Rockin' It New Year's Eve Party Bash!

WELCOME TO THE PARTY!!!!!

Gonna Party Like It's 1999!  

We are ready to welcome 2019 in with a bang!


We've got party hats.


We've got KAZOOS!!!!


We've got champagne and mimosas and chocolates and pastries and FOUR DIFFERENT SHRIMP DISHES....


Very "Forrest Gump" friendly!!!!

We've got prizes....



And several authors are offering "books of choice" for the winner! We'll keep you posted throughout the day.

And we're asking questions of you. Our friends. Our neighbors. Our villagers. Writers AND readers.

What are some of your favorite quotes or Scripture verses? Here's our 2019 Bible Verse to guide us through the coming year:



Don't let our hearts be troubled and Do Not Be Afraid!

We want your quotes. Your thoughts...

They can be Biblical or Ben Franklin friendly... or Yoda or Churchill or Zig Ziglar or whomever you like, but what quotes do you keep on hand mentally or physically to move you along the path you've chosen? Because we know how tough life can be... we know that jobs can test our mettle, that life can wring us out and that bends in the road can be sudden and unexpected. Whether you're a writer or a reader or both, one thing we all know: Life can change in a heartbeat and we need to be ready to face its challenges

(Prizes help. Not to mess with the seriousness of the situation, but golly gee willikers, PRIZES HELP!!!) 

Which include four Amazon gift cards of $20.19 each, drawn randomly throughout the day...


And some really nice gifts:








And did I mention the end of the day Kindle????





Ruth Logan Herne shares her love of Ecclesiastes 3: "To everything there is a season and a time for every purpose under the heaven"... she says that one has gotten her through the best of times and the not-so-best of times.


But her snark-side likes this one, too... "Just Do It." Because she's never found comfort in talking a thing to death when just getting the job done and moving on works so well! :)

From Audra Harders:



Fear limits us. Conquering fear frees us.

We would be remiss not to seek God's help in this and every endeavor. The original Seekers formed their Yahoo group and this blog to reflect that faith, hope and love in a very competitive business!

From Audra Harders:




I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not be afraid. Those words bear repeating.

Fear is self-limiting and we want you to live 2019 without limits. Fearless. Bold. And filled with peace for if God is with us, then who can be against us?

Missy Tippens likes this quote from Arthur C. Clarke: The limits of the possible can only be defined by going beyond them into the impossible.

And this from Mindy Obenhaus:




Erica Vetsch sent this Winston Churchill quote along, and it's one that every writer could embrace:
“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”

And we see the spirit of continuity in another Scripture quote from Mindy... 




And from Glynna Kaye: The Lord himself will lead you and be with you.  He will not fail you or abandon you, so do not lose courage or be afraid.  (Deuteronomy 31:8)

From Winnie Griggs comes this thought:


Again, no fear.... Avoid fear. It's too easy to get caught in the snare!



We'd love for you to share your thoughts, those trials and those triumphs... share the goals and how we can tame fear and believe that we can do anything.

We know we can some days, but we want you to believe in yourself, your goals and your achievements on a day-by-day basis. Not just some days but most days.

God wants his people happy and so do we!

Okay, Debby's got party hats in the back corner by the karaoke machine!

Mary's mixing mimosas for everyone.

Ruthy's got the coffee corner up and running, and she's making FANCY COFFEE AND TEA drinks for anyone who steps up to the counter....

Breakfast spread is along the sun-drenched patio and those guys with the palm branches??? 

They're here to fan you as you relax along the wide beach expanse overlooking the Gulf waters.

And as we motor into our second year of being "Seekerville: The Journey Continues" and our eleventh year of being Seekerville, we want to celebrate our new birthday with old and new friends....

So to start the Birthday/New Year celebration, we're going to have our first Amazon card drawing at 10:00 AM EST...

Stop in, leave a comment and join the party!
