“I will take the Ring,” he said, “though I do not know the way.” – The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien Frodo knew nothing of the world outside the Shire, except for the tidbits Bilbo shared with him. He didn’t know the depth of the darkness he would face or the weight of […]
January Thoughts
I’ve been overwhelmed for what seems to be that last few months. As I look ahead to 2020, I see an ever-growing to-do list with my fourth book releasing in May, and then I see this timely reminder waiting for me to notice it on my shelf. I’m reminded that I’m not doing this life […]

Learning and Growing
“I’m bigger now.” My three-year-old son stands on his dining chair, having refused his booster seat. “But I’m still little, too.” I know exactly how he feels. I have two books published. That’s something I wasn’t sure would ever happen, though it was always a dream. Some days, it still doesn’t feel real. But it […]
