When not actually writing, I am researching the world with my long-suffering husband and our two kids, or outside editing my garden.
My novel, The Keeper of the Crystal Spring (Viking Penguin), can be read in English, German, Spanish, and Italian. My storytelling anthology, Apples From Heaven, garnered four national awards, including the Anne Izard Storytellers’ Choice. I am currently working on a contemporary women’s novel.

Love it! 🙂
Thanks, Marianne!
Hilarious!
Awesome! Love the play on words.
Thanks, mj. I appreciate your visit.
Great Warning 🙂
Hi Jake, thanks for stopping by. ( I’m trying to decide what to do for Jake’s Sunday Post.)
Great photo! Love the fun involved.
Thank you, Patti. They are a kick to travel with.
Very nice Naomi!!
Made me smile!
Oh, Pablo, thank you so much. I hope my readers will check out your website, because your photos will take their breath away.
LOVE IT! I think your fam is related to mine! ♥
Dear Paula, I will take that as a high compliment! I know for a fact that your family is not afraid to have a little fun.
haha!! I think you should be a bit afraid! lol!!
What great fun! I love puns.
Funny – I took a similar shot of my son at the edge of a waterfall in Eugene parodying the caution sign…something about not going beyond this point…then I had to walk away so as not to get my “mother anxiety” started.
That is funny, Scilla! As long as they were lying on the ground, I felt okay about it, but in the next shot (not shown), I found myself wanting to clip them to my belt with the camera strap to keep them away from the edge.
only with humor we can survive…
Oh, dear frizztext, that is so true!
Now this is so funny! 🙂
Thank you, Elizabeth! We have a lot of fun.
Oh Noooo! *Footsy runs away*
Made me smile. Thanks for stopping by, Footsy!
Nothing wrong with a good sense of humor 🙂
Thank you, Maggie!
How funny!
Hi Carol, it reminds me of you and your kids having fun, posing in the road or the cemetery. I have a feeling our families might have some things in common! Thanks for stopping by.
Having been the designer of many a public sign, I couldn’t help but think, “What? And who in the world is Cliff Falls? Did he pay for this advertising?” I sincerely hope this ISN’T their day job! ( the sign maker, that is.)
Love that your children engage in such frivolity. That joy in the spontaneous moment – icing on life’s cupcake.
That kind of fun certainly is the icing on the cupcake of life! (I love that expression–definitely a keeper!) Oh, my gosh, you would enjoy England! I think the rule for English sign makers is “Never say anything in two words, if you can find a way to say it in six or eight.” Compared to us, they are extremely polite. Instead of “Curb your dog” they say, “Please don’t allow your dog to foul the sidewalk, for the sake of convenience and consideration of others.” I love England!
I love the signs I see when traveling. This one is priceless. Love how they got right into the swing of things too. 🙂
Thanks, Kourtney. My kids are not shy about that sort of thing. I remember picking my son Eli up after his soccer practice, along with a car full of my siblings, all dressed up after a pre-Halloween trip to the thrift store. Not only did we not embarrass him by coming in costume, but he let us dress him up too, right there in the school parking lot, and then take him to the DQ in what we thought looked rather like an Elvis costume.
That’s too funny 😆
Thanks, Madhu!
That is hilarious! You guys are a crack up! 😀
Thanks, Debra. We have a lot of fun.
This is wonderful, Naomi! Made my evening.
Thank you, Millie!
Who is this Cliff Falls and why is he making so much trouble?
Good questions, all! Thanks for the visit, and the laugh.
Very clever! 🙂
Thanks, Cathy!
Wonderful. Two thumbs UP.
Hi Tess! Hurray, I’ll take it! Thanks for the visit. I hope you and the little lady are well. xo, n
Hi Naomi,

Dear Kasia,
Thank you so much! I really appreciate the honor. I have been trying to catch up with my blogging after a summer of storytelling and travel, but I read that you have released your book. The cover art was great. Congratulations! I am looking forward to reading it!

HI Janet,
Couldn’t resist. When the kids got up they were covered with little crawly bugs, but it was worth it! Thanks so much for the visit!
Haha Love it! So odd ball and off the wall humour 🙂
