*Light-A-Lamp*: About the Writer:

Hello Reader,

Thank you so much for coming to the Lamp Blog. I hope you have a blessed time reading all that has been written specially for you.

I am a growing author with a writing style that serves to inspire others through the Word. When I'm not writing, I'm focusing on being a newly-wed and graduate student. Born in August, 1984, writing has always been a part of my life, from the days I and my siblings made books by stapling sheets of paper and told tales about non-existent families. I stumbled on a blog in 2006 and based on a whimsical thought, the "Light a Lamp" blog was born.

In the past, I've also collaborated as one of the authors of a Literary Fiction Book Series called, "In My Dreams It Was Simpler" (available on Amazon). The name of the character I wrote for is Dolapo, a young determined woman who has 5 best friends, and who tries to find the meaning of her life in the midst of rising tragedy and success.

I also have another writing project (a novel) coming up, and you can view an excerpt from my work-in-progress (WIP) HERE.

What is this Blog About?

Posted at least twice a week, on Mondays and Thursdays, the Light-A-Lamp Blog is all about spreading the news of God's love to those who are hungry and thirsty to receive the truth about the knowledge of our Father. It is about the "good news," told in the form of both short fictional accounts and true personal stories.

And what's this "good news"?

"Good tidings have come to you who are poor, healing has come to you if you've ever been brokenhearted, if you've been held in chains you are free today, because right from this day you have stumbled upon the acceptable year of God; your tears will be dried and you will be comforted; you will have beauty for every ash, and praise for every heaviness, you will be called a "tree of righteousness," the planting of God...for many generations to come."" (Isaiah 61, the Bible).
