I will make a little confession here: Back when I was writing Here to Stay, I may have had a few moments of frustration. By which I mean there were days when I wanted to finally put to use …

The truth about the writing life (aka the post about Needtobreathe + a giveaway)
…because OF COURSE I was going to write a post about Needtobreathe eventually… Earlier this summer I saw my favorite band in concert. Twice.

I mean…the whole southern rock infused …

And just like that, a new author fave! Meet Hillary Manton Lodge (plus a giveaway)
A couple months back, awesome writing friend and one of the coolest Canadians I know—Rachel McMillan—told me I had to read a book called A Table by the Window.
