More than you ever wanted to know about me

My Catholic writing, blog world friend Roxane Salonen is featuring me in an interview on her Peace Garden Writer blog. I'll get you started and then you can click the link to read the rest. (I'm such a tease.) Here it is:

This month’s “Spotlight’s on” features someone I have admired and been in contact with for several years now. Mary DeTurris Poust and I have never met in real life, but we hope to someday. When that day comes, we’ll have much to talk about. Mary is a wife and mother of three, and the author of several books, each focusing on matters of the soul, as well as many articles, including those she’s written for the much-respected Our Sunday Visitor Catholic magazine. She blogs regularly for “OSV Daily Take” and at her own blog, Not Strictly Spiritual.

Thanks again, Roxane.
