I just bought a new printer. I looked at several and spent hours reviewing comments and recommendations. There were certain features I had to have on it: wireless printing, printing from my iPad, phone and computer. This one even prints from the Cloud. Cool. I settled...

I struggle to write. I sit on the sofa, my favorite place to be. Doesn't feel right. I move to the wonderful, inherited-from-Harriet-chair in the bedroom, which is always inspiring. No. I pray — that has to be right. … … … I would rather write...

I'm finding my way in this writing gig. When I first did NaNoWriMo three years ago, I wrote for hours without a break. Ugh. The first day I wrote 6,000 words was a horrible day. I felt like I had been chopped up in little pieces and pasted back together all WRONG....

I love cake … No. I. Love. Cake. Cake AND frosting! Ask my sister! In my devo time the other day, (from Jesus Calling by Sarah Young — thank you, sister!) I read “I will get you safely through this day and all your days. But you can find Me only in the...
