About

I I'm an art teacher, freelance writer, dancer and avid gardener. I've written three non-fiction books which have been published by small presses. All three are spiritual in nature. When God Speaks is a journey through the landscape of God's powerful promises. Transformed--Inspiring Stories of Freedom relates the amazing tranformation of men caught in the bonds of addiciton and released by the power of God.Letters to God on a Prodigal Son is a journal of a mother who cries out to God in prayer for her addicted son and finds the true source of peace and hope. I'm working on a spiritual warfare novel to be released in the fall.

Description

<p><span style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">Richard II found himself under siege not once, but twice in his minority. Crowned king at age ten, he was only fourteen when the Peasants' Revolt terrorized London. But he proved himself every bit the Plantagenet successor, facing Wat Tyler and the rebels when all seemed lost. Alas, his triumph was short-lived, and for the next ten years he struggled to assert himself against his uncles and increasingly hostile nobles. Just like in the days of his great-grandfather Edward II, vengeful magnates strove to separate him from his friends and advisors, and even threatened to depose him if he refused to do their bidding. The Lords Appellant, as they came to be known, purged the royal household with the help of the Merciless Parliament. They murdered his closest allies, leaving the King alone and defenseless. He would never forget his humiliation at the hands of his subjects. Richard's inability to protect his adherents would haunt him for the rest of his life, and he vowed that next time, retribution would be his.</span><br /><span class="a-text-bold" style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-weight:700;">B.R.A.G.
