Walk with Jesus today - UPDATE!

I am in need of a few more reviewers for either the audio, eBook, or paperback copy of I Walked with Jesus. My goal is to have at least 10 reviews on Amazon (more would be great!) before the second book in the series comes out in mid-September. 

That means I need your help. Based on the reviews I've received thus far, you won't be disappointed in this book whatever way you get it. If you want the paperback, just send me a note here of your interest. and I'll mail you a copy. Anything else comes with a free audio code or an eBook gift directly from me!

What do you know of the woman at the well? What led her to the well that day - the exact day Jesus would be there? What of the lepers, the blind man, the woman who dried Jesus' feet with her hair? What of the Centurion who said at the cross, "Surely this was the Son of God”? Stories of Jesus. You have heard them since you were young. But what about the parts that you’ve never heard?

The stories that need to be told? The stories you need to hear?

5.0 out of 5 stars We NEED more books like this!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 28, 2022

We absolutely need more books like this! "I Walked with Jesus" takes moments from the gospels—encounters with Jesus, and portrays them in a novel-like narrative. If you're familiar with the TV series,
"The Chosen," this book reminds me of that show because it portrays beautifully and emotionally the people with whom Jesus came in contact.

Reading the stories spelled out like a novel brings them to life, especially for avid readers. I think there's potential to never read the scriptures the same, because of the powerful portrayals in the book.

Kathryn's got it right! I'll be watching for more of her work!

I am in need of more reviews! Book 2 in the series is coming out soon! Please let me know if you'd like to review the audio version of the book. I have a free code for you!

Summer Unleashed

UPDATE: I have just finished the second draft of Charmed - I'm Sure. It turned out a little differently than I expected, but I like it. It's sort of a picture book for pre-teens. Is such a thing out there? Maybe it's a short story. In just a few minutes I'll post it on my blog here - at least a portion of it - and then I'll ask for takers on what you think the genre is.

Here is the direct link in case you found this post first.

This is my second time sitting in front of this screen today.

The first time, I wasn't sure what I wanted to write. I had multiple reasons why I didn't want to and no ideas.

All it took was a lunch break and time to think over what mattered to me.

Here are some thoughts:

I want to begin a new writing project.

A few years ago - I'm not even sure when the idea came - I was doing an interview for a blog and an idea for a picture book came to me. Fortunately, I wrote all of the ideas down, unfortunately, I lost these ideas until, just last week, I found some time and, in cleaning out my files, I found them again.

I'm not going to tell you a lot about the book other than to say that having a charmed life is not really what any of us want even if we think we do. 

Life isn't about perfection, it's about dirt and muck under our fingernails. It's about secrets that aren't kept and people that don't really like you. It's about people who want to serve but think too highly of themselves. It's about work. It's about doing what you don't like to do and aching muscles that tell you how old you're really getting.

Next, I want to spend some time marketing. I'm not really sure as I'm typing this what sort of marketing I'm going to do, but I'm going to do something, and I'd like that something to be original, especially since I have two books that should be ready for publishing by the end of this year. [I'm giving myself plenty of time because both of these books were supposed to be ready this spring. :)]

I want to do a lot of reading this summer. I want to pay attention to how authors write, how they put words together, and how they get you to feel the story behind the words. 

Do you have some writing goals for this summer? I would love to hear them.

Kathryn

Ready?

 It doesn't take much for me to begin thinking about summer.

Just get rid of the snow and replace it with the sun in one week!

We had our annual Easter get-together. This year we had 14 of us, Jesus (I always take down a picture of Christ and set it in a chair) both grandmothers, my daughter Tiffanie and her family, my daughter Bethany and her family, and Aimee and her family via Zoom in Texas. Of course, we couldn't send the excellent food my husband cooked through the computer screen, but we did manage to have a spiritual feast reading various scriptures about Christ from the prophets.

Jacob, as always, didn't want to eat much but was anxious to get to the "fun" part. Finding eggs on the Easter egg hunt. There were plenty!

I Hope your Easter was just what you wanted it to be this year. 

All my love,

Kathryn
