More about my latest mystery, Guilt by Association, and my road to publication

I was honored that Guilt by Association was chosen to be the March read for the Avid Readers of Christian Fiction book club. I’d never done Facebook Live before, so I was a bit terrified (it is LIVE, I discovered, after a trial run in which I was murmuring to myself on camera and jolting it about). But once I saw so… Read More

God’s Daughter is FREE/Ebook for October!

Just wanted to give a heads-up, in case you’re not subscribed to my email or you don’t follow me on Facebook, that my first Viking historical, God’s Daughter, is FREE for e-reader for the month of October, to celebrate Leif Erikson Day (he’s in the book!).

As you can read in my sample chapters, it’s a quote directly out of the Icelandic sagas about Gudrid. I think it sums her up as only the sagas… Read More

GOD’S DAUGHTER Quotes Pin Series

Okey-doke, this is my next-to-last pin. It is, admittedly, NOT my best pin! I wanted to use the real statue of Gudrid and her baby, Snorri, but it looks blurry since I took it from Wikipedia (so it would be free to use, as I understand). This statue is in Laugarbrekka, Iceland, which is where Gudrid was born. ANYWAY. I… Read More
