Book Festival Coming!
This year’s Faith & Fellowship Book Festival will be held online and we’ve got a fantastic lineup. It’s free to attend. Will we “see” you there?
Authors and Musicians Corner NOT at the Dublin Irish Festival
All my festivals were canceled this year due to COVID-19. Soooo, I put this together. I hope you’ll come to this live Facebook event. The schedule is up with a vast variety of authors and musicians to entertain you!
My First Motherless Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day Without a Mom It feels kind of weird. I imagine it would be worse if the stores were fully open because I’d be seeing little things to get my mom. She loved little things, multiple packages to open, no matter what was inside. Tissues? Great! A new tube of deodorant? Very thoughtful! Something,…

Happy St. Brigid’s Day!
One Legend There are so many stories of St. Brigid that I love (hint: you’ll find many of them retold in my novel, Brigid of Ireland). But I thought I’d talk about just one today, the story of Brigid and her mother. I wonder if this is where Disney got some its ideas. It’s an…
