I can tell you that I'm old enough that my generation grew up very different than the Gen Y'ers of today.  I know it's hard to believe Virginia; but there weren't computers in every home.  The only phones around were landlines.  No cell phones, smart phones, Droids, texting are anything else. …

It was while I was recovering from a particularly nasty motorcycle accident last year that I decided to write the book. I had been threatening to put pen to paper and write an autobiography that would chronicle my many adventures and mishaps during a twenty year Navy career but had never done anything about it. The project would be just the ticket to keep me busy while all…

I think one of the biggest worries for a new or seasoned author is that others will enjoy your book as much as you enjoyed writing it.  At least this was one of the many feelings I encountered, in addition to nervousness of course.  Imagine how excited I was when the reviews came in and they were great.  This is my first fiction book.  My first book was non-fiction.  I decided to switch it up and it turned out to be great.

Actually, I have several VC’s throughout the day.

Wake Up Call - Part 3 is part of a series of blogs posted on my website.  In this blog I share the urgency in the voice of God that woke me up late one night.  It is an urgent and timely call for us to examine our hearts, get our focus firmly set on Jesus and do what He has called and equipped us to in these last days.  There is a saying, "there's no time like the present".  I couldn't have said it better myself.  There really is…

Written to give sister to sister love of hope and help to those that may be walking that mile or two in my or other women shoes. Most of all it is here to all those that have not reached this point to allow them to be for-warned. Messages are sent through a puff of smoke, on the wings of a dove…
