O Me of Little Faith

So I have a new contest idea. While reading for my audiobook last week, I was pleasantly re-introduced to one of my favorite sentences from the upcoming book. I smiled when I read it, and I remembered that one of my early readers (my sister, who has just started blogging and it’s about freaking time)…

I spent several hours on Tuesday and several today recording the unabridged audio book version of O Me of Little Faith. It wasn’t my first time in a recording studio, but was definitely my first time to record an audio book. I learned some things in the process: 1. Never, ever write a book that…

A conversation: Seriously? “The LENTerview”? That’s horrible. Sorry. It was a spur-of-the-moment thing, like when I got that figure-skating demon tattoo. Which is also horrible. Agreed. I have my regrets. So the season of Lent begins today, right? Yes. Today is Ash Wednesday. Lent continues from today until Easter, which is April 4. I didn’t…

I’m no investigative journalist, but I’ve got skills, and Twitter, and email, and every once in awhile I can come up with a pretty sweet scoop. Which I have done today: I’ve identified the kid on the cover of O Me of Little Faith, and uncovered the intriguing backstory behind the band-aids, the pose, and…

I like to read stories about interesting people. And I like to read books by excellent writers–the kind who, technically, are very good at their craft. When a gifted writer happens to be an interesting person with compelling stories and a creative perspective, then that’s a book I will enjoy and recommend. Which brings us…

We’ve had quite a few new readers lately — thanks, everyone, for stopping by — so I figured today would be a good time for some feedbacky fun. Let’s get to know each other better. How? By answering highly personal questions in a highly public forum, that’s how. Please use the comments to answer the…

It’s Tuesday, but I’m still thinking about the Super Bowl ads. I happened to watch Super Bowl 44 at home, with my family, and got to really focus on the ads more than usual. There were a few good ones — as I mentioned yesterday, Google’s ad was genius — but most of them were…

It’s been a long time since the first time I did a “now list.” Which means it’s probably time to do one again. Feel free to contribute your own list at your blog or in the comments below. What I was listening to when I began this post:“Honey, I Been Thinking About You” by Jackie…

Earlier this week I revealed my childhood love for dinosaurs. And as a kid growing up in a devout Christian home, I also harbored a childhood love for Jesus. Some of my first real spiritual questions came when I wasn’t able to fit my beloved dinosaurs into the biblical narrative. Too bad I didn’t have…

In Stephen Hawking’s A Brief History of Time, the famous physicist opens with a story about a prominent scientist (probably Bertrand Russell) who gave a public astronomy lecture way back in the day. He explained how the earth moved around the sun, and how the sun is just one of an countless stars in our…
