but I had to behave coz I had my halo gagging me. [For an ungagged interview, you'll have to wait until The Long and Short of It spot comes up -- I'm talking about The Marian Kind there. I'll let ya know ;-) ]

Contest Reminder

Brides and Bouquets 2007 is available for sale at Lulu and I just wanted to remind you of the contest I'm holding to say thank you to my readers.



Pastor Nathan awaits his version of Gideon’s fleece before asking his childhood love, Petra, to marry him. But a self-righteous businessman, savior of their village, asks her first! It’ll take an ugly town fountain, homicidal high heels and an irate Irishman to prove God really does work in mysterious ways.

Something Blue

Today I did the line edits for Something Blue, my inspirational novella coming out in By Grace's Brides and Bouquets 2007 in June. Closer to release date, I'll post the blurb and give you all a sneaky peak.

But for today I thought I'd let this beautifully rendered promise box do the talking. Maybe you have the whole living with balance thing whipped, but sometimes I need to remember the story of Mary & Martha. Yes, I'm a Martha -- throw my hands in the air and scream, "But there's so much to do!" Finding gifts like this promise box reminds me to sit back, shut up, and remember that God is still in control of the heavens.
