Follow Your Purpose

Disclosure: I received product via FlyBy Promotions in exchange for an honest review. This post may contain affiliate links. You can view my full disclosure here. From captivity to purpose When given the opportunity to read the book Captive by Ashley Smith, I was intrigued. The story of a hostage situation in which the hostage escaped alive sounded exciting. As the description read, Captive is "based on a miraculous true story that drew the attention of the entire nation, is a thrilling drama about the spiritual collision of two broken lives. When Brian Nichols - on the run as the…

Hope for Tomorrow. Live for Today.

I wish I could have written this weekend, but I take the weekends off (though truly I wouldn't mind working on the weekends, because I love this job). Something happened this weekend, and I'm not sure what it was that turned around, but it's like a switch went off in my brain that immediately allowed creative energy to surge through me.  Something I lost a long time ago returned.  I'm afraid that maybe it's just a flicker but long for it to remain.

Reading List Review: September 2015

I was so excited to get so much reading done this month!  Four of the books I finished were part of my research for my upcoming book, and two of them I did for book reviews.  You can find my review of Through a Man's Eyes by clicking here.  As of right now, I only have one more research book to finish before I can dive back into writing, and I should be finishing that book this week.  Don't be too sad, but my reading may be down next month since my focus will be on writing this month.  Anyway, without…
