    Hi Lilie,
    I’ve read about you and your husband…I’m so impressed with your love story. I wish I will also have a wonderful marriage, just like you.
    Nice to know you…

    I have been very blessed with my husband, but commitment on both parts is also very important. I hope that you have the wonderful marriage you want.

    Keep up the good efforts, my friend :)

    Georganna,
    Yes, I”m swamped planning my book launch party and blog book tour … and darn those clients—they want stuff from me, too. :-) I’d better get back to posting before my readers disappear. I will be getting back on a regular schedule. I promise.

    Hi Liillie! I wish I was going to be in San Antonio (one of my favorite cities) but I am awfully glad that I am a stop on your blog tour! Whoo hoo! I look forward to hearing all about the book signing and will be sure to spread the word. Again, congratulations!

    I have written a couple of Christian books (actually manuscripts) but never did get them published. I came close a couple of times but it seems pretty difficult to get published if you do not have a built in audience as it is a business and they are also interested in their bottom line.

    Real nice site you have here.

    • Lillie says:

      George,
      It’s really hard to get Christian books published. Most Christian publishers require an agent or find manuscripts through a paid listing service. Sometimes authors of Christian books bypass the Christian publishers and bookstores and self-publish or publish with companies that aren’t specifically Christian. My clients, the Taylors, published with a small publisher and sell most of their books when they speak at churches.

    Hi Lillie,

    I found this type of post interesting. I’ve never tried it, but may after seeing the success you’re having.

    About your design, I really like the listings for your writings in the right sidebar. It makes everything easy to find.

    Warmly,

      Linda,
      I’m experimenting with this—right now I have it as a sticky post at the top of the blog but I may end up with a shorter announcement and link to a longer welcome. I’m trying to make it easy for new visitors to find their way around here.
