"You don't just luck into things . . . You build step by step, whether it's friendships or opportunities."

*Barbara Bush {Former US First Lady}

I've been saying that for years, just not quite the same way that she did.

My Commitment

Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. Hab. 3:17-18

Authors I enjoy

Angela Elwell Hunt
Everything Angie writes is well-written. Not always easy to read, but definitely *worth* reading.
Anne McCaffrey
One of the reigning queens of Science Fiction.
C.S. Lewis
Celia Hayes
Celia Hayes is not only a favorite author but a personal friend. If you like historical fiction, especially thoroughly researched, well-written historical fiction about Texas, you need to read her books.
Dick Francis
Earlene Fowler
If Benni Harper were a real person, I'd want to be her friend.
Elizabeth Moon
Sci-Fi/Fantasy. LOVE her Deed of Paksenarrion, and her entire Heris Serrano/Esmay Suiva series.
J.R.R. Tolkien
Kristen Britain
Sci-Fi/Fantasy
Louis L'Amour
He wrote more than just westerns, people....
Madeleine L'Engle
My all-time fave. Both her fiction and non-fiction are very readable, and always thought-provoking.
S.M. Stirling
Time-travel/Alternate Histories.
Terri Blackstock
Some of the best legal thrillers (for lack of a better term) I've read. Believable characters that it's easy to care about, as well.
Terry Pratchett
Hilarious!

This is True
Randy Cassingham's e-newsletter proving that "truth is stranger than fiction, because fiction has to make sense." From the website: This is True is a weekly syndicated newspaper column by Colorado humorist Randy Cassingham. True reports on bizarre-but-true news items from legitimate newspapers from around the world (never "tabloids"). Each story ends with commentary by Randy -- a tagline which is humorous, ironic or opinionated.
