Persistence post prizes in Seekerville
My friend Ruth Kaufman is our guest in Seekerville Monday, May 10.
www.seekerville.blogspot.com
Ruth is talking about Persistence: Profits, Perils and Plans. From those leaving a comment, she's giving away a 20 minute "discuss your writing with confidence" session at a mutually agreed upon time during the RWA conference in Orlando. This includes pitching tips and suggestions for authors at all stages of their careers on how to best present projects to readers/friends/contacts.
I’m giving away a bag of chocolate covered turtles. What could be more fitting than that slow moving, hard-shelled icon of persistence? When we reach the finish line, we'll find it sweet indeed, just like this yummy candy.
For a chance to win either or both prizes, leave a comment with your e-mail address. Thanks!
Blessings, Janet

I have a title!
I'm very excited to have a title for my upcoming Steeple Hill Love Inspired Historical!!
Wanted: A Family
Pregnant widow Callie Mitchell and falsely accused ex-con Jacob “Jake” Smith, a bitter orphan searching for his birth mother, stand against the disapproving town when Callie turns her house into a home for unwed mothers.
The story will release March 15, 2011. I'll keep you posted as soon as I have a cover.
Blessings, Janet

Interview at Sherry Dyke's blog on Wednesday, March 3

Time flies, doesn't it? I can't believe March has slipped in under my radar. That means my deadline for Wanted: A Family, Love Inspired Historical, is one month closer. I'm making progress. And getting to know Callie and Jake. Not that you'll be surprised to hear it, but trouble is brewing in Peaceful, Indiana. :-)
If you enjoy my books, I hope you've gotten a chance to read The Substitute Bride, a mail-order bride story you won't want to miss. Ted and Elizabeth's story was such fun to write. I'm hearing from some readers that this is their favorite book so far.
Tomorrow, Wednesday, March 3, PST, I'm a guest at Sherry Dyke's blog. I enjoyed answering her interview questions. Stop by to see which scene in The Substitute Bride, on shelves now, was my favorite. Leave a comment on Sherry's blog along with your e-mail address for a chance to win a signed copy.
