ACFW in a WordWhy? Pride! Can You Relate? Humble Patience
I’m Writing Again!
That’s right! I’ve got a green light! After my incredible experience at ACFW this year I felt an unexplainable peace about my writing or lack of writing. It’s hard to put into words except that the anxiousness to write and be published was gone, I was finally able to accept God’s timing. I knew I’d…
The Tag Of Four
Beck has tagged me with the four word meme. I have to personally define them, and THEN I get to tag four more people with words of my own choosing. Beck’s words: Callipygian: While studying biology this year I came across this term as some what of freakish species in nature. It’s the cross between…

Mary DeMuth on Publishing
Reprinted with permission Gina and Mary at ACFW Someone I respect in the publishing business recently made this statement: Publishing doesn’t validate your life. How true. I have to admit before I was published, I thought that if I reached that nirvana called “published author,” I’d have sweet validation. Every day would be smiles and…
Why?
I think the most dreaded word in the English language is the word WHY? Why you ask? Well, most of our unanswered questions from God start with the word why. Go ahead, take a moment to ask your own why question of God. So, did you get an answer? Maybe you did, but chances are…
ACFW in a Word
For the next week I will be summarizing my experience at ACFW in a word a day. This year’s conference had a totally different feel for me than the last two conferences I attended since I began pursuing publication in fiction. Stories from a Freshman Both at Glorietta 2004 and ACFW Nashville 2005, I went…
