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.

In my efforts for clean, healthy eating, green living, recycling, and trying to be a better steward of God’s creation, I find a reality that cannot be escaped. Our bodies, as amazing as they are, this world, as beautiful as … Continue reading

Thoughts on the Drought

I am so thankful for the rain we received this past weekend. I’m thankful because most of Texas is currently in an exceptional drought status. The 12 months ending on August 31st were the driest 12 months in Texas history, … Continue reading
