What David Said
Did you ever pick up a greeting card, be it birthday, anniversary, get well, or thank you, and the message on the inside was perfect, it expressed exactly what was on your heart, so you just scribbled your name under the poem or verse or sappy message or whatever? Men, those of the male gender…
ACFW & My Stalker Part 3
So I left off telling you about my trip back and forth from the business center and front desk to try and print my pages for my editor appointment the next day when I say a guy wearing a leather jacket who reminded me of my brother in law. I really didn’t think much of…

Fireproof Interviews!
During ICRS, I had the privilege of attending the Fireproof screening and dinner with Kirk Cameron, Erin Bethea and many of the people who worked on the movie. It’s so hard to put the experience into words. The evening was filled with awe of what God could do with a church with a desire to…

1. You wake well rested and miss the symphony of toilet flushes! 2. You still feel that post ACFW conference stooper, and wonder if it was all but a dream because the memories and euphoria are fading. 3. You realize YOU have to cook breakfast. 4. The noise you hear from downstairs is NOT the…
Book Endorsements
The subject of endorsements seems to be a hot one, but especially among debut novelists and more and more often even among un-contracted writers. It seems that no matter what writing circle I am in, new and aspiring authors are stressed out about finding an endorser. As a debut novelist myself, I am nowhere near…
ACFW Memories Part 1
I remember my first ACFW conference in Nashville, Tennesse. Therese Stenzel, Margaret Daley and I drove nine hours, talking pitches and plotting all the way. Therese and I were anxious, Margaret was our encourager. The conference filled me socially and spiritually. I met online friends and new friends. Lasting friendships with people like me, who…
