A Full Dance Card

With the end of May soon approaching, I find my 'dance card filling' as a dear friend said recently. Today I finished my Apprentice writing course with Christian Writers Guild after two years and 50 lessons. I'm so thankful and excited that I was accepted into the Craftsman Advanced fiction writing course, starting in November. Lots of fun, excitement, and learning ahead of me.

I still continue to write for Home School Enrichment magazine. I've been writing a unit study column for them for three and a half years. Even though I have resigned from homeschooling, for now I will continue to write for them.

Last week I started writing a new Christian historical romance novel set in Kansas in 1875. This is a fun mail-order-bride book with lots of action, fun, and excitement. I think a novel is a continual process. I will soon start work on some more editing of my other novel. The key is learning how to balance everything as my dance card fills. I praise God for the opportunity to finally be writing full time. It's always been my desire and dream.

  1. I love mail order bride books! My story is also set in 1875. Perhaps we should compare notes on life in the US and Australia, during those exciting days.

Thank you for stopping by for a visit. I would love to hear from you. Please keep in mind Psalm 19:14 as you post your comments. "Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer."
