Last night my husband and I took our seventeen-year-old daughter to a local indoor shooting range. Since we’re relatively new to the whole handgun thing, this was her first chance to shoot one. In fact, the real reason I’ve gotten into guns recently is because a few of my characters use them, but I didn’t […]
Hi all. My daughter asked me to ask people how they feel about immunizations for a paper she is doing for a college class. She would love as many people as possible to answer the following questions. Please help! So far she has only four responses. Every opinion is appreciated. Please feel free to write […]
The last book on my catch-up review list is The Stone Traveler by Kathi Oram Peterson.

It’s been a busy past few months for me, and I’m so late on this review that it’s embarrassing. In fact, I have three reviews that I’ll be posting in the next few days. Nothing like a daughter’s wedding, a month-long trip to Europe, a broken ankle that refuses to heal, and a pending deadline […]
Before my recent trip to Europe, I was given an electronic copy of Michele Ashman Bell’s new novel Hometown Girl. I uploaded it to my Kindle with a bunch of other books, and I was ready for anything. Layovers, plane delays, I didn’t care. I had BOOKS. Hometown Girl was the first I read. The […]
