Getting together with friends is always the best part of the conference Hung out with my amazing critique partners, Lorna Seilstad and Shannon Vannatter.

My ACFW Conference To-Do List
It’s hard to believe in just two days I’ll be heading to Dallas. It’s an exciting time and a nerve-wracking time. I can’t wait to see all my friends again: my fellow bloggers from Inkspirational Messages, my critique partners, Shannon Vannatter and Lorna Seilstad, and all the other authors I’ve friended thanks to the Internet. And, of course, I’ll make …

Novel Anticipation – September 2012, Part 2
I’m still awaiting the arrival of the three books from Novel Recommendation, Part 1 and now I’ve got three more to add. For a reader, that’s a nice problem to have.

Novel Recommendation – September 2012, Part 1
September is typically a crazy month for me. The kids go back to school, my husband has two conferences, I have one conference, we celebrate a handful of birthdays and anniversaries… Somewhere in there, I have to find time to read as so many good books are coming out. So many, in fact, that I need two weeks to talk …

ACFW Conference Prep
Did you know that the ACFW Conference is in less than a month? That realization struck me a few days ago as I considered all I have left to do before the conference. I think my head’s still spinning. Since then, I ordered new business cards that reflect the same feel of my Website, but I have a daunting list …
Savoring Love’s Reckoning
Welcome to the inaugural Book Talk Tuesday! I’m so glad you’ve stopped by today. Hopefully, we’ll visit on a weekly basis. I can’t think of a better way to jump start Book Talk Tuesday than by recommending Love’s Reckoning (Revell Books, 432 pages, September scheduled release), an historical romance written by one of my all-time favorite authors, Laura Frantz. To pique your …
