The pun in the title is on purpose. I'm not slacking at proofreading just yet. I was able to sit down with L.R.W. Lee and participate in her YouTube channel, Book Nerd Paradise. She has new and experienced authors alike give a brief synopsis of our book, tell one of our favorite quotes and pose a [...]

Back From Hibernation
So, it's been months since I posted. I'd like to say I was backpacking or researching or been hammering out novels one after another. No, I've just been living life and getting caught up with it at every turn. And who wakes up and stretches their arms out all refreshed?! I'm more like this kid: [...]
It’s Official
The 1,000 mile journey is over. What's that mean? It means there is a new author born into this world, birth date of 8/1/2014. Won't you help me celebrate? If you want that one, last good read of the summer or something you can easily get into between the other series you are invested in, [...]
Join Me at the Finish Line
That's right! The days of waiting, wondering and pondering are at an end. A Time to Reap is officially a book and available this Friday. So, August 1st, what should you do with a portion of that paycheck? Um, entertain yourself for hours with my story for less than the price of a cup of [...]
TTTG CH. 7: After the Death of Joshua
The abrupt departure of my mother left Mo and I standing and debating the mind-reader scenario for a while. After a stalemate of ideas, we moved on to the possible scenarios of who would want to kill Mo and why. Our suspect list included the Deslin twins and possibly faculty at our school. The list [...]
TTTG Ch. 6: After the Death of Mo…
I admit it; I was embarrassed in this specific instance. So much, I refused to let go of Mo until she swore she would not open her eyes, even a crack. I think she was starting to think I was some kind of pervert until she listened to the ruckus of embarrassing thoughts catapulting in [...]
Ch. 5: These Are the Words…
There’s so much to process from the past couple of days. After Dr. Phillips takes my report for an exhausting two hours, I promptly collapse and sleep through the next day. I wake up briefly to the smell of my mother’s sausage, snap pea, and bowtie pasta creation, but barely say a word as [...]
Ch. 4: The Lord Spoke…
Lord Ray. That’s the last real thought pushing through the narrow opening in my mind. My mother is now aware of the lies I disguised as facts just moments ago. And somehow, I think not trusting her was a wise idea. I’m certain if I had stuck around longer, there would have been many [...]
Ch. 3: The Lord Called…
The message is disturbing, I admit. The one person on this earth I trust more than I do myself is apparently the one I shouldn’t—so sayeth the Crayola washable marker on my forearm. I don’t recall ever having the need to scrub something off my skin quite as ferociously as in these moments before [...]
Ch. 2: These are the Names…
The next morning, I’m still reciting the mantra the countdown created in my mind. One week, five days, and a handful of hours remain, according to the timetable laid out in the note. I am still no closer to figuring out who left it for me or to what purpose. Prepare yourself. Yeah, that’s [...]
