Today, announcing the official schedule for the 2024 AVALON LOST Book Tour!
Avalon Lost Author Interview with Legend Fiction
Today I am delighted to share my first author interview for AVALON LOST, featured on "The Legend Fiction Show":
Of Kindergartens and Kings
"Why can't I just stay home with you, Mommy?" my son would ask me, day after day.
I wrapped him up in a big bear hug. "Well," I explained, "I am not a good teacher. I want someone who knows what they're doing to teach you."
Still, I thought about it. Maybe I could homeschool my son instead.
An Unexpected Diagnosis
And then on December 27, 2021, my son received a special needs diagnosis. This unexpected life change gutted my mental stamina for writing about tough topics. I needed to refocus my energy on helping our son.
My Writing Journey, Part I
During the past four years, I have discovered that my fantasy and real-life stories are often deeply and strangely intertwined.
Also, the cover reveal for Avalon Lost, my debut YA fantasy novel.
The Cloistered Heart, Part 3: Spiritual Heartache
You said you have so long waited...for the convent of the heart. When I first found Nancy Shuman's book, The Cloistered Heart, I just kept saying to myself, "How does she know?"
-Email message from Cora Brown, a Cloistered Heart
The Cloistered Heart, Part 2
"Heart cloister can be lived by single or married persons, religious or clergy or lay, male or female. Because we carry our enclosure with us, we can be united in heart with God wherever we may be." - The Cloistered Heart Way of Life, by Nancy Shuman
The Cloistered Heart
Cora had assured me that twelve women were presently following this cloistered way of life. She’d also written that the Cloistered Heart was a “call” – something given to a person by God.
Jesus, are you calling me to this way of life? I wondered.
Welcome Valerie Inez!
Our third child, Valerie Inez Kreger, arrived 8 weeks early this February 2023. We are so grateful to God for our "feisty" little girl!
My Two Valentines
I wrote as if I had an audience. As if someone else would someday want to know what had happened to me on November 29, 2013. My heart told me that this little “thing” was the real thing—the first flowering of my betrothal to Christ, and a gift that would never be taken away from me, as long as I lived.
