During one long, difficult winter when I was at my lowest, I remember praying to God and asking Him to give me a life-story or something in my life that could be a testament to His glory. I did not think things could get much worse at that point, as I was jobless and feeling pretty beat up by the world- physically, spiritually, and mentally. Eventually, I did find a job that I actually liked, and I moved on with life, but still remember that prayer, and I kept it in my back pocket, wondering, and waiting, and trying to do something bigger and better.  As a child, I would…

So sorry! I just completed a blog post and WordPress delivered it to subscribers who are signed up to receive blog updates without saving a few changes that I made! I didn't realize it had done that and apologize for the suspicious looking notification anonymously titled "Title". *hides face* Yes, that was me. No, I am not a scammer. Blessings and cheers, -Liz

Hi all! It's been a minute, hasn't it? How has life been treating you? I know it has been rough. There is fear all around us, and it is hard to fight. But don't let it best you, friend. Look UP, don't look down, because we have hope. Our King is fighting for us. I don't have a writing update at this time, but you can always follow me on Facebook or Instagram for little updates, or sign up for my newsletter for special inside peeks *flips sunglasses down*. The reason I decided to pop in for a blog post is because there's been a flurry of fun book releases…

I was tagged by Jenelle Schmidt to do this tag. Hers was so fun, and I loved getting to know this brilliant, sweet lady! I haven’t done anything like this in years (think back to those survey tags from the days of just-email). Yes, I am kind of old school to remember that! I also did want to let you know, since there has been a bit of confusion over Newsletter subscription vs. blog subscription: if you are seeing this blog post in your email and thought you were signing up for the Newsletter, this is not the Newsletter. 🙂 This is the blog post, and you have subscribed to…

Woohoo! Two cover reveals this week! What a blast. If you missed my social media posts, Claire M. Banschbach has finally shared with the world the shining new cover for her book baby, Oath of the Outcast. I am really, really exited that this book will be released to the world at the Realm Maker’s Conference, in July 2019! It will release from Crosshair Press on July 23, 2019, but copies can be obtained early on the 19th if you are attending the Realm Maker’s Conference. (Details in the Crosshair Press link.) The cover designer is Magpie Designs. Just look at it. <3 A lost brother. An unwilling outlaw. A rising enemy. An…

Winter is officially over! I started out burning through books… and then quickly burnt out. I’ve been learning a lot about social media and platforming, and I think the stress of it got to me again. I needed to be reminded that God is in control, and I don’t need to worry about it! Just keep learning, keep trusting, and He will take care of the rest. I ended up backing off for a week from a lot of writing things, taking the time to Listen, Be still, and refocus. It was good to remind myself why I am doing this, and that it’s about obeying His calling and glorifying…

EEP! In a post already scheduled for later this month, I will share that I finally read The Electrical Menagerie by the incomparable Mollie E. Reeder (along with my mini review because reviews are not my thing). But I have to tell you, I loved it. It was really something special. Dear friendships, great adventure, comical dialogue and surprising twists await you in this book. Plus, Mollie’s prose is so capturing! Although it is already out and available on Amazon, Mollie has decided to give it a sparkling new cover and I think it is wonderful. Just look at this GIF. My eyes are glowing. Can you see, there are…
