All-Tuckered Out Friday

What great comments on this Wednesday’s blog about grief! I appreciate you readers so much.

Today, I’m taking a little break. The cool thing is that I’m now the West Virginia ACFW area coordinator! I’m very excited about this, but I’ve been busy setting up our group page. 

If you’re around WV and you’re interested in conferences going on in the state, please check my FB author page frequently. I plan to post dates/locales to that page as well (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Heather-Day-Gilbert/255797467834948).

Also, I’ve started writing another book as I’m waiting to hear back from publishers on my Viking novel. So my brain is in creative-writer mode. Many of you know exactly what I’m talking about.

And my hubby still doesn’t have a job and I’m still homeschooling…so it’s just a little overwhelming right now. (Pray for me if you think about it! I know many of you already are!)

So I’m thinking I’ll reduce my blogging schedule to two days a week. We’ll shoot for Mondays and Fridays. I’m not too strict about my topic scheduling right now, so let’s just say each post will be something about:

1) Writing life
2) Marriage
3) Homeschooling/Parenting
4) West Virginia/Appalachian life
5) Vikings
6) Book Reviews
7) Guest Author Interview/Posts

And sometimes I might throw in those Classy Quotes, because, hey, I love to find moving quotes and share them with you!

You all are just great! 

And now I’m off to have a cup of coffee. We can only hope it’s decaf at this time of the evening…

****If we could just chillax and talk, what kind of coffee/tea would you order? I think I could go for a raspberry latte!****

–Heather

    Probably a non-fat cinnamon Dolce. Love anything cinnamon! 🙂 Praying for peace and a job soon, friend! Hugs!

    Ooh, Lindsay, haven't tried that one! And Jessica…non-fat? Doesn't that just take all the fun out of those fancy drinks? Hee. Thanks for the prayers and sweet thoughts, friends!

    Yay for starting a new book! I will send up a prayer for you. What would I order? Earl Grey Tea Latte. Yum!

    I have to update this post! My husband just landed a job today! How wonderful! I know it's because many of you were praying! God bless you!

    Coffee: I love me some Italian Roast – anything tall, dark, and handsome. In a coffee cup, that is! Tea: I like to make my own home-grown home-brews. I like ginger, lemon, and elderberry (berries OR flowers) together, and not just when I have a cold. And I love rose-hip, rosemary, and lavender together, and not just when I have a headache. And of course, chocolate mint. Love them funky mints.I think cutting down on the blogging is the new pink. A job. Yes. He's toast, I tell you, TOAST!

    Becky–yes, toast! In a good way!And that lavender/rose-hip/rosemary tea sounds great. Do they call that a "tisane"–what Hercules Poirot is always drinking in the Agatha Christie novels?

    I'm a big lover of tea. My current flavor of choice is Hibiscus Tea…it's yummy. Although I'm WV born, I live in Charlotte now, otherwise I'd be signing up for the conferences. Prayers for your husband to find a job. Congrats on the new book!

    Consider yourself on my prayer list! Though I'm delighted to see there's one less thing to pray about. Yay!

Hi, I’m Heather…

I write contemporary mysteries and Viking historicals. Born and brought up in the mountains of West Virginia, I enjoy writing about small towns, family relationships, and women who aren't afraid to protect those they love. Read More…

Had a wonderful time this weekend speaking on an a Had a wonderful time this weekend speaking on an author panel @bjuedu with authors Jamie Langston Turner and Emily Golus (@worldofvindor) with @inkwellmagazine. What a wealth of experience these talented authors brought to the table for the guests and writers who attended! Also met author @louannkeisereditor, who was a delight to speak with. Then got to hang out with my lifelong friend @rachelcohee and her husband and daughter and brunch @grandbohemianlodgegreenville at the Between the Trees restaurant. Then capped things off at a bookstore that was hopping! What a much-needed time of relaxation with my husband, who graciously schleps my book boxes and takes event photos for me!📚#authorlife #wvauthor
