That Time I Decided to Rewrite My First Novel….

I can remember the day I started writing my first book. It was someday in the spring, 2014. I was sitting at my usual fave spot at our kitchen table, right next to the window, which had revealed a nice spring day (I think, haha, but I was writing about spring that day because I felt inspired to do so, so I'm guessing it was). I remember[...]

Writing My Book

It's been over a year since I first began working on my now finished novel. Sometimes it's still hard to believe. Even if my novel doesn't go anywhere - which, it will, I'm determined to make something happen with it - it was still an awesome journey I took, writing a book. I learned a lot in my faith as I wrote it, something I didn'[...]

Fulfilling My Dream

Yesterday I talked about starting my mission. Now I'm going to talk about how I got to where I am now. Nothing phenomenal happened, or you would have heard of that by now. But it was a start and it took me somewhere, even if it only took me farther by a little bit. There were 2 big highlights that really got me motivated to get to t[...]

Hi, I’m Ashlee!

Hi, I’m Ashlee!

Welcome to My Blog

I am passionate about sharing and living for Jesus, authentic storytelling, moving design, and all things girly, just because. Here on my blog, I love writing about all the things God is teaching me in my everyday life to inspire, encourage, and entertain for His glory, above all, and to share an honest, raw view of life, faith, and His light, love, and hope that saves. As an aspiring author, I record my journey of trusting God with all my dreams. I pray this space can help you fall in love with God more deeply, make you laugh, and encourage, challenge, and reassure you as you seek to live a bold, abundant life for Him.
