What I Like to Write About

I feel most at home in the creative writing genres, although my pieces range from journalism to poetry.   All of my passions and interests can be found in my writing.  Their presence may not always be obvious, but there is usually some element of my Christian faith, history, or nature in anything I create.  I am studying herbal medicine, and I try to convey nature's healing powers through my compostions. The glory of God's creation inspires and renews me.

My writing often involves a personal connection between the past and present.  We have so many sources of courage from history's examples; I address this theme in my Zone The Explorer -- A Novel.    In this novel-in-progress, a twentieth- century woman is aided by the gift of friendship with legendary explorer Meriwether Lewis.  I write the story to encourage readers to find hope from those who have gone before us. 

My other interests, such as cooking and gardening, appear now and then in my writing.  I am grateful for Helium, where I can refine my skills, get exposure for my writing, and connect with other writers.

With all the blizzards in the news lately, it is hard to believe that spring is on its way; already I am planning my herb and vegetable garden.  This year, I will have a container garden.  Check out the links to my articles on herbs and gardening for some ideas for your own garden.

Stay warm, everybody!

As cold, gray winter aproaches, the need for green signs of life increases.  At home, we are nurturing some new plants which will grow into a Bonsai garden.  My husband ordered some seeds and plants, and has spent the past couple of days lovingly creating a suitable growing area for them in the living room.  Some seeds will need to stay in the refrigerature for several weeks; other tiny trees already have their fall leaves.

My own indoor herb garden will be moved to the credenza in front of the picture window.  They are already enjoying their daily dose of sunshine, which streams in at about 9:00 every morning. 

Plants can provide companionship, just as pets can.  It is daunting to realize that some of these plants may outlive us, but rewarding to know that by nurturing this part of God's

Well, not here in south central Texas, but snow may fall tonight in the hill country.  It should be in the 30's here tonight, with highs in the 40's later in the week.  After my first sweltering summer here, I can say it feels great to be a little too chilly.

I moved my rosemary plant indoors this afternoon, and incorporated it into our Christmas decorations, as you can see from the photo.  Made rosemary tea for my husband, which he thoroughly enjoyed while writing at the computer.

Wel, time to do a few rates here on Helium, and then call it a night.  Peace and blessings to all.
