Where the Timbers Cross

Through the years I never thought about writing, but I have always stored away certain sayings that I found interesting. One of those titles was, where the timbers cross, and I always thought it would make a good story. The problem was how to put a story with some of these sayings. It was almost five years before I came up with the story that goes with the book title. I wrote two stories in 1997 and put them in a folder and forgot about them. I happened to give a cousin the stories and ask him to read them. I assumed he would do what I would have done and put them in a drawer and forget about them. I talked to him a few weeks later and he had made copies of the stories and given them to neighbors, relatives, and pastors. I then started hearing from the readers of the stories asking for more stories. My third story was written in 2015. Then I was asked about a book, so here we are. This book is composed of thirty-five Christian fiction stories. Even though the stories are fiction, many are based on true happenings I have come across over the years. Even though my name is on the book, God wrote the stories.
