Blog postMonday was my 51st birthday. I don't mind admitting my age because getting older doesn't bother me. Some people will say it's just another year, or it's only a number. But I say it's the start of another year of life which means I'll have more chances to do what my heart's telling me to do, more opportunities to grow and learn, and more time to spend with the people I love the most! Also, a birthday is a great time for a little indulgence! I scheduled several things this week like a man

Blog postA popular meteorologist in my area posed a challenge to his followers on Facebook. In one word, describe how you’re feeling today. Most of the responses were similar. Grateful. Blessed. Thankful. Happy. But one really stood out to me. The answer was underappreciated because she had no one to share her life with.
As single women, it can be challenging sometimes to keep ourselves out of the negative state of mind. We see couples walking hand in hand, couples sitting at restaurants toget -
Blog postStraight from the book, 3000 Questions About Me, comes the next set of questions and answers about yours truly! (I'm learning stuff about myself I didn't even know!) What do you think about the "tiny house" craze, and is it for you? I love watching shows about these tiny houses. I've seen some fantastic little homes, and while I'd love to visit some of them, I could never live in one of them. What quality or trait do you possess that could make people see you as a warrior? Tenacit

Blog postI believe everyone needs a creative outlet, a way to express themselves after the work of the day is done. Creativity doesn’t just engage the brain; it engages the senses and makes our lives happier. Courtney Carver of BeMoreWith Less wrote that “creativity helps you see things differently and better deal with uncertainty,” and “engaging in the creative process is a great confidence builder.” That’s just two good reasons why creativity is important.
And if those aren’t enough, Medical -
Blog postI went to see Breakthrough preparing for a movie about a miracle, which is exactly what it is. Fourteen-year-old John Smith falls through the ice and is underwater for fifteen minutes before CPR was started. Miraculously, he not only survives the traumatic event, he does so without any cognitive defects. Even leaving it at that, it's a great movie, but there's so much more to it. There is, of course, a strong faith element present in the movie, but along with that comes a story of accept

Blog postthat touch you, that stay with you long after the last note ends. That song, for me, is I Can Only Imagine by MercyMe. I usually play it on repeat when I'm on longer trips. The lyrics are both powerful and hopeful, offering a promise of what's to come. Having lost two friends within the last two years, it reminds me that I'll see them again.

Blog postTomorrow will be a better day. It’s a cliche we’ve all heard. And, sometimes, we even try to believe. We think that if we crawl into our beds and close our eyes, we’ll wake up to a day that is 100% better than the day before. I’m a firm believer in the power of positive thinking, but I also believe in tempering that with a healthy dose of reality.
Things don’t magically get better, and problems don’t just go away. So trying to convince yourself that the rising of the sun will wipe the -
Blog postNerves are always involved when you start a new job. Even if it’s a career you’ve been doing for years, you’re still facing the unknown with new colleagues, a different way of doing things, and a new boss. Still, you don’t want to appear too anxious on your first day so there are some things you can do to temper the nerves and ensure a successful day!
Get a good night’s sleep—at least seven to eight hours. It’s normal to be on edge the night before you start a new job, but you need to fe -

Blog postI've never read the All Souls Trilogy by Deborah Harkness, but when I saw the trailer for the television series, A Discovery of Witches, which is based upon her series, I knew it was something I had to watch. Paranormal television is right up my alley. It debuted in the UK in September 2018. Unfortunately, we in the United States had to wait, and I forgot about it...until I was scrolling through my TV guide and episode two would be airing on a local channel. My quest to find the first epis

Blog postI’m sure we’ve all heard the saying “you need to get your ducks in a row,” but the question is: have we done it? As single women, even those who have close family members, we have to make sure we can take care of ourselves long into the future. And we have to make arrangements for those times when we can’t. Let’s start with some of the basics you need to consider as well as items that should definitely be on your to-do list.
Will No one wants to think about preparing a will, but it is -
Blog postI bought this book at Target, which is my all-time favorite store, and thought it would be a wonderful way for you to get to know me better and for me to share some other aspects of my life with you. So I'll pick and choose a few questions each week to share with you.
What is the funniest movie you've ever seen? Without a Paddle. This is one movie I can watch over and over again and still laugh out loud. What is the one thing if you ever lost it would devastate you? A ring som -

Blog postWriting romance can be daunting, especially if you're just getting started. (Most of the time, it's challenging even for those of us who have been doing it for years on end!) But I've written a class for Women-on-Writing which can help you navigate your first story, work around some obstacles, and get excited about creating something readers will love. And best of all, it's half price begging April 29th! Over four weeks, we’ll cover the sub-genres of romance, outlining, the basics of

Blog postThis is a 1,400 word except from the first book in a young adult vampire series that is almost complete. Hope you enjoy! How many more times was Mrs. Sanderson going to tell us to make sure we were inside before dawn? I think all of us in the class had figured out by now that sunlight and vampires didn’t go together…at all. And her consistent drilling of the fact had created a restlessness in the classroom.
My friend, Jenny, passed a folded-up piece of paper to me. I kept my h -

Blog postA Potion to Die For by Heather Blake
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This was my first cozy mystery as I've just now gotten into the genre, and I can honestly say I couldn't have picked a better book as my first! Heather Blake has such a way with characterization that you feel as though you actually know the characters.
Fast-paced and humorous, the story kept my attention easily, and I couldn't wait to find out who'd killed the poor victim. And just when I thought I knew, -
Blog postToday, I'm happy to introduce C. Hope Clark, the author of the Edisto Island Mystery Series as well as the Carolina Slade Mysteries. She's here today to talk about a crossover novel that includes both sleuths! A crossover occurs when the characters of one book (or series) cross paths with those in another book (or series). Embarrassingly, I never heard of the term Crossover Book until my publisher asked me to write one. Then I thought, Oh, crap, how am I going to do this!

Blog postI mentioned in a previous post on retirement that I would discuss more about budgeting and even how to restructure a budget if you have one. Very few people love a budget, but they are a necessity if you want the absolute best life you can have. How can I be sure of that? Besides my own experience with it, I’ve read dozens upon dozens of articles and books by experts that all say the same thing. A budget is necessary.

Blog postPart 1 The future is right around the corner; it’s coming faster than we think. And we have to be prepared for it. As we age, we start to think about retiring, what we need to have the best life once we do, and how to make sure we’re not a burden to any one. And that takes meticulous planning, starting with a retirement fund.
If you struggle to make ends meet, you may be thinking how in the world am I supposed to worry about retirement when I can barely keep the lights on. But we’re -
Blog postWe all have those days when our thoughts run away with us.
You get a letter from the IRS, and before you even open it, you know you’re getting audited. Your boss calls you into the office, and the walk there has you imagining yourself in the unemployment line. You can’t find your car in the parking lot, and you immediately think it’s been stolen. Thoughts like these can make our lives a little more stressful than they need to be. We shouldn’t live our lives afraid of what might

Blog postIf you’re single, you know what it’s like being alone. Except for the time you might spend at work or with friends, you’re alone. You go home to an empty house. You start each day by yourself. Most of the time, you eat at home alone, watch tv alone, and spend a good portion of your time on your own…if you choose.
How you spend your time, regardless if you’re single or married, is a choice, and your state of matrimony doesn’t guarantee you’ll never feel lonely again. Everybody does at -
Blog postWe have all had this moment of sheer panic. You get into your car, ready to go to work, you turn the key in the ignition, and nothing happens. No matter how many times you try, your car won’t start, but your panic does. You don’t have another vehicle or the money to repair the one you do have.
It doesn’t do me any good to say don’t freak out because you will. (Been there.) So give yourself a few minutes to work through your dismay. After that, you need to get busy with solutions. The
