Brainstorming, Anyone?

Well, it happened. I knew it might. My editor at Kregel emailed and is hinting that they would like me to finish the Goldtown Adventures middle-grade series with books 5 and 6 (so every series has the same number of books).

2023 Story-Writing Contest Book

I’m excited to start gearing up for the annual story-writing contest. It’s a lot of work, and the first step is creating the cover and title for the 12-story collection.

The Terrible Secret Is Here!

The books came on time (Friday afternoon)! I ordered 25, which means they will probably go fast. I also ordered more Trouble at the Line Shack and the expanded Long Ride Home. The book cover turned out a very pretty orange/rust. I’m happy with it, and I hope you will be too. Single books areContinue reading “The Terrible Secret Is Here!”
