"We are surrounded by people everywhere we go who are walking heroes, but you would never know it. I love telling their stories and inspiring those whose struggles may seem invisible to everyone else, but never to God. I do have a novel I am anxious to write," she notes. "With the working title "Helen of Antioch," it's going to be a historical fiction based loosely on the teenage journals of a woman near and dear to my heart who was born in the early 20th century, and passed away in 2010."
