Brenda Minton lives, procrastinates, writes, drinks coffee, raises her kids and is wife to her husband, in the Ozarks.

Okay, now to first person because a third person bio sounds like someone else wrote it about me, and is just license to create flowery prose about myself.

I grew up on a farm in the Ozarks. It was long ago and far away, in a land before cable TV, video games and the internet. To pass the time we read books, watched (gasp) network TV that rarely came in clear, and had friends over on weekends to play music on the front porch, or card games in the dining room.

Another Excuse to Read

Another blog! I just realized today, thanks to the good folks at goodreads, that I can have a blog here!

“... nothing surprises God. You have to remember, He knew what was ahead of you, and He has a plan to help you deal with it.”
Brenda Minton, The Cowboy Next Door

“Her years in Gibson started a healing process. It began with faith, and forgiving. But healing didn't mean forgetting.

But maybe forgetting wasn't necessary. The memories of her childhood provided a backdrop, a place to begin the changes that would make life better. She knew who she didn't want to be.”
Brenda Minton, The Cowboy Next Door

“She's strong," he told his mom. "She'll be fine."

"Even strong people need help." Wilma said it with soft but firm tones that he couldn't argue with.”
Brenda Minton, The Cowboy Next Door

“Failure is only the opportunity more intelligently to begin again.”
Henry Ford
