My Books

On this blog, I prattle on about a variety of juicy topics. But beyond this site, I’ve also written a few books in the faith and spirituality genre. Even if their content may not be a fit for all of you who visit, know you’re welcome to participate here–regardless of background or religious belief.

Whoever you are and wherever you came from, I welcome you as a friend. And I hope you’ll find something to love somewhere here in my mess.

(Below are the descriptions of my books in all their official back-cover copy glory.)

    Hi Sara,
    I’ve found great information in your website.
    I’ll keep trying to write my book. I’ve many objections in my life to get it done, and right now I just feel frustrated and depressed. Sorry to write this, just wanted to shared with somebody.

    Best regards Sara,

    Claudia
