More blessings! |
A huge blessing this year was having Walnut Springs Press accept Defenders of the Covenant for publication. A lifelong dream come true! I can't wait to hold the book in my hands soon, and to share it with all of you.
I got to present at LTUE at BYU and at CONduit in Salt Lake this year. Both a huge thrill for me. I got to sit on panels with David Farland and other illustrious authors I've looked up to for a long time. I had a blast doing it too! And the best part is, I'll get to do it again next year.
This year, I wrote a novella, "Refuge," a short story, "Spirits Bright" (a Christmas story), and 240+ pages of a novel, "Shattered Skies." That's great output for me. I did lots of revising and critiquing too. That's the best writing blessing of all--the actual creation!
And then there is YOU. This writing community is such a blessing to me. You helped me celebrate my joys and drown my sorrows. You encouraged me in my goals and kept me going when I wanted to quit. Thank you!
What writing-related blessings are you thankful for this year?
P.S. I'm traveling for the holiday, so I won't be blogging again until next week. I hope you all have a safe and wonderful Thanksgiving (those celebrating it, anyway).

Thankful for a day job that pays the bills, allowing me not to stress about the writing gig when things aren't moving as fast as I'd like. ;-)

Canda, I know what you mean. I'm so thankful for that too.
Todd, that's a huge blessing. I know I am so grateful that my husband makes a good living so that I have been able to stay home with my kids and pursue my writing dreams.
Thanks for stopping by, everybody! Happy Thanksgiving!
You have had a wonderful year, Angie! I've been grateful to enjoy several conferences, write a new novel, and start querying another. It's been a good year!
I'm so grateful that I have this outlet to create. It's a talent the Lord has given me to help me through and I am so grateful for that.
Angie - I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
