Holiday Hopes & Wishes

As children, how many times did you utter the phrase "I hope I get..." at Christmas? I'm sure we all have, and maybe we done so even more recently and the hope was for bigger things than a toy or special gift. Here's my 2011 holiday version, what's yours?

Whether you've been reading my blog for a day or the nearly 3 years it's been up (can't believe it's been that long!) I sincerely hope you've learned things along the way that have made a difference in your publishing journey.

There are new things on the horizon for me in 2011 so I also hope you'll stay tuned. And if during those "so what are you up to" conversations during the holidays, you happen to speak to someone who's struggling with the book process, I humbly hope you'll send them my way.

Lastly, and certainly most importantly, I hope & pray that you all get these gifts during this holiday season and beyond- the peace, love, joy and contentment that came in a manger long ago. It's not going to be wrapped and under the tree, but it is free and bountiful. Blessings to you & your families now and in the New Year.

Good Writing & God Bless,

Yesterday's link & Happy New Year

Well, I wasn't planning to post today but strange happenings in blog land. I could see the link to my example as I composed yesterday and edited today, but it took me a few tries to get it to show up once I hit post. Didn't realize it wasn't there yesterday. Finally got it to work, hopefully it will stick.

Thank you for your patience through the tech stuff that happens now and then. Among my plans to continue to offer the best stuff I can in 09, is my intent to switch blog platforms in the future. Some people love Blogger and it does have many good features, but I think one can outgrow it, especially if you're using it for business. We'll see how things go.

To wrap things up and look forward to 2009, if you're reading this on the 31st, have a safe and fun-filled evening. If the New Year has arrived, may it be blessed and prosperous. I look forward to continue our journey together!

Good Writing & God Bless,
