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,
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,
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.
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,
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,
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,
I’m about ready to dive into edits for my third Alaska Air One Rescue book. It’s a fantastic story about the chopper pilot for AAOR (Moose) and a special someone who needs his help.
But before we get into that, I have some big news… The Queen of Ankeny paid me a visit this week.
First off, I just have to say, I know it’s Wednesday. And last week, I said I was going to send out newsletters on Tuesday. Well, that’s proving to be a little bit harder than I expected because… Let me introduce you to my sweet new granddaughter!
She was born on Jan 25th,
Posting on a Tuesday today! I promise I have a good reason for it (pictures to come next week), but let’s just say that a certain package of joy and goodness showed up in the world, and I had to drop everything and get on a plane. Stay tuned for those adorable pictures in the next newsletter!
So, I’ve been in Florida for two weeks now and guess what? I’ve only seen the sun twice! Went to the beach twice too, but the second time I had to wear a stocking cap because it was unexpectedly cold. I’m not sure, but I think the cold has followed me.
On a positive note,
