Do you love mischievous and sassy characters who are always bantering? Alfeus and Beauregard were an absolute joy to write 😄 Here's an excerpt of their shenanigans: 🐿🦫 'Now, now, Alfy, stay still,' Beauregard said. The chipmunk gave him a long-suffering look. 'There is nothing but mud beneath my foot. If I stay still, Beauregard, I shall sink into the mire and be lost forever.' 'You always did have a touch of the dramatic in you, Alfeus,' the beaver replied with a fond look that was not returned. 'Now, stay still and hand me your paw.' 'Do you listen to yourself?' was the exasperated answer. 'How one is supposed to stay still and move at the same time, I would very much like to know!' All the same, Alfeus held out a paw. It seemed to all that the amusing incident would end right there, until, when Beauregard gave Alfeus' paw a good tug, the chipmunk did not budge. A hint of panic crept into Alfeus' voice. 'Put a little more effort into it, Beauregard! I do not wish to become a part of the scenery.' 🐿🦫 These two really do love each other, I promise 😆 Want to know what happens next?

THE KICKSTARTER IS FUNDED!!!!!!

THE KICKSTARTER IS FUNDED!!!!!!!!!! God is so good and you all are so kind! Thank you, everyone! If the last 20-some days have taught me anything, it's that God can do absolutely anything! What wonders we'll experience when we believe Him for what the world says is impossible 🥰 Chip and the Book of Rose Leaves publishes this July!!

This week, fantasy author Jessica Smith shares about the books that ignited her love of reading, what writing teaches her about God's character, and what inspired her upcoming novel, Evergreen and the Silver Tree!

Do you know what it takes to be a hero? “To be a hero, Tad, you must be a shield for others; you must be the very thing that stands between a people and death and stabs back that death. Sacrifice makes a hero.” Kindle never asked to be a hero. But when an unlikely discovery sweeps her away to an unfamiliar land called Anelthalien, she finds that is exactly what is being asked of her. This is one of my favorite books, and I'm so excited to share my review again in celebration of the sequel's release this summer! Read my full review on the blog (link in bio)
