I have thought about the Mary and Martha passage for years. And my sympathies invariably lie with Martha, because I have an image, a very clear image, of what she is dealing with.

Soon, I’ll celebrate my 17th year as a Roman Catholic; as with many momentous events in one’s life, it feels both like yesterday and a million years ago that I made the decision to become a Christian Catholic.

About Lin Wilder

I, Claudia has received a NABE Pinnacle Book Achievement
Award Winners for Winter 2019: Best book in historical fiction. And the next topic is My Name is Saul. Since I started writing Saul in the middle of January, and it is almost the first of June, you would think that I’d be close to halfway through the story.

However, that is not the case. For some reason, this young man eludes me still. I have poured through the fifteen or so books and articles found on his early life and childhood enough to learn there is next to nothing known about them. Other than the bare facts we know from his Gospels.

That’s a good thing because that means there is vast capacity for creative imagination. And a problem for the same reasons.

Once again, this is the time where patience, quiet, listening, and more patience are essential. Since this is my 7th book, those qualities are more accessible than when this adventure began, But there are days when writing one paragraph is the sole output. And of late, there are some where it’s just one sentence. And I must confess, days when there are none.

As always, thanks for checking out About Lin Wilder!
