"O what joy for those who can live in Your house, always singing Your praises." (Psalm 84:4)

O what a joy it's been writing  Once Upon a Neighborhood, A Fort Payne, Alabama Story—a patchwork of memories and imagination through my eyes as a seven-year-old in 1963. Next week, the manuscript falls into my publisher's hands.

O Lord, please use this little storybook to bless my family, old friends, the good folks of Fort Payne, and every dear reader. Please draw them into Your Word and closer to You. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
