I think it’s safe to say that characters are my favorite part of stories. Whether I’m writing or reading them.

Mark Twain is good at making the truth humorous.… Read More Huckleberry Finn Quote

I had a lot of fun writing this story and just love the characterization I got into my main character here. Hopefully there’ll be more soon, so stay tuned!… Read More A Prisoner’s Escape
Yes! I wasn’t sure if I was going to be able to get this video on before passover was over. So, Yay for that! 🙂 Another awesome Maccabeats video for the holiday. This is REALLY creative what they did with this. So, the traditional Dayenu tune is a very neutral, easy melody. Easy to mess… Read More Who says “Dayenu” has to be repetitive?
Hi, everyone! This is another Psalm I really like, so, thought I’d share that today. 🙂 Psalm 146, KJV [1] Praise ye the Lord . Praise the Lord , O my soul. [2] While I live will I praise the Lord : I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being. [3]… Read More Psalm 146
