About Jill English Johnston

God writes His story on every heart, if we only pause to read it. My heart has lived in a fantasy world since early childhood and am delighted that God has finally brought me to the place where I can bring the fantasies to life through story. I am currently working on a fantasy trilogy (of course) but I also post thoughts, reflections and (hopefully) inspiration to my website: tabletsofhumanhearts.wordpress.com I am a follower of the Rabbi Jesus, married to my best friend and inspiration, and the mother of three incredible children, one daughter and two sons, a son-in-love, a daughter-in-love and two adorable granddaughters. When not writing, I passionately pursue prayer, reading (never enough time to read them all!), and the outdoors. My husband and I both served in the US Navy and have lived/travelled through many states and all over Asia. We both still enjoy travelling, but we really love our home in New Braunfels, located at the Texas Hill Country.

Showing off in our fear, anxiety and worry

Posted on May 29, 2018 by Jill English Johnston

In Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks we noticed warnings posted everywhere instructing what to do in a bear encounter. Bear spray was encouraged for hikers. For $50 a can, I thought it was a scam. But after a little … Continue reading →

Showing Off in the Heights

Posted on May 10, 2018 by Jill English Johnston

  Heights. My husband loves heights. Mountain tops. Soaring overlooks. Lofty vistas. When we get to any place high, he grabs his camera and races to the edge. Which gives me a heart attack every time. If there’s a railing … Continue reading →
