A Day in the Life

Do you like reading the insights of writers on their daily life, their experiences, and their local contexts?

I sure do. If you are like me, then you might enjoy this new area of my website.

Stories, and the meaning unfolding in their plots are born out of an author’s individual experience and their own setting. Over the years, I’ve written enough content on my setting and experiences that I thought I’d organize them in a way that shares with readers and website visitors why I write the way I do, and the perspectives that inform my style.

There isn’t content yet under all of the categories, but it will soon be coming. Learn more about me as an author by reading the blog posts under the categories of A Day in the Life of a wife and a mother, an author, a woman in ministry, a Dutch girl, a farm girl, an American, and the Dearly Beloved.
