The Annual Wrinkle Count

Once again, it’s January 7. It seems like the days are flying by. As usual, I’m celebrating my 29th birthday. This year, my wish doesn’t involve my books. (I will still add them below, just in case some would like to share them.) But I would like to ask you a favor: Would you please send a few prayers and keep me in your thoughts today? I am having an eye surgery. It’s supposed to be a routine…

The Council of Twelve A - Z / S for Santanael

When it comes to writing, with six published books and the seventh in the series in line, I sometimes feel a little bit like I need to keep things in my books a secret, fearfully protecting my stories because I could give away too much to the ones who haven’t read ‘The Council of Twelve’ series yet. But aren’t the background stories, the little details ‘behind the scenes’ the interesting part of…

I wrote about the writer’s health problems earlier in ‘Writer’s Treasure Chest’ and decided to spread the word with Ari in the ‘Merry Writer Podcast’ interview.

With deepest sadness we're saying goodbye. Former President Jimmy Carter passed away, 100 years old in his home in Georgia, surrounded by his family.

He served as the 39th President of the United States from 1977 to 1981. He was awarded the 2002 Nobel Peace Prize for work to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts, to advance democracy and human rights, and to promote economic and social development.

R.I.P. President J. Carter.

A Divine Intervention - The Problem With The Nightgown (Santanael's Past)

One day, Santanael was asked to watch the new Guardian Angels. He was proud on one side but phenomenally sad on the other, swimming in his misery pond of unshed tears. Raphael, however, stuck to his guns, and finally, Santanael took over the task. He was generally helpful and enthusiastic about trying new things. But lately, he has felt discouraged, sad, and empty. He suspected that might have…

Merry Christmas 2024

If I remember correctly, last year, I felt the need to justify my ‘Holiday Wishes’ here on Writer’s Treasure Chest. I wanted to explain why the ‘Merry Christmas’ instead of the ‘Happy Holiday’… This year, it’s 2024, and I decided I don’t need to explain or apologize for why, and I darn sure can wish anyone ‘Merry Christmas’ as often as I please. Writer’s Treasure Chest is gaining more followers,…
