30-Day Marriage Makeover
Valentine’s Day. The day to express your love for your spouse and special people in your life. Just the mention of the day starts people panicking. So many expectations packed into February 14th. Kind of like marriage… While we focus all our efforts on telling our loved ones how much we love them with candy…

Read MoreI Can't Believe I Didn't Blog about My BIG NEWS!
I think facebook and twitter has ruined my blogging! 140 characters, give or take, and I’m done. If you follow me on twitter and facebook, then you already know! I signed my first fiction contract in January for a novella with Barbour. Yeah, HUGE NEWS and I didn’t blog about it. But I want to…
Read MoreFirst 20 HCG, Next 20 All ME!
At least that’s the plan! And I’m hoping the ladies at 5 Minutes for Mom can help! It’s no secret I dropped 20 lbs fast (not easy) using homeopathic HCG. I thought about doing it for years after years of exercising 5-6 times a week with NO weightloss results and seeing overweight friends slim down…
Read MoreDigitalis by Ronie Kendig
It always thrills and amazes me when I see a writer friend who I’ve known since they were prepublished churn out successful books. Ronie is one such gal. I love her Discarded Hero series for the high action and just enough romance. As you know I like to separate my suspense and romance, but Ronie…

Filled with “trashy” examples of how holding on to emotional trash can hold back all God has for you, it offers a journaling section…
Read MoreWorthwhile Reads in 2010 part 1
I read a lot of books in 2010 (NOT as much as Michelle Sutton, but still A LOT for me!) Most of them were read on the elliptical, some of them before I drifted off to sleep, but this year I was surprised at how many really good books I had stacked up in my…
Read MoreA Season of Waiting…
It’s been quiet here at Portrait of a Writer…Interrupted. Life has been busy, and well, frankly, I haven’t had much to say. Nothing profound or extraordinary has been happening in my writing or home life. Nothing that has any significance to my readers, anyway. In the quiet I’ve been waiting. Wondering. Wandering and praying for…
