A Labor of Love: Tampa Bay Dog
Years ago when I began to take pictures of dogs at the SPCA, my world changed in many ways. First, I became keenly interested in photography, to the point that I am now a professional photographer (when I'm not writing books). Second, I became aware that there is a...
Bathsheba and Ahithophel
I've been tickled pink with most of the reviews of BATHSHEBA as they trickle in, but I'm always a little chagrinned when someone takes issue with something I wrote in the book. For instance, I read a review last night where a woman said that "nowhere in the Bible...

BOM: The editing (Bathsheba)
David Long, my editor at Bethany, did the substantive edit on this book, and my agent offered input, too. My biggest problem (and have I ever mentioned how important it is to have other people give you their perspective?) was that Bathsheba's story spanned at least...
Bom: The Writing (Bathsheba: Reluctant Beauty)

Once you've written one historical novel about a biblical character, a great deal of the research is done--after that, it's just a matter of refreshing your memory and digging into story particulars. Because I've written biblical historical fiction before (Dreamers,...
BOM: The germination of the idea
Some books spring into the mind from out of the blue, and some, like this, are structured into a series. Since I had already decided that the second book would be Bathsheba--a woman who's beauty clearly got her into trouble--then the idea was simple--tell her story...
Book of the Month: Bathsheba, Reluctant Beauty
If it's September first, it's time for another book of the month because I actually have TWO books releasing today! The first is STREET GOD, which is really Dimas Salaberrios's book--I helped him write his story after Tyndale House contacted me. I was with some...
Alone in Las Vegas, or How I Lost my Hope
I blogged every single day for about five years, then ran out of things to say. So now I only blog when I'm inspired. 🙂 Which I am, at the moment. ***** I don't know about you, but lately I've found it easy to look around and think that I'm living through the...
