Do you enjoy reading inspirational fiction and nonfiction?

Are you looking for hope? That’s why I’m here. To share the hope I’ve been given.

As a writer, I pen novels, short stories, articles, and devotions. On my blog you’ll find author interviews, book reviews, and inspirational news stories. I also share personal experiences and thoughts as I grow in my own spiritual life.

The written word is powerful. It can comfort, challenge, and inspire. It can make us laugh, and it can bring us to tears. It can teach, take us on an adventure, and help us dream. When I walk into a library or bookstore, I get a natural high from the smell of books. The hunt for treasure hidden in the shelves brings a rush.

I grew up in a small town in Wisconsin. A highlight of every summer was my weekly visit to our town library, housed in a corner room of the volunteer fire station. I became hooked on reading and one year won a contest for most books read. My prize? Not one, but two Nancy Drew mysteries. I was in my own form of heaven!

Now I’m not only reading novels, I’m writing them. Although my stories are fictional, they’re about real people with real struggles, with a little bit of humor and romance woven in. I want readers to be entertained, but also given hope that God is still in control.
