You’ve come to the right place if you want to find out why I’ve set up this blog. I am a Baby Boomer who loves to write. Do you? Still a learner, I’ve been writing nonfiction since forever and fiction since 2003. I’m hoping to get my novel published in the near future, maybe even this decade. Along the way, I’m using this blog not only to share what I’m discovering about writing a book, but also to connect with you. Thanks in advance for taking the time to read and/or submit feedback!
I live with my husband in the Pacific Northwest of the USA and enjoy connecting with people all over the world, in person and online.
Life is about hope. “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him.” -John 3:16-17
Thank you for reading!

Thanks, Marc! Appreciate your support.
How exciting to bring your personal writing skills to us on a daily basis in this modern format. I’m looking forward to your blogs!
Thanks, Nell! I’m hoping to write most work days.
What was I thinking?! What I actually hope to do, Nell, is to blog once a week, which is probably all I can handle–and more–for now.
Shalom, my friend!
If you get anywhere near Temple, TX, we have two guest rooms! And it would be wonderful to see you again and talk more! God bless you; I think this blog will be a blessing, too.
Thanks, Jean! I appreciate your invitation (have never yet been to TX) and your kind words.
We enjoyed reading your blog. Nicely done.
Thanks for the comment, Bill and Cora! I appreciate the encouragement.
I’m looking forward to following your thoughts!
I bet you’re an encourager, Cinnamon! Cheers!
You are truly a blessing to our generation.. I would be looking out for more on this Blog…I am in the military serving in afghanistan
That’s so nice of you to say, Parker. My father, brother, and husband served in the military. Thank you very much for your service to our country, and may the Lord keep you safe!
Dear Mrs.Nill,
I would like to thank you for sending my son Jack a Post card to his school. When I was reading his card you mentioned your friend Cindy asking you to send him a card. He has received so many post cards.Some from people we have asked and some by word of mouth. I was just wondering who Cindy is and how she knows Jack. Thank you so much for taking the time to send him a post card. You are the only one who has sent one from Washington out of the whole class. This project is truly amazing.
Thank you again Ellen
You’re welcome, Ellen! It was fun to send, knowing it was for a class project. Thanks for letting me know he received it! (I’ll email you with the answers to your questions.)

Nice to meet you, too, Helen, Thanks for reading my blog, and thanks for including Nick’s web site. Please let me know when you get your blog set up. I’ll be keeping my eyes peeled for you at UPC!
Your stories are just what i needed to bring another smile to my face today! Thanks, Sis!
You’ve told anecdotes that made me smile, too, Doug. (That’s what kids are for, right?) Thanks for reading my blog and commenting!
