Film Reviews and Reflections: The Captain
I know I don’t take enough time to watch movies, not even the movies I need to watch. Case in point: this film was on my list for almost three years! As the poster above states, this film is “darkly evocative.” It is even filmed in black and white, giving it the feel of film…
“I Finished My Manuscript – Now What?” A Guest Post by Author Jane Daly
I’m especially excited about this post, because I know there are many aspiring writers out there. What’s holding you back? Maybe you feel you have nothing to contribute, or maybe you’re overwhelmed with the idea of actually publishing something. Maybe you have completed your manuscript but you just don’t know what the next step should…
Book Review and Reflections: The Last Hours in Paris
I have a confession: I have a very, very hard time reading a lot of the World War II fiction out there. I know, the experts say you have to read in your genre, and of course I do, but the majority of my WW2-related reading consists of soldier memoirs and non-fiction. When it comes…
Wandering Around Germany: Munich
Has it really taken me this long to post about one of the most popular cities in Germany? Granted, we were there about a month before its famed Oktoberfest, but this city boasts history and culture year ’round. In the four days we spent there in August, 2022, we barely scratched the surface! München, as…
The Romance of Fun: A Guest Post by Author Jennifer Slattery
Marriage isn’t a topic I have addressed much here on the blog, except perhaps where it relates to my characters, whose hopes for an idyllic union always seem to be interrupted by major historical events. But even without such turmoil, real-life romance can be tough to keep alive. Today, I am excited to welcome author,…

Book Reviews and Reflections: The Outlaws
Ernst von Salomon’s book The Outlaws sat on my TBR for almost two years. It caught my attention as I was still contemplating what to do after I published my debut novel, Sani: The German Medic, and whether or not I was even going to continue writing. I thought it would be great for my…
Living History Brings the Past and Present to Life: A Guest Post by Diana Leagh Matthews
One of my goals for the new year is to feature more guest posts along with my own here on the blog. Today, the multi-talented Diana Leagh Matthews shares about something that is high on my list of things to do “someday”: Historical Reenacting! From a young age, I’ve always been intrigued by history and…

He is part of the newly-launched, collaborative effort Brave Authors, a group of twelve fiction writers who have taken on the challenge of writing about tough subjects through a Christian worldview. According to his website, Brian’s favorite superheroes are Batman and The Punisher, but…
Wandering Around Germany: Hamburg
Recently, a post on X asked whether or not Hamburg lives up to its reputation. It raised quite a debate! Whether or not Germany’s “Gateway to the world” lives up to the hype, we had a LOT of fun! Our time there was filled with spontaneity, and we ended up staying longer than we planned.…
