GraceWords
"...so your words may give grace..."
About Us
GraceWords was created as way to share my writing with others. The first six chapters of my latest novel, short stories, poetry, and an essay are on the publications page.
My guiding principle for writing is at the top of my web page. "... so your words may give grace..." comes from Ephesians 4:29.
This venture, guided by faith, is part of the fulfillment of a dream.
During my career as an administrator at the University of California, Berkeley, I wrote and published professional journal articles - even won first prize for one of them. But my creative writing was only shared with my family and close friends.
It wasn't until I retired early in 2003 that I decided to make writing my profession. They say: "Do what you love and success will follow." I'm doing what I love with good results. I won first prize in a novel writing contest in 2008 and, in November 2009, I had a short story published in the San Francisco Chronicle. My third novel is being published in December 2010.
