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…

David,
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.

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.
