About the Authors

Olivia
Olivia (also known as Livy, Livi, or Livvy) may seem like a normal person when you first meet her, but spend a little time with her and find out she is actually one insane chic.  Totally opposite from what society calls “cool”, Olivia loves watching old musicals, wears baggy jackets, drinks lots of tea, and sleeps with her baby blankie.  But most of all, she wants to identify herself as a Jesus freak.  Her dream is to serve as an overseas missionary to people who have nothing.  And also to eat cookies on top of Mount Everest.

Sam
Sam is 21 and a drama queen to boot.  She may act a little crazy sometimes, but she does have a serious streak. Really! She likes sunglasses, photography, writing, sunshine and puppies, purple nail polish, and above all things: Jesus! She tries to show her love, as well as encourage other crazy, teenage girls, through her writing.

HannahBeth
HannahBeth is an 19 year old obsessed with crayons, tea, and chocolate. She works at a café/bakery where she gets free Dr. Pepper and coffee drinks, so the caffeine makes her a little crazy sometimes. Some of her friends call her HannahBee, or just Bee, or even HB, so don’t be surprised if you see those names scattered over the blog.
Despite her quirks, she loves the Lord and strives to serve and honor Him in everything she does. She’s slowly learning to surrender everything to God, and is realizing she has much more to learn about living worthy of Christ!

Amy
Amy (or “Ducky” as her friends call her ) is an 20-year-old (she survived the teen years! WOOT! ) Pastor’s daughter who feels called to be a missionary and help orphans. She enjoys knitting, talking on the phone, video chatting, letters, friends, family, writing, reading, old musicals, gum, tea, making rag dolls, and many other things! She currently works as a babysitter and house cleaner. She was homeschooled all her life, and is currently taking Deaf studies in college.
She truly hopes to honor and glorify God with her whole life!

Madeline

Madeline, also known as Maddie or Madds, is 18, and the third oldest of ten children. She has been home schooled all her life, and would like to keep it that way. Maddie’s most favorite things are reading, playing the piano, playing around on the computer, and being with her family and friends. Some of Maddie’s “weaknesses” are old keys, castles, elephants, pianos, rings, lockets, tea cups, and almost anything old fashioned.
Madeline loves the Lord and is trying to follow him with her whole heart, not just parts of it.
