At this a great roar went up, those of the yeomen who sat upon the grass rolling over and over and shouting with laughter, for never before had they seen their master so miss his mark; but Robin flung his bow upon the ground with vexation. “Now, out upon it!” cried he. “That shaft had an ill feather to it, for I felt it as it left my fingers. Give me a clean arrow, and I will engage to split the wand with it.”

“If you have not lived for God and have cared nothing of what the Scriptures say, maybe ’tis because you said the words only—but didn’t truly believe in your heart. Aye, ’tis with our mouths that we can tell others we believe, but ’tis with the heart that man believes unto righteousness. It requires repentance—changing our minds to agree with God. Is this what you believe?”
On History and Friendship | 3-Month Tour Posts at Tangled Up in Writing and Honey Rock Hills
With being on vacation, I’m falling behind in sharing my 3-month tour bloggers! But the last two July posts were pretty unique.
First, the historical post about WHY “The Secret Slipper” HAD to be historical. Have you ever considered why a certain idea HAS to be in a certain era? It’s really fascinating to think about!! I’d love to hear your spin-offs of why _______ story had to be told in ________ era.

Another belated July 3-month-tour post. One of the things I love including in my books is friendship. Strong friends. Godly friends. Those that encourage ME to be a better friend. As I got to thinking about the friendships I portrayed in my books, I realized that the reason I can portray them is because I’ve experienced them. I’ve had some friends stick with me through some pretty tough situations–friends who have encouraged me in my walk with God, uplifted me, rebuked me, prayed for me, and unconditionally loved me. If you have a friend like that, thank them today for being a godly friend!

“I just finished my first complete draft of ‘Protecting the Poor!’ I am so excited, but I also realize that there is still a lot of work to be done! I’m hoping to polish up this draft in the next week or two and send it off to some beta readers. Then, Lord willing in December I’ll have some steady writing time again where I can finalize the edits and get it ready for publication!! It’s been a long eight months waiting for the draft to reach a solid foundation, so I’m very, very grateful to be at this point right now!”
25 Days!
Where am I today, 25 days from publication? Well, “Protecting the Poor” is currently being read by my final editor (Mom). Then, I need to brush up the final copy, format it, submit it to be printed, and get the week-long release tour scheduled (speaking of, if you’d like to be a part, I still have some openings!). What’s on your to-do list for this month?
It’s Release Month! | Final month of the 3-month tour
These blogs will all have another special post this month–this time, featuring the book we’ve all been waiting for! So be sure to keep up on my blog or just sign up for their blogs to see what comes up! I’ll be giving sneak-peeks, sharing historical tidbits (which will probably have some sneak-peeks as well) and host several giveaways!
Have you added “Protecting the Poor” to your Goodreads’ list yet?
