"The Reflective Writer"

WELCOME.

I’m referred to as “The Reflective Writer,” because I strive to write thematic essays and contemporary Christian fiction to encourage you to reflect on the most meaningful moments in life—before they slip by.

My logo, a lighthouse, symbolizes the essence of my writing--shedding light--to help you “see”—and feel—the things that matter most. And here you can learn more about my NEW book, The Desert Between Us, a “love-after-loss, victory-over-grief” novel endorsed by Richard Paul Evans, #1 New York Times bestselling author. 

Under the NONFICTION tab you can view my essays featured in several Chicken Soup for the Soul books. 

Be sure to check out my BLOG tab and sign up for my FREE monthly newsletter about slowing down your life to live more reflectively. It's called, PAUSE MORE. RUSH LESS.
