When I was in third grade, I watched a movie about Mary Queen of Scots and Lady Jane Grey. To this day, I remember the final scene and the feeling of numbness and disbelief over the bloodshed that stuck with me for days. . . As you can see, I’m […]
Full of suspense, Killer Harvest deals with a single mother, a biologist in Central California, who is thrust into a world of intrigue and terrorists. Sassa was nicknamed Sassy Sassa by her boss, and fittingly so. Her failed marriage had taught her the importance of standing up for herself and […]
Hands of Grace is a lovely story, full of hope and redemption. Rita shows such a beautiful example of grace to her mother and didn’t even seem to realize it. The care she gave her and her patience were very admirable. Caring for a loved one full time, especially when […]
