I love reading! Being in Guatemala means I don’t have a lot of access to English books, but I find them online when I can. I would love to get a Kindle now that they have made the international version available, but can’t justify it just yet. Here are my favorite reads:

- Anything by Marilyn Halverson
- Anything by S.E. Hinton
- Anything by Monica Hughes (especially Invitation to the Game)
- The Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter series
- The Vampire Academy series
- Chronicles of Narnia
- The Anthropos Chronicles by John White

As an ecumenical Christian poet & writer, I like to read the Bible cover to cover to get a clearer understanding of God and the church in all its faces. I especially love writing poetry, so I focus on the works of biblical poets, Pulitzer-prize winning poets, and children’s poets, and I welcome “how-to” books (like those published by Writers Digest) on effective techniques to use in writing and revising. Since I also enjoy writing children’s books, I read those too – the classics and new books that kids respond to well.
