I promised I'd post it and here it is, better late than never! :)This is the cover of my trade fiction book coming from Barbour in December 2006--PROMISE ME ALWAYS. I'm so excited about this Pinky Promise Sisterhood series. This initial book has been in my heart for a very long time, even though it's gone through a metamorphosis of sorts over the years. It will be nice to finally see it in print.

Today, my friend, Joyce Griffin and I hosted the ladies luncheon at church. Joyce is so talented! And nobody brought a camera!! I just can't believe we didn't get a picture of the beautiful table she set. (I helped with the actual labor, but I stayed out of the way and let her work her decorating magic.) Our theme was Arkansas. I'd suggested back in September when we signed up for April that we use that theme and I'd give every one a free book as part of the deal. Well, Joyce took the theme and ran with it! She made placemats with miscellaneous Arkansas facts and pictures. (This blog even made it onto the placemat!) They looked professionally done. It was all just beautiful and everyone seemed to have a good time.

Back to my previously scheduled month of isolation. (See last entry)

Peace and Joy to you all!
