    24-HOUR SALE: Load up your e-reader with fiction at half-off or more TODAY

    Hey friends! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! I had the privilege of being with family, including my nine tiny nieces and nephews (nine kids ages five and under, if you can imagine that). Good times, made even better by the underlying message of Christmas — that God has chosen to become our…

  • Worlds to Wander: Anne Elisabeth Stengl, Rachel Starr Thomson, and Fantasy Escapes that Inspire

    C.S. Lewis, George MacDonald, J.R.R Tolkien … their names are legendary because they didn’t just give us stories that inspired us, they gave us worlds to wander.

  • Character Spotlight: Flora and Rechab

    Yesterday I posted an intro to two of The Prophet Trilogy’s major characters: the prophets, Kol Abaddon and Alack. But for a lot of readers, it’s the women who are the stars of the series. Faithful reader and Amazon reviewer describes Flora Laurentii Infortunatia (aka “Flora the Unlucky”): Flora, a wealthy woman who befriends Rechab,…

  • Character Spotlight: Kol Abaddon and Alack

That question helped kick off The Prophet Trilogy, and it also inspired the character of Kol Abaddon. His real name has been forgotten. He goes only by Kol…

  • Behind the Prophet Trilogy

    BELOVED, Book 3 in The Prophet Trilogy, releases in just two weeks. As I wrap up a series that has come to mean a lot to me, I wanted to share where it came from. Of course, no book comes from one thing alone. Stories develop when a lot of smaller streams flow together into…

  • The Light

    I wanted to see. Should blindness be borne with religious resignation and patience? Perhaps, but I could not bear it thus. At the very least, as I sometimes thought, it ought eventually to become natural to me—a thing as unremarkable as the night which follows day, which always has, which always will. But it could…

  • Seventh World Trilogy – Writing the King

    The war is over, and the King has gone from our land. Gone with him are the faithful children of men, and now only I am left! I alone remain to sing the Song of the Burning Light over this bloodstained ground. The Earth Brethren are gone; I know not where. It seems they are…
