Good morning, everyone!
I am so much better today and able to function. Sometimes, that's all that's important.
Today, I'm shining the spotlight on Ruthe Logan Herne:

I have a full week ahead, bringing lots of things.
I finally started tackling the household chores that have been let go during my illnesses. Felt good to give the bathroom and laundry room a deep clean yesterday but boy am I feeling it this morning.
One of the things I need to do this week is to contact the Media dept. at Fort Polk. I finally figured out what the internal struggle is of my hero (as well as a bit of enlightenment on the heroine's issues) In able to approach my hero's growth, I need to know if the scenario I have in mind for him, what has caused his struggle, is valid. When it comes to the military stuff, I'm trying not to leave anything to chance.
Last week, I sent off about eighteen requests for info from the authors in the Something Blue anthology releasing May 17th. I've heard back from three so far. I'd hoped to start shining the spotlight on those authors this week, running the spotlight on Tuesdays and Wednesdays until I had spotlighted all of the authors. One author I did hear back from was Shirley Jump. I've known Shirley for years. We each ran workshops back in our AOL days almost twenty years ago! She is happy to join us however, she is in the midst of wedding stuff and asked if I could put her last. I am happy to accomodate!
In the mean time, I did pick up a new Love Inspired on Saturday and will be using that tomorrow.
As to my day job as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator (only for a few more months), the company will release a new catalog and line of products to the public on May 3rd. That means lots of prep work for promotion and project making between now and then.
The kanban board didn't get completed last week so you'll see that on the list. I also didn't get to sprint every day but I did spend time making notes on the issue I mentioned above.
Good morning, everyone!
I feel so honored to shine the spotlight on Parris Afton Bonds today. Though we've not met in person, (thanks to Covid when we were supposed to speak at the Ozarks Creative Writer's Conference), we have spoken through email and messages and I consider her a dear friend in this crazy world of publishing. I'll also be reviewing her new book - Reluctant Rebel.
PARRIS AFTON BONDS is the mother
of five sons and the author of more than fifty published novels. She is co-founder and first vice president of
Romance Writers of America, as well as, cofounder of Southwest Writers Workshop.
Declared by ABC’s NIGHTLINE as one of three best-selling authors of romantic fiction, the New York Times best seller Parris Afton Bonds has been featured in major newspapers and magazines, as well as, published in more than a dozen languages.
The Parris Award was established in her name by the Southwest Writers Workshop to honor a published writer who has given outstandingly of time and talent to other writers. Prestigious recipients of the Parris Award include Tony Hillerman and the Pulitzer nominee Norman Zollinger.
She donates spare time teaching creative writing to both grade school children and female inmates, whom she considers her captive audiences.
Good afternoon, everyone!
Coming in late simply because I got sidetracked.
As I told you in THIS POST, I took Sarra Cannon's HB90 course. I still have three days left of the course. I have spent a good portion of the past three days getting my social media calendar put together. I didn't feel I could effectively work the HB90 Q2 kanban board if I didn't have my social media road map. That planner is finally in order. What does that mean?
Having the SM planner completed means I now know what blog posts and/ or videos and the coordinating projects figured out and know what I need to do.
