If you have followed the story behind Knee Deep; A 9-month Whirlpool of Handwritten Letters to the Creator, you’ll know this is my most courageous work to publish. I included a Knee Deep excerpt in May and was somewhat relieved when I found out that instead of the anticipated May release, Knee Deep will be…
I’ve written FROG Blogs as lessons from a lily pad image. Yesterday I discovered literal frogs. I walked a lake trail to a tranquil spot to write. I stopped at a sitting space that turned out to be different than my anticipated quiet. I became aware of a loud siren that sounded like an ambulance….
Knee Deep: A 9-Month Whirlpool of Letters to the Creator will publish this month! In the book, I write a disclaimer about these handwritten letters to my Creator being freely written. The words flow without Grammerly focus or edit. Sometimes these letters are a few sentences, sometimes they’re short rambles. All letters are authentic, told…
May Day! This month, Knee Deep: A Nine-Month Whirlpool of Handwritten Letters to the Creator will be published. It’s my most courageous and vulnerable writing so far. I’ll post store links when the book becomes available. Until then, I practice fervent peace! Grateful for your support on the lily pad of life, Christina

It’s been years since I found this and wish the source had credited its author. His or her literary gift reminds me that words written (or spoken) today impact tomorrow…
I announce my 2021 Word of the Year! ABUNDANCE. Last year, I chose DECIPHER to practice inner growth. The decipher premise stemmed from a need to check motive: my use of time, personal connections, spending and saving money, energy output etc. What motive manifested my habits? This year’s word is ABUNDANCE. I’m challenging myself to…
I’m working on next week’s FROG blog about my 2021 Word of the Year to Practice: Abundance. The next 3 books in the FROG Blog series are in various pieces, with intent to publish them this year: Knee Deep, Tadpoles and Poetry Pod. I ask for your help in one of my challenges this year!…
Joyful Christmas to all! Believing in new birth for your upcoming days and year! In reading Psalms 15, I believe if we continually responded this way, our world would look much different. (Even when I practice any one of the guidelines from Ps. 15:2-5 that becomes my daily challenge)! 1 LORD, who may dwell in your…
