Most biographies don’t allow enough words to share everything about yourself, especially in a guest blog post or something like that. Of the many things I’d love others to know, one is that I enjoy taking nature pictures.

A perfect visual of rural life.Hydrangeas from our yard. I feel like I could reach out and touch them.This is my hometown, Corning, NY, and historic Market Street.

Guest post by Delia Latham The Amish are known for their quiet, unassuming manner. Their love of all things peaceful…and shunning of competitive pastimes. Well. I’m afraid that all flew out the window in the COTT Clash featuring Amish fiction. It was a fight to the finish…. a nose-to-nose race…a no-holds-barred dash to the finish…
Julie’s note: Inspire a Fire is so much more than a nice website full of my favorite authors. I think today’s post captures the heart of what Inspire a Fire is about and their mission to have readers like me be aware and do something. This post is here because Gina Holmes is passionate enough…

Each Sunday I share my own nature picture with a word on God’s love for you. Seeing the sun blaze from a distance reminds me of God’s heart. He burns for us. Although the dreary, cold, desolate circumstances appear in the forefront the truth is God is bigger than all those things. He blazes with…
So our school is positioned for remote learning until May 1, with the potential to keep going until the end of the school year. It’s going well, great in fact, but to hear this isn’t ending was hard. Still is. Add it’s chilly and rainy and generally blah, it’s easy to fall into a funk….
