ICRS Interview: Susan May Warren
I’m so excited to bring to you the first of the ICRS interviews me and Terri Tiffany conducted. Between the two of us we interviewed authors like Karen Kingsbury, Terri Blackstock, James Scott Bell, Brandilyn Collins and many more. Join us on Saturdays the next couple of months for these interviews, some of which we…
Little By Little
I remember what is was like looking at published authors. They seemed to have everything together … and I seemed so lost on God’s plan for me. I’ve been looking back at old journals and it helps to remember how far God has brought me. Maybe this will also encourage those of you who are…
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…
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…

It’s Official
It finally happened. Ruby Among Us officially released last week. What did it feel like? There are no words, but I will try. I walked into our local Barnes and Noble because I had already heard my book was spotted on shelves there by friends. We have other stores in town who are also going…
When the dream’s big enough, the facts don’t matter
Several years ago, my husband bought me a laptop and, ever so romantically said, “Here, now go write something.” And, being the ever obedient wife, I did. Months later. I’d started reading Kristen Billerbeck‘s Ashley Stockingdale books because (are you ready for this?) I liked the covers. A voracious reader, I’d never picked up Christian…
Interesting Discussion on Layoffs at Thomas Nelson
Michael Hyatt, president and CEO or Thomas Nelson, talks about layoffs at their company.
I’m Published!
When I arrived home on Friday, after picking my daughter up from ballet, my husband waved away my efforts to start getting hungry kids fed, took my hand and led me to the front door. Like Vanna, only in a macho way, he gestured to some boxes that had arrived UPS. They were the author…
