TJ and I are Christians. That being said, we aren't perfect people who are never mean and who never speak out in anger. We occasionally use language/words unbecoming our calling... Even with one another. But as the Doobie Brothers once sang: I don't care what they say! Jesus is just all right with me. Everyone… Continue reading I Don’t Care What They Say!

Here Comes the Sun (in the Valley of the Sun)
So, book events are like, what did we learn this time? At the Tombstone Western Writers event we learned to make sure certain things in the new trailer still work. Like the refrigerator and the heater. Because wow, was the weather ever cold, rainy, and windy down there. Thursday and Friday were bitterly cold, mostly… Continue reading Here Comes the Sun (in the Valley of the Sun)
Oh, Little Town of Bethlehem
I have always wanted to go to Israel and Lebanon. I suppose now isn't the time, though. With the terrorists attacking, holding hostages, and assaulting women and children, I need to stay out of there. But someday. Someday, there will be peace for a minute. I will go walk where Jesus walked. Did you know… Continue reading Oh, Little Town of Bethlehem
Until You Find Your Dream
So much time passes between blogs. I wish I was dedicated to writing weekly [on here]. TJ and I manage to write almost each day on our books. I'm not sure what story he's working on right now. I, however, am editing his Lost at Sea book. This story is adventure, mobster, and mystery, sort… Continue reading Until You Find Your Dream
Follow God’s Rainbow
Life take interesting turns. As Bugs says, "it's very interesting." Last summer, TJ's heart tests weren't great. The docs said his ejection fraction (EJ) dangerously low. A defibrillator placement was suggested. The defibrillator would shock his heart back to work in the event of a new heart attack, giving us time to call emergency services… Continue reading Follow God’s Rainbow
Climb Every Mountain!
We have moments in our lives where things seem very dark. We also have those other moments in our lives where things seem exceptionally bright. Today is a bright day for me--a transition day! Six years ago, I got the first diagnosis. Breast cancer. But with only surgery for that, I moved on. Scars don't… Continue reading Climb Every Mountain!

I Love Christmas
Nine years ago, my son Thomas and I took Simone and Nasif up north to the snow. She was 19 and he was 8 years old. We found the best place to play, sled, and freeze. If you're from AZ, you know just what I mean. This year, with Simone 28, Nasif 17, and the… Continue reading I Love Christmas
I Don’t Care What You Say Anymore
I love football. This has only a little to do with my testimony, but it has to be said. Although TJ can’t understand this, or see it, football is a game of life. You could compare it to good and evil fighting against one another, but on a field. There are a lot of rules… Continue reading I Don’t Care What You Say Anymore
They Heard the Breeze in the Trees
Hi, everyone! I usually begin my blogs with a song title. Did anyone notice? My dad, Jay Ajamie, used to sing a lot of the songs I use [for titles] to my sister, Susan Wingate and me when we were kiddos. You can see Susan's books if you click on her page. All that being… Continue reading They Heard the Breeze in the Trees
I Can Only Imagine
I want to talk about Bill Chesbro. Bill and his wife, Betty have been friends of ours for about fifteen years. Bill was in the military/a veteran! They were Christian missionaries to Asia. Bill was an Elder and a Deacon. Several times, he stepped in when Pastor Randy Cook needed to be out on a… Continue reading I Can Only Imagine
Like a River Flows…
TJ & Elizabeth got married, still in high school, and now, forty-eight years later-- HISTORY. Yes, there will be a small celebration on Friday, January 21. They are pretty happy, this crazy couple who's love flows like a river to the sea, and some things are meant to be. Recently, TJ had surgery on his… Continue reading Like a River Flows…
The Weather Outside is Frightful

At the same time, I've told you all the writing news in the last couple of blogs, and you deserve to hear new things. That being said, there isn't anything… Continue reading The Weather Outside is Frightful
Just An Old-Fashioned Love Song
A long, long time ago in a land not so far from here, TJ Boyer and Elizabeth Ajamie met in high school. They were freshman at East Phoenix High. They attended English class together. Near the end of high school, TJ was in the Army National Guard, and the couple married. This life they chose… Continue reading Just An Old-Fashioned Love Song
Hold My Beer
TJ and Elizabeth began writing a murder mystery this week. This is a true collaboration with both authors writing into the manuscript. Afterwards, they arm wrestle to see what stays and what goes. Elizabeth's friend, Barb suggested they be careful or they may end up writing a true crime story. Ha! To this, Elizabeth said,… Continue reading Hold My Beer
