A picture is worth a thousand words, which is probably why people love to look at pictures. But... I'm an AUTHOR!!!  I can't just show pictures. It's not in me to not explain. So...here goes my best attempt at showing pictures.

Or, for something different, here's a video of our tight-rope walking lizard named Lime , who is sadly now in that big lizard habitat in the sky. We miss her dearly, and we like to remember her antics.

I'd love to share some of  the pictures of the pictures I took at the ACFW Conference in Nashville in September 2005. It was the trip of a lifetime in so many ways!

And more photos for animal lovers - I got a new puppy! Her name is Heidi and she's the cutest little thing in the world. However on the sad side of this, my old dog is now gone, she lived to just over 15 years, she had a long and happy life. But I still have 2 dogs, just one big one and one small one. Click here to see Heidi, the Miniature Schnauzer in action!

And here is my ever-expanding gallery collection. There might be a few unexpected surprises behind some of these shots.

The morning from my back yard. Saying goodbye. Got a cell phone?.
This is my bass guitar. I play it in church. This is where I go to walk my dogs. Meet my lizard. His name is Spot. Here is Bowser the puppy, all grown up. I think I want to be a bear.
This is my new puppy. I think he's cute as a button. Here are some of my Heartsong buddies. These are my slippers. The landscape around Winthrop WA. Introducing my Sweetie.
This is my old dog. Yes, she really is on the roof
of my house.
This is where I write. The mess helps the creative process. See the view from my back deck. It doesn't always
rain here.
Like any parent, I am tremendously proud
of my 3 boys.
This is my piano. It always is piled with books
and papers.

I've been interviewed by Painted Rock. I've copied and pasted it for your convenience rather than making everyone search through Painted Rock's website. So, if you want to read it, then click here to read the interview. Please keep in mind that this was done a few years ago, when I only had one book on the shelves. How time has flown!
