The last time anyone heard from me on this author blog, was in July! That’s a long time to go without saying hi, hey? Now here I am with the latest Songdove Books Christmas Promo! Summer this year was crazy, as was the Fall. Things are settling down now, which means I can once againRead More…
Sometimes, I like listening to the radio to get a bead on what society is thinking, feeling, and longing for.

Ruth 3:18 Then said she, Sit still, my daughter, until thou know how the matter will fall: for the man will not be in rest, until he have finished the thing this day.
