This past Thursday I left for Nashville to go to the annual ACFW (American Christian Fiction Writers) conference. It was a busy four days, but I learned a lot — most of it not writing related (more about that in a future post). I slept well, even took a nap when I got home, but I’m still tired.

Health wise, nothing much has changed. I saw the ENT last week, and he clued me in to what the surgery would entail and a tentative recovery period. I had hoped to hear from my neurologist with a surgery date, but didn’t, so I put a call in to his office this morning. I need to push this a little because my son is getting married in November, and I want to be recovered by then.

Now to shameless self-promotion…

I have two books releasing in September. I’ll tell you about the first now, and when I get the cover for the other, I’ll share about that one.

The Falling for You boxed set releases 9/13. Here’s more about it:

OPERATION BACK-TO-SCHOOL by Elizabeth Maddrey
With both her girls in school Shannon Cross is looking forward to being back in the office. But how can Shannon fall for her daughter’s teacher without feeling that she’s betraying her deceased husband’s memory?

LEARNING FROM EXPERIENCE by Ginger Solomon
An old man and his will change everything for Lexi Ross. Can she survive the memories and learn from someone else’s experience or will she choose to make her own path?

THE OTHER BROTHER by Carole Towriss
Marc has contentedly spent his life in his brother’s shadow—until he meets Kendall. Can she convince him he’s special, when no one else thinks so? And can he convince her she’s already found what she’s searching for?

A HERO FOR HEATHER by Marion Ueckermann
Paxton Rathbone is desperate to make his way home. He has grown too accustomed to the disdain of mankind, which perhaps is why Heather Blume’s kindness penetrates his reserves. But there’s more to Heather’s actions than merely being the Good Samaritan—she has no doubt he’s a gentleman fallen far from grace.

It’s available for preorder at Amazon.

Happy reading,
