It's Christmas in July...
NEWS & UPDATES!
Just sharing the news that I’ve had some writing published in two more books!
And the fun thing is: they both arrived at my house within 24 hours of each other! :)
If you’re interested, here are the deets below:
*Forgive the pics below, it was hot and humid and I’m not very practiced at selfies!
**Author note: I don’t receive a commission on these books, but I encourage supporting these wonderful publishers of faith-based stories and books—Guideposts and Calla Press Publishing LLC — whom I highly recommend!
1. Beloved by His Faithful
The purple one (Beloved by His Faithful) is part of a Guideposts series called “God’s Constant Presence”, Volume 10.
I grew up reading Guideposts; my mom would leave them in the bathroom for us kids to read! Guideposts’ stories are always inspiring and full of hope, so this new book would make a wonderful Christmas gift (if you’re thinking that far ahead)!
I have two stories in this book, both written from my online writing class—Leslie Leyland Fields’ Memoir Masterclass—if you’re interested in learning to write your stories, check it out! (And if you decide to join, use this link to receive half off):

This new book is available to order today on Guideposts’ website, or Amazon after September 9th. (OR…if you’re local and would like a copy a little cheaper, let me know and I can include you in my order :).)
2. Living in Wonder
The white book with the beautiful cover is Calla Press’ 2025 Spring Journal, Living in Wonder.
One of my favorite poems called Barefoot is in this volume. Another favorite poem is my friend Lindsey Gallant’s Seeds poem. And so many more Substack authors in this journal, including these few whom I’m familiar with:
If you like poetry and thoughtful short stories and essays regarding “living in the wonder” of God’s creation, this book is for you!
Living in Wonder is available through the Calla Press Publishing LLC website shopping tab.
Well…
That’s it for last week’s news! More on this week is coming soon…until then, have a lovely mid-summer day!!







Amazing, Jen!! So thrilled for you! I’m going to get these! ❤️
