homes for the children? As she rescues them will they rescue her from her stone
cold heart?

Book
Blurb: Look
into the spirit realm where angels and demons interact with two average
Christians:
Fresh
out of seminary and pastoring his first church, Paul is full of zeal. The
question is . . . zeal for what? As he chases affirmation and prestige
following demonic coaxing, his guardian angel fights back.
Sarah
Edwards is a new church member and a recent widow, just saved at age 71. Will
she triumph over the demons Discouragement, Depression, Loneliness and Suicide
who attack after her husband’s death? Sarah has strong spiritual giftings but
through several unfortunate misunderstandings, Paul writes her off as an
eccentric who hears voices, causing her further isolation.
By
watching Sarah and Paul you will understand the strategies and schemes of the
enemy against you and what weapons Jesus has already provided for your defense.

Special talent: I taught myself to walk on stilts as a
youngster--tall ones and short ones. I never mastered one of each at the same
time (I only tried it once and the results were so unpalatable I rapidly gave
up!)
What’s something not many people know about you?
I've always loved humor and my first article for publication was
called My Car is Driving Me Crazy. It chronicled the demise of my car. I
was a single mom and my unreliable, stubborn car constantly broke down and left
my son and I stranded. That article was my attempt to make lemon aid out of
lemons and it's what got me started writing. I'm a self taught writer with no
English or Journalism degrees.
Now, for our little fun survey:
Pets/no pets: had to put my Australian Shepherd. Rex, down in February after 11 years. I miss his rooting snoot coming up on my bed in the morning and his whole body wiggling to greet me.

Home/travel: My dad worked for TWA when I was growing up. I miss those
inexpensive travel passes we got and there's still plenty of the world I'd love
to see--like the fiords of Norway. Anyone been there?
Write more/read more: During this season I'm reading more than I'm
writing. I'm turning The Designer Bag at the Garbage Dump into a screenplay and
it's so different. I've completed it but I'm at a loss to know how to improve
it. I'm reading a lot while I'm waiting for feedback. (I'm getting a lot of
free books from www.bookbub.com. Free and bargain books for Kindle, Nook, and more. Check
it out.)
Cake/pie: Hmmm. How cruel to make one choose? I love fruit pies but two years
ago my son asked me to make his wedding cake. Then I started watching cake
shows on TV, then I picked up a copy of The Cake Mix Doctor which has about a
hundred cakes that all start as a mix but have added ingredients. It's
convenient but doesn't taste like it's from a box. I love it!
Motorcycle/car: Car, I'm a wimp.
Bus/walk: Walk, not a total wimp.
Big church/small church: Small church, for the fellowship. I'm too introverted
to meet many people at a large church.
Happy/joyful: Unsure. I'm in a hard season now. My husband moved out and filed
for divorce.
Phone/email: E-mail. I always sound better when I can edit myself!
Eat home or eat out? I rarely eat out because I am a total
tightwad!
Sunrises or sunsets? I'm usually not out of bed for sunrises, but
I'm still up for the sunsets.

beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending. Maria Robin
Favorite hobby: I love
garage sales and thrift stores.
