edit data

Rachel began weaving tales well before she could actually write. Those early stories included danger and mystery, sensational heroes, and their villainous counterparts. Sometimes the hero had to time warp through a hole in her backyard to save the damsel in distress, and sometimes he only had to outwit the villain with a clever plan.

When she’s not riveting readers with the challenges and spiritual growth of her characters’ lives, she can be found poolside with her husband, daughter, a cool cat, and a snuggly and loyal dog. She enjoys football (once upon a time, her spiral was pretty decent), reading, creating graphics, being involved at church, spending time with family and friends, and exploring the mysteries of the unseen world.

THINGS WE NEVER SAY: PART ONE

I’m not a fan of New Year’s resolutions. In theory, they are fantastic. In reality, they are a lot of pressure. We all want to look great, feel great, accomplish something, quit something, or start something.

And then we remember it’s work. All of it.

And fourteen days into January—if we’re lucky—the new exercise equipment is abandoned. The diets have been ditched. Maybe we are still doing that thin
