Oh no, not another blog!

For years I told myself I would never write a blog. Many, no, most blogs are simply opinion pieces–and too many of them spout off opinions I find harsh, uninformed, poorly thought out or poorly expressed. People already have opinions; they almost certainly are not interested in mine.

But I have entered the self-publishing business, and want a vehicle to advertise my books. Not that most people are any more interested in reading advertisements than they are in reading opinions. So I have decided to do two things. First, I will fill the blog itself with things I hope people will want to read: a joke or two, a short passage from a giant of the Christian faith, brief Bible study, things like that. I hope readers will come away from the weekly blog feeling it was worth their time. And yes, I will include information on my books. I have added a page to this website, “Buying my books,” which gives detailed information on how to do just that.
