YOUR LIFE COACHING WV

Hey Y'all! I can't believe its already the middle of September! Here on the Creek, family life has been crazy busy, so time is flying right by - but once again, I'm ready to pick up my pen and get back to my fictional family! Speaking of fictional families, recently someone asked what in the world ever prompted me to start writing...let alone a create a family, map out a location, and write an entire series! Seriously, what was I thinking? Well, their question stumped me so I had to rack my brain, asking myself that same question: "Why did I start writing?"  Then it hit me: talking to my sister about our Granddaddy's red mitten! Grandfather Alfred Moyer's wool mitten The answer to how just one wool mitten ended up in our mom's cedar chest remains a mystery, lack of information has fueled my imagination. The result: a typical mountain-farm family facing life head on - yet holding on to things they'd best let go.  Like Miss Molly S

" Can life really change people in such drastic ways ?"  (Nicholas Evans, Redeemed by Faith , 2019). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hey Y'all!  Redeemed by Faith is now live for purchase! Here are a few of my early morning thoughts on the book: Have you ever done something that went against your true nature? Something that eats at your gut, making you question who you are as a person? It happens...and in  Redeemed by Faith , we get a front row seat as life changing events are faced head-on, but not without questions, tears, fear, and faith.  Books 1 and 2 of the Life on the Allegheny Front Series gave us a good feel for who Nicholas "Nicky" Evans and Georgette "Georgie" Chamberlin were as individuals (one is thoughtful and one is selfish; one is grounded and one is unsettled), but in book 3 we see them morph from self-absorbed individuals, into a selfless and responsive couple!

I am happy to announce that ' After Storms ' is FINALLY under final review by the author!  And y'all...if I've learned one thing about self-publishing it is this: Editing is not fun and can actually kill creative drive! With that said, I've registered for a couple writers conferences and courses to help me better understand this daunting task. In the mean time, I picked up a copy of book 1,  'Molly's Cabin', and sat down to criticize my own work...instead I found myself caught up in the story!  Happy reading y'all ~ Jordan Hey y'all! Just wanted to take a moment to share a little more about the Life on the Allegheny Front series.  Featuring the Evans family farms, located in a clannish rural community, the series deals with a variety of hard life lessons and painful choices. While the characters and story lines are fictional, I choose to 'recycle' a few family names as a tribute to my late parents, grandparents

I'm pleased to announce that the kickoff novella for the series "Life on the Allegheny Front" Molly's Cabin has been published as an e-book and on sale at Amazon.com! If you're looking for a novel series that isn't afraid to address the issues we're currently facing right here in the Mountain State - this series is for you! The short of it: Following the fire that killed spinster Molly Sivits’ parents, neighbor Pete Evans organizes their community to rally around Molly, offering her hope, healing, a home, and love that defies all odds. Just a little more than that: "When her family home is destroyed by fire, Spinster Molly Sivits is left orphaned and homeless. Once she is physically on the mend, her neighbors clean up the ruins, building her a cabin nearby. But fear of being alone holds Molly captive, and she only visits the cabin, never moving in.  Not wanting Molly to continue on the slippery slope of depression, whil

Hey, y'all! I hope 2019 started out well for ya.  I decided early on that this was going to be a great year...and then I got out of bed. Seriously though, twenty-three days in, and I'm already wanting to ask God for a time-out - a reprieve - a break. Can we do that? I sure hope so. Be blessed,  Coach Kelly
