Embrace the Season
I’m in a season of transition in my writing and personal life, and Writer…Interrupted will be going into a season of transition as well. I’m still waiting to hear back from the remaining editors who still have my WIP and as far as I’m concerned no news is good news. In the meantime I’m trying…
Divine Appointments
While checking my Google Alerts I can across a blog that caught my interest. I clicked over, read about Kathy’s faith, and her five children whom she homeschools. Seemed like I was on the right track to finding a new online friend. Then I found out she and her family were vacationing in my hometown…
Office Must-Haves…
My name is Tricia and I confess … I have office envy. I’ve been talking my some of my novelist friends lately and they have pretty nice offices … A comfy chair? A lamp? A mini fridge??? Sweet! I share my 12 x 12 office with four other people. We have five computer stations, and…
The Cure for the Common Writer’s Block
The dreaded writer’s block. That wall of nothingness that, sooner or later, plants itself directly in front of every writer’s path to creative bliss.

My Blog has been on the Fritz…
So I’ve bee reluctant to post any BIG news! Suffice to say there’s a lot happening in my life…all good! But stressful and time sensitive. It involves moving and some writing news. I’ll write in more detail when all this blog business is figured out. I’m also starting a newsletter. So I’ll be sharing all…
From the Inside Out!
Earlier this year I finished my novel Sweet September (Guideposts). It is an amazing story about acceptance. And about coming to terms with the course God has designed for you. It’s also a story about realizing that sometimes we need to stop looking at the destination (of striving to get “someplace”) and instead discover joy…

I’ve been pretty lax in advertising my own carnival these last several months, but it’s a good one! You won’t want to miss it! Just click on the button!
A Writer’s Reading Observations
Creston Mapes Todd and Jedd Hafer Ted Dekker TL Hines Mike Dellosso What do these names have in common? They’re the authors of the last books I’ve really liked. And I’m beginning to realize that some of my favorite books all have male protagonists and are written by men. So what does that say about…
