Not sure if she's keeping them going or not. She's published several books since that time. Google and see what you find.<br /><br />There may be others--but I'm drawing a blank.Bonnie Grovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11377519561074174038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6360410252358941163.post-44944854373049214812013-09-29T06:38:54.274-07:002013-09-29T06:38:54.274-07:00I sat around a lunch table with Christian writers ...I sat around a lunch table with Christian writers at the Inscribe conference yesterday. We were talking self promotion on social media. When I repeated the essence of your post here it was like a curtain lifted and revealed beautiful relief and assurance all over their faces. One suggested that a character from our books should put up the facebook page/twitter/etc. and interact with his or her public. We all liked this idea. Do you know of any examples of this happening?Henrietta Frankenseenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6360410252358941163.post-88719113780106048732013-09-27T12:10:28.471-07:002013-09-27T12:10:28.471-07:00This was interesting.

For years, probably from early adolescence on through my twenties I was torn between wanting to meet my favourite authors (in a general, if you could invite anyone, living or dead, to dinner kind of sense) and being terribly aware that I had nothing to say to them and nothing to ask them. It made me sad. <br />I don't feel that way these days. I could talk writing for hours. But this helped me understand that feeling, and myself, better. Thanks. <br />I'm very much looking forward to hearing more too.
