This is a rant if there ever was one. What in the *%#&! happened to proofreading?! In all my years of reading printed material and now e-material, e-books, and e-everything, apparently public education has taken a huge toll on common language and typing skills. The errors are endless. Ridiculous mistakes, typos, misspellings, and every…

                                  {This post is a rerun from 2012 but still applies.}  Writers beware. Talk is cheap. Affirmation is necessary in most peoples' lives. So writers aren't unusual in that regard. But we can be less than satisfied with compliments that ring hollow or seem "canned". After all, we strive to write with a unique…

The idols of the nations are silver and gold,    made by the hands of men. They have mouths, but cannot speak,    eyes, but they cannot see; they have ears, but cannot hear,    nor is their breath in their mouths. Those who make them will be like them,    and so will all…

                                                                                                                                                             Thank you for every one of them, Lord God. Thank you. Please continue to help me with the ones you've given me to tell. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.

                  The second prequel in the Mitch Rapp series by the late Vince Flynn. The publisher has altered the covers of the books over the years, but I think this was an original of Kill Shot. A definite 4.   Lord, thank you for Vince Flynn and all the unique stories you gave him to…

         Winter Austin hits it out of the park with these two covers. Read them in order with Atonement first and Born to Die second. Two big 5s for these.   Lord, please keep directing Winter to write the stories you have for her to tell. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.

                  Well, what did you expect? It's Valentine's Day after all. This is one terrific romance cover and I'm willing to bet Anne Patrick wrote a great story to go with that cover. Love the colors, the muscles, and the young boy sitting on the fence. Just might have to read this one. I'm giving it…

                   I loved this cover so much I actually read the book! You know I don't do historicals, but I read this one and it was a good story. K. M. Weiland has one of the best covers ever on this novel. Not only did I read the book, I ordered a poster of the…

     He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the…

   Man's definition of evil is as vast as the dark of night. It's inconsistent, unreliable, skewed, variable, and often wrong. God's definition of evil is the only one that counts. It doesn't waver. You choose. What you think, what you do, what you understand, what you know. There is an innate sense of good…
