And the First Review Award Goes too…

September 1, 2019 / Jennwith2ns / Leave a comment

Long-time blog- and real-life-friend, Jeff, currently doing some great work over at the Faith-ing Project. He’s got some books on Amazon, too, so it was really nice of him to take the time to go over to the Favored One page and say this: Also, even longer-time friend, and I guess you could say international, … Continue reading And the First Review Award Goes too…

This is Auntie Shelley. She is one of the most awesome people I know all by herself. She is also reading Favored One, which I feel is pretty awesome, too. Be like Auntie Shelley.

Celebrate with Me!

July 16, 2019July 16, 2019 / Jennwith2ns / 4 Comments

Approximately eleven years ago, my first book, Trees in the Pavement, was released to the world, courtesy of Christian Focus Publications. Today, even though the book itself has been written for almost as long, Favored One hit the websites. This time, though, Notes on Pilgrimage, the new publishing imprint of the Sanctuary at Woodville, is the publisher. … Continue reading Celebrate with Me!

Everyone. Favored One is available for pre-order! It publishes a week from tomorrow. You should probably get on that.

All Choked Up

May 13, 2019 / Jennwith2ns / Leave a comment

You know how sometimes you read a book and it’s so well-written, or the characters are so wonderful, or the story is so moving, you get “something in your eye” or have a little trouble swallowing or something? Is it too far beyond tacky to tell you that I get that way when I read Favored … Continue reading All Choked Up

Starting from the Back

May 9, 2019May 9, 2019 / Jennwith2ns / 1 Comment

Who knew that even publishing for oneself could be such a drawn out process? Probably good that the book release party for Favored One is in September and not any earlier, but we have a cover! And this is the back of it.

What the Readers Thought

May 1, 2019May 1, 2019 / Jennwith2ns / 1 Comment

  The Distinguished Professor of New Testament who gushed so unabashedly on Facebook over Trees in the Pavement in 2008, has written a review of my forthcoming book, Favored One, which you will find, when you buy it and open it up, inside the front cover. There are some other reviews in there which you might … Continue reading What the Readers Thought

What’s in a Name?

February 5, 2014February 3, 2014 / Jennwith2ns / 17 Comments

Wordy Wednesday I would make a terrible spy. There was that time I realised you could probably put explosives in your shoes and get through airport security, before the Shoe Bomber incident, but that’s about the extent of my prowess in that field. I certainly could never manage an alternate persona. If you’re wondering how … Continue reading What’s in a Name?

Avoidance Issues

November 27, 2013November 27, 2013 / Jennwith2ns / 8 Comments

Wordy Wednesday Sometimes I get an email from a friend that is actually kind of personal and detailed and informative, and they ask me questions about me, too, and I think, That was a good email. I want to write a comparable email back, but I just don’t have time right now. Or maybe the questions … Continue reading Avoidance Issues

Bearing Word

August 29, 2013August 29, 2013 / Jennwith2ns / 8 Comments

Theology Thursday When I first had the idea for Favored One, I had just moved to London, and (unrelated to that) the Roman Catholic Church was trying to make some decision about the nature of Mary or something. My friend Fortune’s Gale brought up the topic in an email once, and said something about Mary … Continue reading Bearing Word
