So Close!
Just had to give an update on my book progress! I am working hard to get the final product out by the end of this month. Very soon it will be available for ordering online and ready to ship as soon as someone places an order. Soon after that it will be available in a digital form for Kindle as well. Right now I am having the interior design formatted and finished. The cover art is getting a few final tweaks to make it ready for publication. The manuscript is fully edited and I have had several people read it through and give me some final comments and advice, which I really appreciated. Everyone who has read it so far, has given me a ton of positive feedback on it. I cannot wait to have the first copy in my hands and I hope you all enjoy the final product! Stay tuned for more updates! God Bless!...
Read MoreNew Deadline!

It feels amazing to see this project coming together and I am already really excited to have the final product in my...

I am actually enjoying this stage in the writing process so much more than I thought. As I polish and prepare each chapter before sending it off to my editor, I enjoy going over those words again, making the story richer, better. Then, when I receive the chapters back I am often amazed by how she helps me see a simpler or cleaner way of saying something. I am now learning so much about grammar and punctuation, which only helps make my writing better and crisper. Right now she just sent back chapter 10 and I’m actually eager to make the changes, wrestle with the best way to say what I want to say and clean it up. I feel so much better about each chapter after its been edited and revised. I am still looking at Summer of this year for publishing the book, which is extremely exciting. As always, keep me and my writing project in your prayers! ...
