We do have something in common. I also am a Christ-follower, and I’m also fairly liberal. My favorite trope is probably second chance later in life. My 3 kids are grown and I just recently retired. I'm planning on doing a lot more reading!
Yes – I am also a follower of Christ and a lifetime Girl Scout. I have served as a GS leader in two countries: Japan and the USA.
What’s your favorite book/author/trope to read?
My favorite childhood books are Holy Bible (Still a favorite), “Anansi The Spider”, by Gerald McDermott, “Are You There God? It’s Me Margaret.” by Judy Blume, “Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry” by Mildred D. Taylor, and “Dorri and The Blue Witch” by Patricia Coombs
I have too many adult books to list, but my favorite authors are God, Brenda Jackson, Maya Angelou, Langston Hughes, William Shakespeare, Beverly Jenkins, Beverly Cleary, and Barbara Cartland. As an educator I enjoy reading all kinds of books, but my go to is romance.
Do you have goals for 2026?
My goals are to continue grow my businesses, travel, be a better me that I was in 2025, and read 550 books. My goal in 2025 was 500 but I actually read 743.
