Emily T. Wierenga is a former editor, freelance writer, and columnist and has written for numerous Christian publications. Emily's first novel, A Promise in Pieces, released in April 2014. She is wife to a math-teacher husband, mother, and foster mother. The Wierengas make their home in Neerlandia, Alberta, Canada. Says Emily, "Each night when our children are tucked between their sheets my husband will say, 'Come, let’s see how the children are growing,' and we’ll slip on our shoes and walk to the large triangular plot of earth that runs along our house. ...he’s talking about the corn, the tomatoes, the carrots and raspberries and the squash... We walk the rows hand-in-hand, and finish the day picking peas and weeding the strawberries. It’s easy to pray as the soil runs through my fingers, it’s easy to love when the kids run barefoot through the dirt, it’s easy to say grace for the food grown from the mere drop of a seed."

Whether we're reading or weeding, our garden plots offer a place for creative minds to relax, refresh. . . and sometimes rewrite. Welcome to our little garden spot on the Web. While you're here, we hope you'll pick a couple of titles from the garden of novels we're growing.
New gardens are added to this site frequently, so check back often and remember to scroll down and view older posts, as the posts on this blog appear alphabetically, not by date added.
DEBORAH RANEY's first novel, A Vow to Cherish, inspired the World Wide Pictures film of the same title and launched Deb’s writing career. Forty books later, she's still creating stories that touch hearts and lives. A RITA Award, Carol Award, and National Readers Choice Award winner and three-time Christy Award finalist, Deb is a recent transplant to Missouri, having moved with her husband, Ken Raney, from their native Kansas. They love road trips, Friday garage sale dates, time with their kids and grandkids, and breakfast on the screened porch overlooking their wooded backyard.
