Notes from Kathryn

Early Fall, 2026

Dear Friends, and All Those Who Love Words,

I have put pen to paper to banish my grief. The sadness of my losses still comes in waves, but the waves are smaller and farther apart. I have been humbled by it, have learned from it, and I hope it has made me a “softer” person.

Today, I am celebrating the completion of my three-book series, entitled “The Abigail Series.” The inspiration of this series comes from the Abigail and Nabal story in the Old Testament (1Samuel, 25). The novels take place in Baltimore, Maryland circa 1880 to 1938. It has been a twelve-year journey of research, writing and remembering. As you know, sometimes writers become entangled in their own experiences. Indeed, I have, but my real intent is to share what I have learned.

Thanks to my faithful readers, who have said, “I want more Abigail.” This has motivated me to continue the Abigail story and to persist through life’s ups and downs. My future looks bright because, “I belong to my faithful savior, Jesus Christ.” He has and continues to bless me with good health (at least so far), beautiful grandchildren, and a rich inward journey that soothes and yet, challenges me.

God Bless You Now and Always,

Kathryn
