To be Pregnant and a Bride Today…
No, not in that order, but I thought it might catch your attention! Did it? I’m talking about online registries. I remember when the registry at Babies R Us was the neatest thing. Got to the store, zap what you want, and pray someone buys it. Though buying something on someone’s registry was a nightmare.…
Chris’ Essay
As I turned, stated my final good byes, and watched the departure of my ride, I felt an eerie chill run down my spine, not so much of fear, but also of excitement. I inhaled a deep breath, trying to rid my brain of the prodding bombardments of this fearful nature. I entered a room…

ICRS Wrapup, Photos and a Contest!
ICRS is over, but the memories remain. Wonderful interviews with authors, visits with friends, and new discoveries on products which I will be bringing to Writer…Interrupted soon. I’m still on vacation, but hopefully I’ll get some of the interviews, video, podcasts and photos uploaded starting on Saturdays in September. You won’t want to miss all…
I Love Lucy and Georgiana Daniels’ Table for One!
Really I do! Lucy Brocklehurst is a quirky, lovable character with zany dating mishaps that make you really feel for her. She’s trying to make a living and pave a way in a male dominated field. As a Stockbroker she’s pretty good. In love and relationships, she needs some help! Then she meets the hot…
ICRS Day Two: Tuesday
I can hardly recall what happened Tuesday, but I’ll try! I showed up early so I could get out on the floor and check out all the booths. But the floor didn’t open until 9:30 and I had a 10:00. Yesterday I was only out on the floor for 45 minutes, but at least got…
ICRS recap: Saturday through Monday!
I survived all my interviews and only missed meeting with a couple of writers! Everything is blurring together but I’ll try to get as much down as I can. Saturday I had a great meeting with one of the agents interested in my WIP. You can read all about it here. Later that night I…
It’s All a Misunderstanding
Have you ever been misunderstood? Your intentions misjudged? Your actions or words misread? It’s not a good feeling. Often, we become hurt and defensive. We begin to question and doubt ourselves. It can lead to conflict without and within. In Joshua 22, the twelve tribes of Israel have settled in the Promised…
Perks of ICRS
One of the perks, I’m finding, of being media at ICRS is that publishers send me books out of the blue, wanting me to interview their authors. Unfortunately I’m all booked up with over two dozen interviews, but I wanted to mention New Hope Publishers and the many books they sent me. Sorry, I don’t…
Promotion: to do or not to do
How much time do you spend on promoting? That’s a question I ask myself periodically. Lately it has crept up again. Promotion for an author is becoming more and more important. But where do you draw the line? If you spend too much time promoting, that means you aren’t writing. How do you balance promoting…
