So glad you dropped by!

After a long career writing for local newspapers — and, on rare occasions, for such publications as The Washington Post — I am enjoying a second-wind season that has ranged from freelance projects to innkeeping.

My JOY Journal blog is an ongoing effort to embrace such simple pleasures as faith, family time and gardens that run wild.

My books are still out and about, as well. They include both Christian chick lit and non-fiction. Learn more by clicking on my BOOK button above — some works are FREE READS.
