I don’t know what I expected from this movie- I thought I knew but didn’t. Sure we can expect violence and death; after all, it is called Lone Survivor.  I did not read the book but have spoken with several people who did-apparently everything is based on actual events. It’s been a few weeks since […]

Last Saturday, I attended a day long retreat with about 25 others-it was our annual Benedictine day for reflection but the usual group leaders were unavailable. The priest who organized the day did so from the perspective of a parish priest-not a Benedictine monk or contemplative but one with bills to pay and meals to […]

  One of the many reasons I remain a Benedictine Oblate is the promise we make each day to read, study and ponder the words of the Daily Office. Known as the Breviary, there was a time that the Office was accessible only to priests. Somewhere around or after Vatican ll, that prohibition was lifted. Only […]

About Lin Wilder

I, Claudia is published.

Since we have the cover for My Name is Saul! I’m already working on my next novel of the ancient world

This new story of  of St. Paul’s early life requires some fairly rigorous study of mosaic law and history. With specific attention to some of the great minds of the Jewish ancient faith and traditions. Primary among them is Gamaliel a prominent Sanhedrin scholar and teacher of Saul. My stack of research books is growing by the week.

You may be wondering if this new direction into novels of the ancient world signifies the end of the Lindsey McCall mystery series. I think yes, at least at this point, I have written all I know about Lindsey, Rich and their world.

Of course, that could change. But these novels of the ancient world can potentially keep me busy until the day when I stop writing.

The new genre excites me because Judaism has long been a fascination. In fact, back during those days of believing in nothing at all, it was at a Jewish wedding where I put words to the unspoken thoughts that I needed a faith, tradition, one where I belonged. But that is another story!

As always, thanks for checking out About Lin Wilder!
