

    I don’t watch TV…in fact we don’t even own what folks have always called “the idiot box”…but I’ve heard people reference a television program titled “Ancient Aliens”. From what I understand some people think that humans were “seeded” by smarter, intelligent beings (aliens). Who of course are kind and caring and oh so benevolent! Yeah…right! Agenda…

      If you’ve never read the book of Enoch, then let’s just say you’re in for a big surprise. Before I dig into Enoch,  let’s look at one of the books that the mainstream church has canonized…Jude. The following is taken from Jude Chapter 1, verses 14 and 15. The “these” that Jude is referencing…

    The name has been running through my brain for the past month or so…the hope project. Don’t know what it will be exactly…I’m thinking a book perhaps? Don’t know… One of the Enemy’s (Christians, take note here…) most insidious tactics for defeating Christians is to take away our hope. He can, of course, take away…

    I used to be a news junkie. It all started with the hearings on the Iran Contra “affair”. Until then, I’d had no real interest in politics or what was happening in the world…I lived my life, went to work, paid the bills and that was pretty much it. The news was just a blip…

    Ah, technology. I know very little about setting up websites, mapping domains, etc. A fact that was probably abundantly clear if you stopped by this blog anytime this past week. I purchased a domain through wordpress for my copywriting business Northwoodswriter.com, but unfortunately it got mixed up with this blog when I did it because…

    Faith without works is dead, right? So now I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to show some “works” by believing God for a new writing client or other source of income. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, my writing eggs were all in a single basket (which of course I knew wasn’t very smart) and now that…

    Yeah! Wrapped up Visitor to Blue Lake: a Jazz and Slade Story at around the 20K mark. It’s cover page time while I wait on the beta reader to give me some feedback in a few weeks, both for this most recent story and a revision for the other one in the series which of course wasn’t…
