Storm Warning
By Marilyn Turk As I write this, I’m glancing out my window to see what this year’s first tropical storm or maybe hurricane is bringing to my neighborhood. So far, we’ve gotten only rain, despite the Weather Channel’s dire warnings. … Continue reading

What’s the title of your favorite book? One of my favorites is At Home in Mitford, Jan Karon’s first in Mitford series. A few of her other titles are Somewhere Safe with Someone Good and Come Rain or Come Shine. … Continue reading
Looking for a Western Romance?

Lyn Cote Asks- Do you Read More in the Summer?
Or Less? I mean we hear a lot about “summer beach reads” and I do have friends who take my books on vacation (or they say they do! 🙂 I don’t think I read more or less in any season–about … Continue reading
Commitments, Commitments, Commitments
By Marilyn Turk That feeling is starting to close in on me again. Just when I thought I was handling everything well, more “things” started vying for attention. Do you ever feel that way? Do you feel like you have … Continue reading
Inspiring Things… by Mary Alford
As an author, inspiration comes to me in the most unusual of ways. I never know when an idea will take flight. Maybe it comes from something I’ve seen on TV, or overheard in a conversation. It can even come … Continue reading
Discovering a Book by Marilyn Turk
By Marilyn Turk People often ask me where I get the ideas for my books. Their question implies I’m creative and that I come up with these ideas all by myself. Not true. You see, I’m a historical writer, so … Continue reading
Lyn Cote Asks-Is God an Author?
Lyn Cote Asks-Is God an Author? I think He is. And a very good one. Just think of all the movies made of his “memorable” stories–Samson and Delilah (could a man be that dumb?–evidently–yes), The Ten Commandments (will we ever … Continue reading
Jack of All Trades?
By Marilyn Turk My father used to warn me against being a “Jack of all trades and master of none.” I suppose he said that because I had so many interests and so much trouble making up my mind about … Continue reading

By Marilyn Turk Recently, I began a study on spiritual gifts. The Bible has four chapters that address these gifts—Romans 12, 1 Corinthians 12, Ephesians 4 and 1 Peter 4. The gifts are divided into Motivational, Ministry and Manifestation. Although … Continue reading
Are You Still Writing?–Lyn Cote
Are You Still Writing?–Lyn Cote This is a question I get fairly often from people I don’t know very well. I say, “Yes, that’s my job.” Then people ask, “How many books have you written?” And they act surprised when … Continue reading
