Learn how creativity can breathe life into your soul!
It was difficult to post this morning and tonight in light of the Haiti tragedy. Any words written seemed ridiculous while watching the suffering on the news and internet. After deciding how I could help, I chose to post anyway. During these times of earth-shattering crisis, I am proud to be a part of humankind. Seeing countries …

"Behold, The land of the Little People…of which I am just one!"      When I was a young mother, my children, niece, and nephews used to gather around as I told them make-believe stories. Fascination glowed from captivated faces. Otherwise squirming bodies calmed as together we set out on adventures into a magical land of little …

We might see a glimpse through a dream or an epiphany, but often the promises of God form over a lifetime. Moving forward in darkness of sight…one step at time… is the usual.                                     I do not know what my future holds, but I do know I have never been happier than since I started writing …

He whispers through dreams filling mind with lofty thoughts of longings coming true. Awakening to write them down is also His …
As I look towards the New Year and coming decade, the desire to take a personal inventory prevails. My burgeoning artistic projects and passions have become unruly. Like a plant that outgrows pot and climbs up and over the garden wall; runners stretch out in all directions while roots dig deeply firmly into my life's soil. So much to …
Off to the editor! There are solemn moments in a writer's life requiring Selah, pause and calmly think of this. These moments request a photograph in order to preserve for remembering. Yesterday culminated in such an amazing moment. After years of gathering life experiences into a loose leaf manuscript, I ceremoniously wrapped the bundle with …
