    I was shocked and excited all at the same time when “Doc” Dennis Hensley announced my name as the winner of 1st place in the devotional category!  A couple of my new-found author friends at the conference also won in the category they entered.

    When “Doc” handed me my certificate, it was almost as if God said, “My child, this is confirmation you are on the right track. Keep on keeping on.” What a joyous affirmation. Praise the Lord! I also give credit to my hubby and daughter who patiently help critique my seemingly endless pieces and my writer friends! Thank you all!

  • AMAZING! Cedar Falls Writer’s Conference

    I am truly thankful for the opportunity to participate in the writer’s conference in Iowa this past week. I was privileged to travel with my newest writer-friend, Shelly Beach. She allowed me to probe her mind and brain for eight hours plus! My husband, Steve, suggested I limit my questioning; otherwise, she might send me back to Michigan on an airplane. Not true! We traveled home together much the same way we ventured out to the conference in Cedar Falls.

     

    Speakers included: Shelly Beach, Dennis Hensley, Tracy Groot, and Jolene Philo. The conference proved truly awesome and amazing! I’ll be sharing more on the conference in future blogs.

    This week will be my 1st out-of-state writer’s conference.  I’ll be traveling with author and speaker, Shelly Beach and Tracy Groot.  Cedar Falls, Iowa will be our destination which is about 8 hrs from Grand Rapids, MI.  I’m excited to learn and a bit nervous at the same time. 

    Dennis Hensley (author & teacher) will be our main speaker.  I’ve created my portfolio and am eager to share & receive critiquing from some of my recent writings with him and others.  My prayer is that I would be focused and retain what God has uniquely planned for me.   I am most grateful for this opportunity to attend!
