The Circle of Seasons: A Conversation with Kimberlee Conway Ireton

Dena Dyer

I met THC community member Kimberlee Conway Ireton last fall at the Laity Lodge Writer's Retreat, and I was immediately drawn to her wit, intelligence, and talent. She was easy to be around, too--and obviously smitten with her hubby, Jesus, books, and kids. A kindred spirit, indeed. :) A few weeks later, Kimberlee was kind enough to send me a copy of her...
