This is the day (and some hot deals to go with it!)

Rel Mollet Books, Family

Happy Friday! I wrote 120 pages this week, got my characters through an Alaskan blizzard, dropped a few juicy truthlets, had them meet a few old friends (I love that part—suddenly a character appears that totally makes sense, but we’ve completely forgotten until now), gave them a great kiss, and now brought them to the precipice of danger…

And there they are going to sit until next week.

The secret to story magic

Rel Mollet Books, Good Stuff, On Writing

My house is quiet once again. Alas, all my people have gone back north, which means that in the silence, my characters have started to chatter, getting ready to throw themselves out of my brain/heart and onto the page.

I am not unaware of how blessed I am to have this job—I get to make up awesome people,

That time we almost sank…

Rel Mollet Books, Family

Hello from the boat! We got Big Red working this weekend, and took her out for a fun maiden voyage.

Actually, that’s a lie. My husband took her out for a maiden voyage in February.

And nearly sank the poor girl.

It wasn’t his fault. Really. Apparently some plug inside the boat broke loose on the long ride home from the previous owner,

A blast from the past!

Happy Friday!

Just me, popping in with a quick book suggestion for you…

How about the crazy story of a single gal who goes to Russia as a missionary for a year?

Yep, my “based-on-fact-but-not-a-memoir” novel hit the shelves today! It’s still at the low, low preorder price ($4.99) for a couple days,

And now for something different…

Rel Mollet Books, Family, Thoughts on God

I’m just going to take this week and tell you how grateful I am for your willingness to read my newsletters, pick up my books, send me beautiful letters, and generally help spread the good word about my stories.

Or maybe I should say our stories because I loooove the emails I get from readers who give me fantastic ideas for future stories.

Just another Tuesday?

Rel Mollet Books, Family, On Writing

It’s not Tuesday.

You probably know this.

However, I woke up today and thought…What? I missed ANOTHER Tuesday? (In my defense, I did manage to hit the last two Tuesdays, but things are falling apart quickly without my assistant! She comes back in two weeks, so we’re hangin’ on by our tootsies,

Minds on Fire! 🔥

Rel Mollet Books, Family, Food and Drink, On Writing

Just dropping a quick post today—I’m spending time with five brilliant authors this week whom I affectionately call “The Minds.”  It’s a group of super brilliant women. (I’m still trying to figure out why I’m included… Oh, wait, I remember now. It’s because I’m in Florida  and I feed them. Just kidding—they cook too! )

Anyway,

Look, she did it again!

Rel Mollet Book Excerpts, Books, Family

I can’t believe it. Not only is it 70° out in Florida, but I managed to get another note out on Tuesday! (You have no idea what a feat this is for me, as my VA is still on maternity leave, and I am NOT TECHNICALLY SAVVY). IYKYK. (Ahem, last week’s free book email.) Anyway,
