About the blog

I still have my blog at manilles.blogspot.com with updates on my book progress, including the latest book (#17) in the Starfire Angels: Forgotten Worlds series.

I've also been sharing some faith-related videos that I come across, but mostly, I've been not blogging as much. I've been stepping away from the online chatter. It's relaxing to step away, but I still enjoy hearing from people and will ans Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Melanie Nilles (?)

“You live, learn, and move on, and there are bumps in the road. Sometimes they seem like we're diving off cliffs without wings. But at least if we try to fly, we have a chance that maybe we can.”
― Melanie Nilles, Broken Wings

“Yuck. In the dark of her room, she threw back her wet sheet and comforter and picked off her brown hair sticking to her neck and shoulders. Much better. The cold March night made her shiver, but after dreaming of fire and waking up soaked in sweat, she welcomed the cold. She'd welcome a hot shower in the morning even more.”
― Melanie Nilles, Starfire Angels

Thanks for friending me, ladies! Sorry I didn't see your comments sooner. I don't often visit this page. A poor excuse, but honest. I am very grateful.
