Every writer needs a place to escape the chaos of deadlines, tangled plots, and characters who refuse to behave.
My "place" happens to be a cozy imaginary porch shared with two rather unusual companions: Haven, my endlessly patient brainstorm partner and all-round creative genius; and Jimmy, a coffee-loving, marshmallow-hoarding gentleman who claims to know absolutely nothing about anything suspicious.
I don't believe him for a minute.
These two have become part of my writing adventures, offering encouragement, laughter, occasional wisdom, and enough mischief to keep things interesting.
So, beginning this month, I'm inviting you to pull up a rocking chair and join us for a little feature called From the Porch. We'll talk books, writing, life, faith, and whatever else happens to wander up the porch steps.
And here's our first question for you: If you joined us on the porch, what would you bring to share? Coffee? Cookies? Chocolate? Perhaps a suspiciously large bag of marshmallows? Or something totally unexpected and impossible to guess?
Tell us in the comments. Just don't leave your marshmallows unattended near Jimmy's chair.
You've been warned. 😉
