Today I want to welcome Carla Laureano to my blog. If you haven’t read Five Days in Skye, you are missing not only a great book, but the exquisite feeling that you are in Scotland. Skye to be exact. When I finished Carla’s book, traveling to Scotland went on my bucket list! A little about Five Days in Skye from …

The Call…or Rather the Email
Tonya Kuper had this great idea of creating a Blog Hop with the authors at The Seymour Agency to share how each of us received our call from either Mary Sue Seymour or Nichole Resciniti for representation. Click on the telephone and scroll down for a link to learn how my fellow agency mates received their call. I’m giving away two $10 Amazon …
Meet Jo Huddleston
I met Jo Huddleston on line a couple of years ago. We’ve never met face-to-face, but I hope to rectify that soon! Jo is a writer of awesome devotionals. A reviewer once wrote that they “offer spiritual tonic and hope” and I’ve found that to be true. But she’s decided to join the ranks of fiction writers and her wonderful …

When Do You Quit?
The Winner of Beth Vogt’s book, Wish You Were Here goes to Melissa Isaksen! I’ve been writing for years now. Not going to say how many, just suffice it to say, A LOT. And so far, I haven’t had a book published. I did have several short stories published in Woman’s World and a few articles in national publications, but …
The.Kitten.I’m.Not.Keeping.
This post first appeared on the MBT Ponderers Blog July 15, 2010 Summertime in Mississippi means hot temperatures and air so thick you can stir it with a spoon. Last Friday was no exception. By ten a.m., you could fry sausage on the sidewalk. Ignoring the heat, I drove to the local Dollar General to buy a couple of birthday …
