It’s Sunday night as I write this blog post. I just got home from a two day run that started late Thursday night. Oh, yeah…another event happened to me. This is the second time this year I’ve been stranded in a motel room for over a day because of an event. An uneventful week would… Continue reading My Events are Getting More Serious

A Dr. Seuss-ish Post
I have some opening lines in my head. They seem a bit like something Dr. Seuss would write so this could get interesting. I guess I’m letting y’all into a writer’s brain for a change…this writer’s brain anyway. Here goes… What if a dog and a frog sat on a log? Would there still be… Continue reading A Dr. Seuss-ish Post
What is Success?
Everyone wants to be successful. I understand that completely. Why is it so hard to achieve something so popular? Perhaps it’s because too few people are willing to do whatever it takes to be successful. It’s like writing a book. A lot of people say they want to write a book. What they really mean… Continue reading What is Success?

Eek’s Gifts Book Trailer
I just completed my first attempt at making a book trailer. Eek will be set loose upon the world next month so I thought I’d do my part to get the world prepared for his adorableness now. I used several of the illustrations Dyann Joyce created to tell a condensed story of Eek and Aagh.… Continue reading Eek’s Gifts Book Trailer
You Can Have a Major Part in Writing 3 Books

A Scatter-shot Blog Post From a Scatter-brained Life
I don’t know about y’all, but 2016 has begun in a whirlwind for me. That’s what I get for being stuck between multiple careers at once. Driving and/or painting goes from 5-6 day a week to 2-3 days the next and back again. Somehow the bills are getting paid. The manna is just enough as… Continue reading A Scatter-shot Blog Post From a Scatter-brained Life
I feel sorry for people who don’t have a relationship with Jesus Christ
A week and a half ago I had a spiritual experience that can only come from a personal relationship with God through the atoning work of Jesus Christ. It involved a semi, the stars and a familiarity with the Bible. It began with my agreeing to take another delivery run to west Texas. There were… Continue reading I feel sorry for people who don’t have a relationship with Jesus Christ
My observations of the 2015 Maranatha Christian Writers’ Conference
Somebody told me before I came to Maranatha that this was considered the best small conference for Christian writers. I confirm that recommendation. One of the best things about attending conferences is meeting people. Running into old writing friends is always a joy. Gail Gaymer Martin insisted she get a picture of the two of… Continue reading My observations of the 2015 Maranatha Christian Writers’ Conference
