One Writer's Mind: Progress

Wow. Is God good or what?

When I talk about good times, I have to remind myself that God is also good when times are tough. His nature doesn't change when my circumstances do!

But this past week has had some amazing developments.

It's official: I have received a contract from Barbour for the first of a three book set of historical romances set in Vermont. In the past week, I have written over 10,000 words for Prodigal Patriot, a love story set during the American Revolution, scheduled for publication next summer.

I also have received a contract for 30 short pieces for a nonfiction book for Barbour.

So God is blessing my decision on both fronts.

Thanks for your prayers and encouragement as I work on both these assignments.
