Growing roses. Afternoon tea parties. Collecting English bone china cups and saucers. Astronomy. Blogging. Appreciating Godiva chocolates.
I'd like to meet:
Readers, writers, and other interesting people.
If you like this page or my blog or my website or my Love Inspired books, please tell everyone you ever met. Then let me know about it so I can tell you how wonderful you are and how grateful I am.
This is me on a good hair day and on my best behavior. (And I'm sorry to say that both occurences are rare.)

No rules. Just write.
Music:
Here are some faves right off the top of my head:
The Wallflowers, Snow Patrol, Counting Crows, Howie Day, Foo Fighters, Celtic music (especially the slow airs and waltzes), classical (in small doses), opera (in somewhat larger doses, unless it's Wagner's Ring Cycle, in which case, bring it on).
Movies:
My favorite movie is, "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" I bet I've watched that DVD a dozen times. I also like romantic comedies, but once I've seen 'em, I'm done. Except for "Joe vs. the Volcano," I can't think of a single one that I have truly loved. I just always think they could be better, you know?
Television:
I really don't enjoy TV. I despise sitcoms, and dramas leave me cold. I hate TV news programs and "reality" shows. I watch an occasional movie on cable, but I can go a week or longer without even turning on the TV.
Books:
I like nonfiction best. As for novels, I go for the classics. I adore Jane Austen and Shakespeare. I don't read much contemporary fiction except for romance, which is what I write.
Heroes:
I am a follower of Jesus Christ. Okay, I'm not a very good follower. But I'm trying.
