Just being alive, my family, my dogs--they need me, but I also need them to help me through tough times. I am quickly losing faith in people in general with all the hate and selfish behavior displayed all over the television. But then I remember t...
This is something I have been thinking about lately because of all the hate that seems to be brewing here in America. I just don't understand why people can't respect other people's beliefs. It really is mind boggling to me. I love all the answers...

Hi Judith,
Research is my favorite part of writing. It inspires me because I usually come across some interesting piece of information. Thanks for reading my blog post.
Wow, Kelley, this is interesting! I love to research so you caught me here.
Love the excerpt too. Very nice!

Sounds like you've been busy. Hope you had a great time and made some sales. I'm anxious to get back to Havasu. Only five more weeks. Take care and keep sending these great posts of what you're doing with your writing. It's very motivating. Sharon

Lynda Coker said… - Hi Kelley,
Where did 2008 go? I guess when you’re busy time really does fly because mine has certainly taken wing.
WRDF launched in February of 2008 and its membership has grown steadily. I hope that means we are doing something right for our members.
We have some fabulously talented writers among us. I would encourage you to take a little time to visit a couple new pages each week. The photos, videos, blurbs, excerpts, bios, blogs, graphics, and I could go on and on, are super fun and so interesting. No one has an excuse to be bored on this site with so much to read and see.
I hope you’ve kept up with WRDF’S newest features. All are great promotional opportunities for writers and great fun for our readers.
The Tipping Point Workshops (TTP WORKSHOP TAB),
The Bookmark giveaway page (BOOKMARK TAB)
The Free reads page (FREE READS TAB).
Our book discussion club, LOST IN A GOOD BOOK, is going strong. We’ve had good participation and if you haven’t kept up with some of our adventurous discussion comments, you’ve missed the action.
We’ve also launched a new online newsletter, WRDF Online. Be sure to open and read your copy when it comes. You never know what you might be missing.
Lastly, you’ll notice a new WRDFCalendar Tab on your page. What a nice way to keep all our members notified of current and up-coming events. You’ll notice that Fridays are Guest blog days at Between the Lines. Why not take a moment, check the calendar, and reserve a couple of spots for yourself during 2009. You can request your dates at: promo@lyndacoker.com
Thank you for spending time with us. Stay safe and well,
Lynda

Christine London said… - Awe...*blush* Thanks. I really did have a good time. More importantly, I think the readers did. It's a great way to build name recognition and that all important 'viral promotions'. Stay in touch.
Cheers,
Christine

St. Columba--Druid or Monk?

I based this story on an actual Irish warlord and many of the minor characters are based on real people. One of those real people is the famous monk, St. Columba, who was a close friend of this Irish king and though a minor character, St. Columba (Columcille) played an important role in the story. Throughout my story and through the… Continue

It started out as a hot day, much hotter then it should be in Flagstaff, AZ this time of year, but it was much cooler than the 118 degree weather we left back home in Lake Havasu. I enjoy doing book signings at these Celtic festivals, especially watching the… Continue
