I have been toying with the idea of rewriting my book Sani: The German Medic for a few years. With the book’s FIFTH birthday coming up, I thought NOW was a GREAT time. There is some debate among authors over whether or not it’s worth it to go back and revise/rewrite back-listed books. Many ofContinue reading “Rewriting Sani: Part I”

2025 Wrap-Up and What’s to Come
I know not everyone had a great 2025. For my family, it has had its share of ups and downs. Overall, though, if I had to relive it, I would. I’ve had some terrible years and this was not one of them. I don’t always have a “word of the year,” but in 2025, IContinue reading “2025 Wrap-Up and What’s to Come”
Writing Update: A Simple Project Part III
This will be my third update on A Simple Project, and likely the last for a while. At the beginning of October, I wrote THE END of the story, knowing that the book would be shelved for now, to rest and be revisited at a later date. A fellow member of Christian Mommy Writers andContinue reading “Writing Update: A Simple Project Part III”
A Simple Project Part II
I’m posting this today because I had another post scheduled but my guest came up with a BRILLIANT idea that needs more time. So instead, an update on my Simple Project.

Sometimes, youContinue reading “A Simple Project Part I”
Writing Update: “Why a Pen Name?”
Happy New Year! If you follow me on social media, you may have noticed that I am now using the name “Aubrey Reiss Taylor.” This is something I’ve been toying with since I began writing and I finally decided to go through with it. There are three major reasons for these changes. I WRITE GERMAN-PERSPECTIVEContinue reading “Writing Update: “Why a Pen Name?””
Characters Part 5: Jakob Schmidt
I’ve said it before: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for the bad boys. I have a genuine hope that there’s good in them and that it will prevail in the end, or that they’ll have a total redemption experience and use their strengths for good. In light of that, I guessContinue reading “Characters Part 5: Jakob Schmidt”
New Release, Germany Trip, What’s Next?
It’s been a while… I haven’t posted anything new on the blog since May, but since we’re halfway through the year it’s about time for a general update. In May and June I did a lot of guest posting with other authors, and I’ve included links to some of those posts at the bottom. There’sContinue reading “New Release, Germany Trip, What’s Next?”

This post explains my personal feelings about topics addressed in my upcoming release, The Christmas We Both Needed. If you have followed me or supported my work in the last two years, I hope you will give it a read.
