Hello! I came across your blog while researching for a course that I am taking. Being an avid reader, I am always looking to add on to my ‘To Be Read’ list. Not only will I be following your blog for my course research, but for my leisure reading as well. I can already tell that my list will be growing at a rapid pace! Looking forward to The Bakery Romance Series. Lord’s blessings to you.
Hi Pauline!
It’s so good to meet you! I’m glad that you left your comment on my blog! Just curious, what kind of course are you taking? Is it a writing course, or a course about fiction? Just wondering is all!
I hope you like the Bakery Romance Series! I loved writing Raspberry Kisses and I’m eagerly working on the second book in the series which will be released in 2015!
Hi Cecelia! Thank you so much for the reply and welcome! The course I am taking is in professional blogging thru New York Institute of Art and Design. Originally, I wanted to blog about the real possibility of my mid-life career change (I’m in my late 40’s) but it turned out my employer came out of bankruptcy. Determined to finish the course, I restructured my thinking and asked Our Heavenly Father what the new blog content should be. He reminded me of how frustrated I get by the lack of faith-based and / or family-friendly entertainment in my area of northern New Jersey. So, I let that sink in for a while and decided to blog in support of faith-based / family-based entertainment and to also begin a micro ministry. Am now redoing the blog which I need to complete prior to July 2015. Sounds like a lot of time, but is still a challenge! I plan to support not only fiction, but some non-fiction, along with movies, and music as well. Thank you for you interest! Lord’s blessing to you!
Wow! That sounds inspiring! When your blog is up and running, please let me know so that I can stop by for a visit!
