Classy Quotes Wednesday

Well, it’s barely still Wednesday, and I’m behind in my blogginess, but here’s a quote I dug up from my college years. I wrote down numerous quotes from books I was required to read for lit classes (and most of them, I wound up loving). This is from Out of the Silent Planet, by C.S. Lewis, and I’m sorry to… Read More

Classy Quotes Wednesday–MIDDLEMARCH

photo from the 1994 BBC MIDDLEMARCH movie I just want to segue into this post by asking you to pray for those in the path of the Colorado wildfires, and that God will send rain. I know personally how a fire can wreak unbelievable damage in a short amount of time, and that experience sticks with you for life. I… Read More

Classy Quotes Wednesday–MIKE DURAN–THE TELLING

This is kind of hilarious, since Mike Duran and I are kinda like polar opposites on our views of vulgar language in the CBA, an issue highly debated right now in Christian writing circles (I’d love to get your views of that below!). Here’s Mike’s recent post, in which he does quote me…http://mikeduran.com/2012/06/answering-the-weaker-brother-defense/. Yes, I was the one asking about… Read More

Classy Quotes Wednesday–Julia Child

I’ve been devouring a particular book lately: My Life in France, by Julia Child. I love reading about her early years of marriage, including the struggles they endure while living abroad. What I really love is that, in spite of everything, Julia has this awesome attitude that shines through the book. Life is like a great adventure for her. She works… Read More

Classy Quotes Wednesday

On Wednesdays, I want to share some cool quotes with you (posting early this week…still waiting on my new internet service). I find loads of them in the books I read (frequently classics, but sometimes they’re not). Short and sweet…classy quotes. It’s not much…”just a mission statement.” (there’s a little Jerry McGuire quote for ya).Here’s my first Wednesday quote…let me… Read More

Happy #WestVirginiaDay! You might know that I love Happy #WestVirginiaDay! You might know that I love setting my contemporary mystery series in my home state of WV. What you might not know is that there was a time I wanted nothing more than to move away and spread my wings (somewhere like NYC! Where I wound up living for a year when I got married!). But years down the road, I felt my mountain roots pulling me back. Suddenly, I could see nothing but beauty in these comforting mountains and moody skies and honeysuckled summers. West Virginia is so many things—good and bad as any state is—but it’s entirely unique. My husband once marveled at how many people ā€œcame backā€ to their home state here, even after being gone for years, and I see that all the time. These #Appalachianmountains have a way about them, and it becomes a part of you, a love you don’t want to let go of. I’m a #mountainmama, and I’m glad to bring this truly #wildandwonderful state to readers with my books.
