The Gloucester Pact
Jim McPartland

I pick up the paper this morning and laugh at a story about the woman suing Victoria’s Secret because a g-string she was trying on snapped and hit her in the eye. It was no more than 10 minutes after I read it that she’s on MSNBC with her lawyer talking about her ‘agony’. I literally screamed at the TV- ‘YOU STUPID JERK!’ How can MSNBC even waste their time on this nonsense? She’s obviously way…

I promised myself when I got up this morning I would work on doing 3 query letters to potential literary agents, sending them on Monday. But here I am writing another story instead. Just because someone who will remain nameless suggested I do. The same someone that I challenged to write her own blog and so far has failed me miserably. But like Al Pacino in Godfather 3, I’m being ‘pulled back in’ to…

Preparing Our Hearts to Serve
Foundation to Leadership
As leadership and the Body of Christ ventures into outward focused ministries and develop inward ministerial structures to hold the impending harvest, we find a deficit in consistent faithfulness and service from pure hearts in leaders, as well as congregants. There is a vacuum of heart-based leadership development where we examine the motives and intents of the heart in order to labor in purity with one another that…

The gentle strains of a waltz fill the room as they approach the dancefloor. His frame towers over hers, more than double her size. Instead of intimidating, it's a comforting guide through the unknown steps of the dance. He gently takes the diminutive beauty's hands and guides her patent shoe clad feet onto the top of his, riding.
The once intimidating, crowded dancefloor changes from her new vantagepoint. Riding on his feet her steps are certain, smooth and elegant. Her body sways,…

Today I once again stand in awe at the privilege of living in independence, saluting the flag, becoming citizens, pledging allegiance to the United States of America—all gifts we still treasure. We received them when my family and I became naturalized citizens of the United States, the most powerful country in the world.
But its power, prosperity and prestige came with a price. A cost that spills to the family of courageous soldiers, their sacrifice and yes, that of their loved…

My week long LibraryThing chat is now finished, and boy, did I get some
great questions. The chat is open for viewing to anyone (you don't need to sign up to LibraryThing, though it is a pretty cool promotional tool). Just drop by
LibraryThing and check it out. I made a ridiculous offer there to anyone who dropped in, with the aim of allowing visitors to read my novel, but I'm holding that offer for book marketing…

Happy 4th of July! What blessings God has given us in our dear country. We are free to vote, school our children how we choose, read what we want, travel, and live the lives we choose. No one tells us where we must live, or what we must do for a living. We can choose our own church, doctor, and laws!! I love America!!
Jesus gave us the ultimate freedom. He freed us from death from sin, and he also freed us from living under the Law of the Old testament. We have…

Hello Friends!

Ms. Kennedy's strong plotting, captivating characters and her inventive new twist on romance made both Enchanting the…

You never know which personality might arise from this author who writes under several pseudonyms to keep the genres separate in the hearts and minds of her readers. In particular, she chose to separate her genres with pseudonyms to add a level of parental control so that the young readers of her Reggie & Ryssa series won’t go…
