I pretty much have my own style, but my novel, The Faeren Lands, might remind you of CS Lewis...another favorite of mine. I love to write suspence/thriller/action romance.

Married with 12 children (I had 14- 7 boys, 7 girls, but lost a son and a daughter at birth) and 10 grandchildren. If you want to know more, please visit my website and read "Life in General~Mine in Particular". My disastrous past inspired my very first novel, The Faeren Lands, an odd ball misfit that seems to defy any genre. Kind of like the story of my life!! ;)
As a believer, my writings focus on the Lord, and span the list from poetry to short stories, novels, children's stories, essays and personal blogs.
I have two finished novels waiting for publication: a romantic suspense set in Israel. The other one combines allegory, fantasy and memoir into a compelling story of God's amazing Love. I have three novels in various stages of progress. One of them is a sequel to my Israel novel.
Last year, I sent in a collection of "moments" I titled, SIGH, to the Writer's Digest 2008 Short Story contest. My work received an honorable mention and placed 17th out of 100 in the inspirational category. There were over 17,000 entries altogether.
Three of my personal stories were published in WOMEN OF PASSIONS, an anthology, 2008
SHAVINGS, a short story about Jesus preparing my mansion, won the title, Best of the Best, for 2007-2008 on Faithwriters.com
In 2003, my short story, ARCELIA, won first place in an online children's short story contest, and I have poetry featured on several websites and in anthologies.
It is the desire of my heart is to write for the edification of the body of Christ and to glorify the One who has so graciously given me a new life. He is my inspiration!

Rarely does one get a second chance at life. I'm not referring to anything spiritual; I mean real life. Real flesh, blood and bone life. But after what happened to me last Saturday down in my secluded garden, I now know what a new lease on life means...
