Deep in Revisions

Home » Life » Deep in Revisions

In: Life, Uncategorized, Writing on: May 30, 2012

This will be a quick post. I’m deep into revisions for my 2013 release, which will be set in an orphan home in central Pennsylvania in 1910. I have to say, it is hard to make myself work in the summer! It should be better next week when college son starts his summer class and his coaching job. Right now, I so enjoy him being home that it is hard to lock myself in my office! But thankfully I’m learning how I work best, so I’m interspersing writing time with breaks to work on household projects. And I’m allowing myself to work more slowly through these revisions than I ever have before, because I love this story and want to tell it well.

So how is your summer going so far?

"The Work of His Hands: a novelette”

Bea wants nothing more than to go to college and learn more about the world God created. Her mother even left money in trust for her to do so. She only wishes her father supported her dream. But when Papa gets into financial trouble in the young town of Fort Worth, Texas, Bea must decide what is more important—her education or her father's well-being. Can she trust the God of creation to make something beautiful of her life?”

Along with the story you’ll receive my newsletter updates as well.
