New Year, New Site Victoria Ryan, January 2, 2021January 18, 2021 Photo from Wikimedia CommonsI feel close to ewe. Happy 2021! Thanks for visiting my page. I launched my new website December 31st–same URL but a different look. I’ll be blogging on Tuesdays and Thursdays about books I’m working on and topics I’m writing about for myself or for hire. Fiction and nonfiction are about people; their ideas, hang-ups, motivations, epiphanies, and triumphs. If I’ve written, am writing, or considering writing about it, I’ll blog about it. Speaking of epiphanies, my current prayer project includes a holy card of the Magi’s visit to the manger. I enjoy the symbolism used in old holy cards and think that those tiny works of religious art are a mind-stimulating way to meditate and contemplate in prayer. I’ll tell you about them starting next Tuesday. And feel free to contact me anytime with questions, suggestions or comments. In the meantime, I hope your new year brings you whatever you most want to have. VR News CatholicCatholic blog

Where did the time go?” Well, the time went to Covid over Christmas, 507 birthdays and anniversaries in February and March, and St. Patrick’s Day, or course. Watch for regular posting in April. And enjoy these precious, cool Spring days! Read More
