Happy Fall!
We finally have a reprieve from the sweltering sun here in south Arkansas. Who knows how long it will last? (I'm hoping for a while!)
I feel like I am finally making some progress in editing book 3 of the Shady Springs Series. There was a scene I had been particularly dreading, and I made it through with only a few tears. I am hoping to have this book in an editor's hands by January and for a release date next summer.
I also am prepping for Nanowrimo this November. The plan is to write the rough draft of book four in the month of November = 50,000 words in 4 weeks. It's not impossible. It's how I wrote the first draft to the third book, A Wisp of Grace, but it isn't easy. Please pray that I can build up the strength and stamina to meet this goal!

Our September guest coach in the book club was Dawn R. Ward. Normally, I only let book club members catch the replay, but her message was so good, it seems wrong not to share it! I'm including my newsletter friends as well. You can watch the replay through this YouTube link.
