Pub Day, Challenge Extension, and a Quiz!
Today is THE day! FROM HERE TO HOME has been released and readers are stampeding into bookstores in a white heat, wrestling one another to grab hold of the hot-off-the-presses copies!
As you can see, I have a rich fantasy life. That's why I write.
In reality, today has begun like most others for me. I got up this morning and did my usual things - made coffee, fed the cat, did some dishes, prayed and journaled, checked in on social media, etc. And, of course, today I will spend several hours writing.
It reminds me of an old Native American proverb I heard somewhere. "Before spiritual enlightenment, you must cut wood and carry water. After spiritual enlightenment, you must cut wood and carry water."
Translation; no matter what is going on in your life, you must attend to the ordinary tasks of living.
Still, cat feeding and dish washing aside, it is an exciting day for me! I've been getting lots of lovely messages from readers who have already gotten their books or are going to bookstores right now. Reading their notes has definitely put a smile on my face. After all, I'm nowhere without readers.
That's why I want to thank everybody who has added FROM HERE TO HOME to their bookshelves so far. I know we didn't get to the 1,000 mark that would let me unlock the first two chapters of FROM HERE TO HOME, but it was a valiant effort! In appreciation, I've decided to extend the challenge for one more week, until April 5th. We can do it!
Also, I want to share a little quiz that my publisher created about me and my books. No prize for getting all the correct answers, but it's kind of a fun thing to do. Enjoy! http://bit.ly/1Rp1AHo
