27 July 2010



Hello all,
We found another border collie. His name is Frank. You know... Old blue eyes. In his case - one blue eye, one brown eye. :o) We brought him home on the 25th.
As I've been reading the e-mail loop for the ACFW conference, I keep seeing the suggestion to have a business card to hand to folks I want to network with. So..... I went to http://www.vistaprint.com/ and ordered a set of plain business cards. They will have my: Name - The name of my manuscript - A Bible verse - My E-mail address and my phone number on them. I feel a little silly. Who has business cards if they aren't in a business? BUT - I am in the business of writing. Not in the sense that I know a thing about the publishing industry. Rather in the sense, I am a writer. (No matter what my sister thinks! *haha*)
I feel almost overloaded with the information coming at me. I'm not going to have a one sheet made. I feel it's sort of pointless for me as I'm not published. A one sheet seems more for a published author/writer. If I need a cheat sheet for an interview, I can take my notes with me. But - I plan to know everything I want to say about my story. (Barring stage fright.) I'll practice alot before hand.
Are this domestic dreamer's dream going to come true? I hope so..... one day.
I'm off to prepare another chapter for the critique group.
Smile and keep dreaming.
