Welcome to Bluesky. If you're a writer, don't forget to TELL US ALL ABOUT YOUR BOOK!
GHOST PARISH Sister Clara Marie is about to make it to the big time, that is, canonization by the Catholic Church, but an AI start-up seems to be infected with her image and now she’s showing up in all their media, from Victorian gardens to city skylines, jeopardizing her shot at Heaven’s holiest.
I can't believe I'm finally saying this, but the second draft of my suburban fantasy novel GHOST ICON is finished! I've got some style and continuity editing to do, I know, but all the big pieces are there!

I have seen so many edgy posts about Gnostic Christianity this week and I am just OVER IT. Gnosticism wasn't feminist. It wasn't liberatory. Their belief that the body is wicked heavily influenced Augustine of Hippo, without whom we likely wouldn't have had purity culture running rampant in churches

If you're new to following me: I was a Christian pastor for about nine years. Then I left the faith.
It seems obvious now, in our political climate, but either all Christians have blasphemed the Holy Spirit at some point, or none of them have.

One grandparent made furniture.
One grandparent made sure their house smelled like Lemon Pledge and was dustless.
One grandparent canned jams and veggies for five families.
One drove a tractor even after he retired.
Maybe there weren't allistic people back in the old days.

Serendipity in research will always be wild to me. While writing about a priest who uncovers a 90 year old murder, a former detective helping me with the research said they would probably call "Dr. So-and-so" in real life. I googled the name. In 2013, he helped exhume a saint..

In the United States, it is federal law (31 U.S.C. § 5114(b)) that only portraits of deceased individuals may appear on U.S. currency and securities, a tradition that has been law since an 1866 Act of Congress, intended to insure the continued use of coinage in necromancy.
