Forget about more noise. A Little Lowder isn't a suggestion to turn up the volume. It's about "tuning in" to "a little more" from award-winning author Kristine Lowder. Surf some of Kristine's wry wit and occasionally irreverent reveries in creative nonfiction, inspirational fiction, humor, essays, devotionals, book reviews, blog posts, and ... whoa! Heads up! You never know when or where a couple goofballs may fly in... Like in Take a Hike, a sister site for those who enjoy hiking, camping, exploring, adventuring and The Great Outdoors. Plus scrumptious, no-fuss recipes and tasty treats at Dessert First! (We'll Eat the Other Food Groups Later). Check out the Bookstore for available titles as well as the Hot Sheet for the latest on my writing projects, publications and future releases. You can catch my Tweets here. See? I told you there's a little of everything here - except more noise. What others are saying: |

"In a world of writer wannabes, real writers stand out. Kristine Lowder is one of those standouts. Her skill is immediately evident as the reader is instantly engaged and always delighted by the treasures they find. Best yet: no digging is required. The gems are everywhere you look. New vistas are opened through her vivid descriptions, new thoughts inspired by the depth of her insight, and many smiles generated by memories of moments you’ve been through too." - Peggy Matthews-Rose, Writing and Editing Consultant and Contractor
"An amazing
writer! I have to praise the author's gift for description and her
command of the language! She's also terrific with dialogue and
conveying emotion." - Denise Cassino, Long Story Short Publishing "Congratulations on winning this month's Humor Writing Contest! I just read your entry and compared it against all the other entries. You
outclassed every single one. And there were three other entries which were
amazing. They just sidled up right next to yours so, so close--but yours just
outshined, outshined them all ...." - Margie Culbertson, Humor and Life, in Particular "Kristine Lowder has been sending Long Story Short ezine, her articles/stories for quite some time now. We've enjoyed her humor and her 'laugh at life' tales. She brings lots of fun and is a wonderful writer. She's always welcome to share her stories and articles with us. She's much appreciated." - Linda Barnett-Johnson Editor/Virtual Assistant www.longstoryshort.us "Kristine has an amazing way with words. She excels in novel and short story genre and writes refreshing everyday stories from the heart that can only come from a busy mother of four boys. I encourage you to read Kris' work. I promise you won't be able to put it done. Well done Kris." - Sandra Moore Strategic Sourcing Specialist, M. Arthur Gensler Jr. & Associates, Inc. "Kristine writes thoughtful, entertaining, and engaging book reviews as well as commentary on Christian living and analysis of current issues" - Bonnie Lindholm, Et. Elle

On Akeldama:
"I have read only a few Christian novels worthy of the name. My favorite Christian authors are C.S. Lewis, Stephen R. Lawhead, Joseph F. Girzone, and now Kristine Lowder. I must tell you that her book, Akeldama, touched me so deeply that I cried like a baby as I read the final chapter. Yes, the final chapter is about the resurrection of Jesus Christ—not a new subject. But something in her telling of it blessed me with joy, gratitude, awe, and wonder. I cannot remember a time when I wanted to re-read a book as soon as I finished it. Treat yourself to a great book!"
- William C. Oakes, Senior Pastor Living Stones Fellowship On Guys and Other Near Humans: "I laughed myself silly when I was reading it, and I only raised one son. Some good chuckles here!" - Judith Glad, Author and Publisher, Uncial Press
