YA Fantasy: Marigold: A Creator Story
Marigold: A Creator Story is the first book in a trilogy of Young Adult fantasy novels. Here is a synopsis of the story:
Marigold Summerville is not your average seventeen year old. For one thing, she has pink hair (for now anyways; she might go back to blue soon). And, well, let’s just say that anxious, antisocial artist is a great way to describe her. With parents expecting perfection and a sister eager to taunt, Mari doesn’t have a whole lot of happy in her life. Except for the eccentric Miss Lili... and her art, of course.
Creativity (and control) are Mari’s anchors in the storms of life. Isn’t it fitting, then, that a freak
storm is what turns her life upside down?
Suddenly, Mari is out of control. In a world unlike any she has known before. Where girls can
become animals and wind can hypnotize, giant pineapples grow in the desert and people
are as friendly as can be.
But there is a darkness, a fear, that Mari cannot shake.
When secrets are revealed and hint at a mighty destiny, Mari must choose: say yes to the
unknown, or return to the (albeit few) comforts of home?
Christian Devotional: Worth More
Worth More: Learning Who God Says You Are & Living It Out in Singleness and Dating is a Christian devotional rooted in scripture, my personal stories, and reflection questions. It is for the girl who...
Thinks something is wrong with her because she’s never dated. Sees her friends getting engaged and married, and celebrates with them, but feels like crying on the inside. Bounces from one bad relationship to the next and doesn’t know how to stop it. Knows there has to be something more than this hunger for affection and approval, but doesn’t know where to find it.
And trust me, I get it. I was all of the above for most of my life. Why? Because I didn’t believe
what God said about me. I wasn’t His masterpiece, or His beloved daughter, or worth dying
on the cross for. I wasn’t good enough or perfect enough.
So, I searched for approval in the arms of a guy. Until things went wrong. And they always did.
Any of this ring a bell? If so, I have good news: God has so much more in store... because you
are worth so much more than you know. You are loved, unconditionally and completely.
It’s time to believe it, and to live it out... in singleness, dating, and everything in between.
