Here’s a big thank you to many who attended my online book release party yesterday! I was pleasantly surprised when 147 of you participated and entered the book drawing. You wrote such kind words of encouragement. Thank you! Sorry we ran out of salsa, and my assistant who was supposed to buy more cake ran off with it. Because so many of you decided to get involved, I decided to give away TWO books instead of one! I conducted a very scientific drawing. (-; I typed in all the participant names, printed them out, cut them into tiny pieces of paper, and placed them in a bowl. Then I asked my two daughters to each draw one piece of paper from the bowl. I’m pleased to announce that the two winners of my book drawing are . . . <drum roll> CASSIE ESSINGTON and FRANK SANSONE! Congratulations, Cassie and Frank,…

February 26, 2009 Dear Reader, Only thirty-six days left until the release of Fatal Illusions on March 31! I’ve experienced several blessings since Jan. 19, when many of you responded to my Count Your Blessings Book Giveaway and sent me inspiring stories about how God has been working in your lives. Thank you for sharing your heart-warming stories. God is indeed at work, and I think it’s always important to remember that fact. Then when the tough times come, memories of His goodness help us keep the right perspective. Pray for My Dad Speaking of tough times, my family has been going through the fire since Jan. 28, when doctors diagnosed my dad with brain cancer. Brain surgery this past Sunday, Feb. 22, in Milwaukee went without a hitch, and Dad has already been released and is doing surprisingly well. Praise God! Please pray for my dad and my family…
