Last week, I grabbed a fish hook on a writing opportunity. Sara Horn is currently finishing up a book called: GOD Strong: A Spiritual Survival Guide for Military Wives (Zondervan).

Sorry, I haven’t been around much. Was pretty sick last week, most of the week. Then Friday my agent and I chit-chatted via phone and came up with a game plan. She wants me to write some historicals to submit, to which I’ve gotten right to doing. Tell ya what, it was hard at first [...]

It has been a long time since I said anything on my blog about my writing progress. So, I’ll do my best to tell you in a shortened version. (Yeah, right.) Been working diligently on crits for my new CP’s book. I kinda got waylaid this weekend cause hubby had two classes he needed to [...]
