Daily Grind
I Must Be CRAZY and an Update on Life!
But I’m sure you already figured that out! Tomorrow was supposed to be Timmy’s 8th Birthday party. We ordered sunshine for his SURVIVOR party. But it’ll be raining all week. Thursday was supposed to be the rain date for party. Supposed to be 40% showers. So I emailed everyone asking if Sunday would be better,…
What Would You Do?
I have the opportunity to attend a Cecil Murphy mentoring clinic and I sort of have the money. I was saving up for ACFW, which I still plan on attending, but I put the money toward this mentoring clinic with this amazing author. Haven’t heard of him? That’s because he’s ghost written a gazillion books…

Week Highlights So Far!
Sunday: Finally got around to having Grace’s birthday party. She wanted a pool party, so we invited a large crew to fill up the big swim school pool. Swim went great, but craming 30 kids and a dozen parents into small room, not so good! First time I didn’t get to take home cake (1/2…
So Many Requests. So Little Time!
ICRS interviews. Book reviews and promotions. Blog tours. Product reviews. I’d love to say yes to them all, but I have to be very selective. I’m feeling the pressure and stress and it’s really not necessary. I can say “no.” I will say “no.” I must say “no.” I’ll will have to weigh each request…
Grace and Grandma
“Evil Grandma!” “Evil Grandma!” That’s what Grace shouted when Grandma came to congratulate her after her graduation. Grace was just having fun, being silly, but Grandma was mortified. You see, Grace and Grandma have been having issues since she came to live here after she broke her wrist five months ago. (Five months, wow! It…

ICRS!?! Let the Chaos Begin!
It’s as official as it can get. I’m going to ICRS (International Christian Retail Show) as media! That means I get to interview authors for my blog. That also means I’m being inundated with phone calls and email requests by publicity people wanting me to interview their artist/authors. YIKES! Talk about biting off more than…
Calling All Readers and a Contest!
It’s been a little quiet around here! I know, I know this blog has been book review heavy and such, but that’s because I’ve been living life, meeting deadlines, and LOVE to help promote fellow writers. I just started Twittering, so my day to day activities are recorded there. But I’d love to honor my…
