Quotes I Love-Writer Workshop

December 11, 2014

This weeks for the writers workshop I am going to write about number 1 which is a quote I love. As some of you may know I post a quote every week because I love quotes and I love to share quotes that I love with other people. If you want to check those out you can click here and scroll through them. The one quote I have loved since I heard it is:
I love this quote because it is so true. I first saw this quote after I had my daughter and I struck me as true because I never thought I would be able to place my daughter for adoption. Like I always say when people ask me how I get through life “I don’t have an option but to keep going because I can’t just die”. You just have to put one foot in front of the other and know that in time things will pass.

Here are a few other quotes that I am loving right now:

Swept Away by Laura V Hilton and Cindy Loven

December 10, 2014

Swept Away by Laura V Hilton and Cindy Loven was another great book in the series. When I first started this book I didn’t like any of the characters but Sara Jane’s Grandma. After a few chapters in I really did love the characters. I think after a few chapters you got to see more of the characters and you get to know more about who they are so that helped. I didn’t like how Sara Jane in the beginning of the book acted like a stuck up brat but after a few chapters you get to see more of who she is. I have loved all the books in this series but one so I am so glad that this one ended up being another one that I love. If you love romance books written by Christian authors than I would recommend this one to you. I also would recommend any book in the Quilts Of Love series because they are all so amazing.

About The Book

Sara doesn’t think she wants love. But her grandmother has other plans.

Sara Jane Morgan is trying to balance teaching with caring for her ailing, stubborn grandmother. When school lets out for the summer, the plans are for Grandma to teach Sara Jane to quilt as they finish up the Appalachian Ballad quilt Grandma started as a teenager. But things don’t always go as planned.

Andrew Stevenson is hiding from his past—and his future. He works as a handyman to pay the bills, but his heart is as an artisan, designing homemade brooms. When Sara Jane’s grandmother hires him to renovate her home, sparks fly between Drew and his new employer’s granddaughter.

Still, it doesn’t take Sara Jane long to see Drew isn’t what he seems. Questions arise, and she starts researching him online. What she discovers could change her life—and her heart—forever.

“A thriller that grabs readers and doesn’t let go, skillfully twisting, turning, and manipulating its plot for maximum impact.” – Donovan, eBook Reviewer, Midwest Book Review

Evolved Publishing presents a gripping glimpse of the near future, in which a twisted serial killer finds power in a corrupt political culture.

When her 19-year-old son Jack miraculously recovers from a serious head trauma, Maggie is sure her luck has changed. But when she’s abducted by a shadow from her past – a phantom with dangerous sapphire eyes – it’s up to Jack and his younger brother Tom to unravel the mystery and save their mom from a deadly psychological battle.

The brothers seek help from their colorful great aunt, who exposes them to a world of nefarious family secrets, explosive government conspiracies, and a series of horrific murders. Together they must navigate a dark underworld full of political subterfuge and class warfare.

Yet as they search for their mother, Jack changes—raked by skull splitting headaches and weird visions. How exactly did he recover from his coma, and how does this tie into the psychopath who’s abducted their mother?

Will Jack and Tom save Maggie before her abductor reaches his shatter point? Does Jack have enough time left?

Roy L Smith-Quote Of The Week

December 2, 2014

This weeks quote is by Roy L Smith.

I have decided that I am going to have Christmas quotes for the next couple of weeks to get in the holiday spirit. It is always hard for me to get into the spirit of the holiday’s because of past experiences with the holiday but I am not getting into that here. I loved this because it is true if you don’t have the spirit of Christmas in your heart you will never find it under your tree.
