This Christmas, instead of turning on the Roku to find a Christmas movie, why not listen to an audio drama by candlelight? Imagine this: You brew a cup of coffee, grab the leftover bag of Christmas cookies, turn off the lights and light a candle or two, and snuggle down in a blanket while you listen to Doctor Who…
Christmas is only a day away. Ready or not, the presents should be wrapped, the seventh trip to the grocery store completed, and the house cleaned (mostly). Snow for Christmas? Well, for many of us, that’s an understatement.
Hopefully the stress of the season doesn’t get you too down. With all of the effort to make the season perfect, we can often overlook the need to pause and reflect on what truly matters. We’ve all heard it before, that Christmas should be a time for rest, quality time with family, and a reflection of what the Creator God did for his people…
Bring on the turkey! I’m ready for a full day of eating all the fixin’s, and then groaning about it later. Hey, there’s antacid for that, right? This month I decided to participate in NaNoWriMo. That is, National Novel Writing Month. Of course my wife Stacy talked me into it, and upon much protest, I […]
Tales from the Cave The Shadow of Ranger Devore, Part 4 The wind picked up outside the little cabin. The two-day torrential downpour had only quit hours ago, but now it was looking like another storm was gearing up for the Sierra Nevadas. Storms of this magnitude weren’t typical in the summer months in Yosemite, […]
My fingers are on the keyboard, but they aren’t moving. No tapping is heard from the keys. There are other things on my mind than writing. What things you ask? Well, I’ll tell you. It seems–this world has gone crazy. Uncertainty and fear are at all-time highs on the crazy-meter, and it appears some people […]
Okay, I have to admit, I love Fall the best. Call me basic, but I can literally eat anything made out of pumpkin. Pumpkin doughnuts, pumpkin pie, pumpkin pancakes… And of course, pumpkin spice lattes. My favorite thing about Fall, however, is when the cooler weather starts to move in. Sure, that means less time […]
Tales from the Cave The Shadow of Ranger Devore, Part 2 Sarah watched Ranger Devore disappear past the bleary yellow-washed light of the austere motel. There was a swagger to his walk, even in the pouring rain. The pulling on the driver’s side door handle startled her. “Sarah, unlock the door!” Josh called through the […]
Tales from the Cave The Shadow of Ranger Devore, Part 1 Every year visitors and hikers are killed or go missing in the national parks. Several serial murders have been carried out over the decades in many of them. Still, hundreds of thousands of visitors flock to the parks every year to hike and enjoy […]
We are back in the bus again. Finally! After a whirlwind summer, including the amazing 2022 Realm Makers conference in New Jersey, we are settling back into a work routine. And, there is plenty to do. Not only do I plan (keyword “plan”) to have all three Demon Tide books written yet this year, we […]
Let’s talk about this past month… So aside from the fact that I totally skipped out on June’s update and newsletter, I was able to accomplish much the past several weeks. Not only were Stacy and I able to design, edit, and publish the first ever Creative Companion Workbook, The Watcher Key Light Training Manual, […]
