I am so excited to have Sarah Hanks share on the blog today! As soon as I sat down to read her split time novel, A Battle Worth Fighting, she became one of my favorites! Like me, Sarah feels called to write about difficult topics. Not only is she one of our Brave Authors, itContinue reading “Braving Strange Waters – A Guest Post by Author Sarah Hanks”

Wander or Not: A Guest Post By Author R.F. Whong
This month, I am thrilled to introduce you to another of my fellow Brave Authors, Ruth “R. F.” Whong. Earlier this year, I enjoyed her book Prestige of Hearts.

Behind the Scenes: Hans Waldemar Remembers Normandy
This post originally appeared on Snark and Sensibility with Linda Wood Rondeau. This year, Thursday June 6th marks the 80th anniversary of the Allied landings at Normandy. Has it really been eighty years since the turning point of the Second World War? Earlier this spring, I could not shake the feeling that there was somethingContinue reading “Behind the Scenes: Hans Waldemar Remembers Normandy”
Book Reviews and Reflections: Bonhoeffer
I gave this book 5 stars before I even finished it. I honestly don’t know how I can possibly write a review that will give it justice, without the review being so long that you might as well just read the book itself. Here is the succinct review I left on Goodreads: “An incredibly richContinue reading “Book Reviews and Reflections: Bonhoeffer”
“I Finished My Manuscript – Now What?” A Guest Post by Author Jane Daly
I’m especially excited about this post, because I know there are many aspiring writers out there. What’s holding you back? Maybe you feel you have nothing to contribute, or maybe you’re overwhelmed with the idea of actually publishing something. Maybe you have completed your manuscript but you just don’t know what the next step shouldContinue reading ““I Finished My Manuscript – Now What?” A Guest Post by Author Jane Daly”
Book Review and Reflections: The Last Hours in Paris
I have a confession: I have a very, very hard time reading a lot of the World War II fiction out there. I know, the experts say you have to read in your genre, and of course I do, but the majority of my WW2-related reading consists of soldier memoirs and non-fiction. When it comesContinue reading “Book Review and Reflections: The Last Hours in Paris”
Wandering Around Germany: Munich
Has it really taken me this long to post about one of the most popular cities in Germany? Granted, we were there about a month before its famed Oktoberfest, but this city boasts history and culture year ’round. In the four days we spent there in August, 2022, we barely scratched the surface! München, asContinue reading “Wandering Around Germany: Munich”
The Romance of Fun: A Guest Post by Author Jennifer Slattery
Marriage isn’t a topic I have addressed much here on the blog, except perhaps where it relates to my characters, whose hopes for an idyllic union always seem to be interrupted by major historical events. But even without such turmoil, real-life romance can be tough to keep alive. Today, I am excited to welcome author,Continue reading “The Romance of Fun: A Guest Post by Author Jennifer Slattery”
Behind the Scenes in The Samaritan’s Patient: A Guest Post by Author Chevron Ross
Today I’ve invited another Brave Author to share about their latest release. For those who haven’t heard yet, Brave Authors is a group that launched back in January. We are a group of twelve authors who aren’t afraid to tackle tough, and sometimes taboo, subjects while still maintaining a Christian worldview, and the hope isContinue reading “Behind the Scenes in The Samaritan’s Patient: A Guest Post by Author Chevron Ross”
Book Reviews and Reflections: The Outlaws
Ernst von Salomon’s book The Outlaws sat on my TBR for almost two years. It caught my attention as I was still contemplating what to do after I published my debut novel, Sani: The German Medic, and whether or not I was even going to continue writing. I thought it would be great for myContinue reading “Book Reviews and Reflections: The Outlaws”
