I've never been able to warm to St. Paul, but Peter! My profane and passionate friend, I call him the patron saint of f***-ups. I love that scene where a disciple kneels in homage and he tells him, Get up! I'm just a man! How vivid a character he is, and what hope he gives those of us who disappoint God and ourselves. Thanks for this lovely meditation.
Thank you, yes—I'm well and busy, having just completed a new series of, ah, 36 books. But they're just novellas, only about 50,000 words each. And G.K. Chesterton was a major influence. Anyway, since they're impossible to publish conventionally, I'm giving them away. If you like, I'll send you the link along with the disclaimer that you're not expected to read them all.
A 4K page book. You are a serious reader. Okay, here's the link: https://www.robinhardyabbeylands.com PDFs and EPUBs are available now, and I'm working on audiobooks. The story starts out as an icky romance, but once they get married everything goes off the rails. I've had a lot of fun with it. You can skip to the Afterword at the end of Book 36 to see how GKC inspired me.
Also, for what it's worth, I'm praying for your health.
“Being a people filled with joy and charity so great that people say, What’s your secret?”
Love alone is credible (von Balthasar). Lord, make us credible.

This is wonderful. I love it so much; it's almost too personal.
Thank you! (I used to know a writer named Robin Hardy.)
Yep, that's me
Oh wow! So great to find you again. That’s so strange because I just thought of you last week. Hope you’re well!

Please do! I’m in the process of finishing a 4000 page book so I might not get anything for a while, but I’ll be glad to have them
