I'd like to extend a cordial "thank-you" for visiting my website. Whether you're here to preview the works I've been blessed to write, download a short story for your class, get writing tips, contact me for a speaking engagement, or simply check me out, I'm glad you stopped by. Nothing happens by chance, and I consider it an honor to welcome you to this showcase of the gifts and purpose for my very existence. My prayer for you is that you will feel His sincere love and concern for you in the work that He does through me despite my imperfections and my self because the real truth of the matter is: it's not about you or me. It's about God, His loving son Jesus Christ, and the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. I hope that you'll find something to laugh about, something to think about, and something to pray about as you browse this site.
