I am BACK!

Blogging and writing have taken the back burner these past couple of months. With a huge transition as we moved a family of six to a new city, as well as a baby who doesn't care for sleep in the middle of the night, something had to give to keep this mama sane! My hiatus was more than that though.
I was absolutely spiritually dry.
I expected soooo much of myself, without relying the teensiest bit on God. I know this is the case because during these past two months I have wrestled with so much negative self-talk and keeping my eye on EVERYTHING else around me besides Christ. So when I would sit down to write, I had nothing. Because I had dedicated writing to God in the first place, it makes sense that cutting myself off from Him would indeed bankrupt the gift I was trying to make my own!

As the new year trucks on, I have found my center once more, relying completely on Him who loves me and cares for me, knowing I am worthless without Him. Funny how quickly my writing picked up once I gave Him the time of day!

Today, I am blessed to continue this writing journey, as well as cheer on my fellow writers who are a few steps ahead of me in this publishing process. One of my friends from a crit group I was in a couple of years ago, had her first novel published this month! It is so exciting to me, because I saw her work before it was contracted, and I will have to say, it was amazing then too!
So if you want to check out a great story, written by a very talented lady go to:

I hope to read it and review it in the near future!
