Chances are, I haven't met you in person yet, so I hope that this website will help us get to know each other. I'm also hoping that you'll take the time to introduce yourself, because I'd love to meet you!
If you love history, stories, author interviews, and giveaways, like I do, then stop by and subscribe to my blog. I share news about authors, giveaways, interviews, historical notes and tidbits about big families.
I also blog over at the Stitches Thru Time blog Whether it's a conversation with a friend, a word that is penned, or a craft that is made, everything we do leaves a stitch in the fabric of time. Join us as we investigate the stitches of the past and present
About Me:
I was born in Littleton, CO and grew up in a family of 12 children (an experience let me tell you!). I was home-schooled through high-school and I continue to feed my love of learning at home. I currently serve in our 10 family businesses as bookkeeper and marketing director.
During the summer, I enjoy volunteering at a non-profit Christian Family Bootcamp in rural MO helping and ministering to young girls and Christian families. I usually end up spending a good portion of my summers there.
I love history, culture, reading and music. I also love to travel and have been fortunate enough to travel extensively throughout the United States, Europe, and the Holy Land. The Lord has blessed my with a musical ministry and when I travel throughout the United States, I am blessed to minister to the church of Christ thru song. During my spare time I enjoy crafting Christ-honoring stories that will inspire and encourage readers. I currently live with my family outside of Colorado Springs, CO.

The Vision
Ever since I was a child, I have had a wild imagination. Books have been, and always will be my passion. But as I grew older, and began monitoring what my 10 siblings were reading, I realized that there is so much worldly philosophy that has crept into even our "Christian" literature. It was horrifying to me to see certain behavioral patterns arise in the children (and in me!) that could be directly linked to the books they were reading and the media they were watching. I realized vividly that these little children were being trained by worldly minds. The more I thought about the present state of our country, and the more I studied the children of the past, the more I could see the hidden agenda of many of the popular authors, some even unknowingly.
The solution was finally revealed to me while reading a book published in the early 1900's. It was a school girl's fiction piece and in it I read:
"How long will heartless, soulless wives, mothers, sisters & daughters waltz moth-like round the consuming flame of fashion? Whom by neglecting their duty, and deserting their sphere drive their husbands, sons and brothers out into the world; reckless and depraved, calloused in heart; irrevocably laid on the alter of mammon. God help the women of America!"
This was the kind of teaching that young girls were receiving in America's not-so-distant past. This is what inspired me to begin my journey.
My vision is to write stories that will help to revolutionize our culture and share the message and love of Jesus Christ.
Feel free to drop me a line! I'd love to hear from you.
