Mama of Six
Writer of Books

I’m Rebecca—author, wife, mama of six, homeschooler, and chicken wrangler.

I want to help you discover JOY. As an author and a parent one of my goals is to live a life of celebration. Not just holidays (though those are fun!), but to celebrate every day. Yes, even Mondays!

My books reflect that celebration, but without denying the reality of life’s challenges. It’s my greatest hope to inspire you to celebrate the joy in everyday life, every single day.

  • For Writers and Creatives

    Whether we’re making a grocery list or writing the next blockbuster screenplay, we’re always creating. Find resources that will ignite your creativity, and get an insider’s peek into all things writing and publishing.

  • For Advent and Christmas

    I began celebrating Advent with serious intentionality more than twenty years ago. That passion has grown into a full website overflowing with resources including a free digital Advent Calendar!

  • For Everyone!

    Growing kids, like so much else in life, is an amazing gift, remarkable privilege, and astounding mystery. I created my blog, This Joyful Mess, to share our joy and to inspire YOU to find joy amidst life's beautiful messes.
