Just out: A NEW THING, a small town romance

If you are looking for a sweet, small-town romance with all the southern, cozy feels—A New Thing could be the book for you! A story of second chances and forgiveness, this heartwarming Christian fiction will invite you into the lives of unique characters in the charming town of Worthville, touching on challenges of the empty nest, running a business, complex family relationships, and the possibility of romance. A delightful, encouraging read… perfect, of course, with a glass of sweet tea! —Laura Thomas, award-winning Christian fiction author

Also recently released:

In Search of the Painted Bunting is a poignant and perceptive portrait of a young girl struggling with timeless challenges. Cornelia Taylor is on a quest to find an exotic bird, the Painted Bunting. But, like all quests, her path does not go on a straight line. It branches out in unexpected ways as Cornelia navigates the turbulent 1960s, as well as the turbulence in her family and at school. The discoveries Cornelia makes and the lessons she learns along the way are just as relevant today. This story raises important questions for every reader. What is your Painted Bunting? What is your quest? And how does God speak to you and lead you along the twists and turns of your path? I highly recommend In Search of the Painted Bunting, as it explores the joys and heartbreaks of adolescence. It will inspire you to search for your own elusive Painted Bunting. - Doug Peterson, Author of over 40 VeggieTales books

Backstory, the last chapter, and the answer at last

As Memorial Day approaches, I came on this post and knew I had to share it again. For all of those who have lost loved ones in service to our country, our prayers are with you. Years ago, I sat in a class by a prolific author. She declared, “Back story belongs in the back of the book.” I etched those words in my notebook, and every time I start to give a character’s whole life story in the first chapter, these words sound in my head. But however much we construct our books with the backstory of a character’s motivation in the last chapter, life itself rarely works out that way. But, if writing a novel with my dad as the protagonist, in one circumstance, it’s almost as if a novelist had constructed the plot. My dad, a Korean Conflict air force veteran, was stationed in several places in this country and spent time in England as well. Here while stationed at Chanute Air Force Base, my dad second from left on front row Here with comrades (Dad's in the middle) Of course...

Red clay dust, Harper's Five and Dime, and the Father's Heart

We boomers tend to reminisce, and the other day I found myself remembering how, as a middle schooler, I often walked from school to my dad’s office downtown. I’d show up a bit bedraggled with red clay dust from a playground game of Red Rover or kick ball all over my white anklet socks. My semi-naturally curly hair also probably stuck out in every direction and needed brushing. As the scent of carbon paper floated in the air, Dad wouldn’t bother with my hair, but he’d sit me down and brush off those socks with his hand. For some reason, those dirty socks really bothered him. He’d give me a little change, and I’d head down to Harpers Five and Dime where I’d spend too long at their candy and nut counter trying to decide between the chocolate covered peanuts, cashew nuts, and chocolate stars. It was a big decision, and when I’d made it, I may have asked for a dime's worth of what I wanted, which would be put in a paper sack. I’d pay, take my sack, and return to my dad’s office. The...

If you're looking for me

For those of you who may follow my weekly ponderings, I’m taking a few breaks this summer because Jerry and I are working on a book project together related to his UGA football playing days (Hopefully this will not require marriage counseling. LOL.) We aim to have the book out early fall. I’ll be around on June 16, June 30, be off the month of July, and then resume August 4. Meanwhile, if you go to the web version and click on archives, there’s about 16 years of posts to look through. Blessings and Go Dawgs!!
