Favorite place to read
In bed beneath my down duvet, propped up on goose-feather pillows, and ensconced in crisp, white, Egyptian cotton sheets of high thread count--with a chocolate snack to nibble.
Favorite quote or Bible verse
2 Timothy 2:15 . . . rightly dividing the Word of truth.
Favorite character you’ve created
Mary Grace (renamed Aglaia after a Greek goddess), who ran from her rural background searching for herself (and love) in the arts. Or maybe Ebenezer MacAdam, the old Scottish sage full of truth. No, I take that back--better Libby Walker, who’s been walking away for all her life and finally finds her way home. That said, my current antagonist, Sybil Tansey, travels from one exotic international “sacred place” to the next for yet another thrill--gotta love the misplaced verve.
