My first inspirational romance was released in 2005, but I have since begun working on several projects that make my eyes swim from one day to the next, especially if one wants to include promoting and marketing.
In April 2008 my historical romance, (see the picture below) FLAME FROM WITHIN (time period 1864) will be released through Vintage Romance Publishing. I couldn't be more excited! I have just completed the sequel and am in process of finding the publisher for that one where the time period is set around 1878.
My three part devotional series:
I See God in the Simple Things, I See God in the Thorns n Thistles, and I See God on That Narrow Road will be published through the new Vintage Spirit Line beginning in 2009. Be sure to watch for them.

Hi shirley,
I'm also doing my editing and deciding what to keep in, take out and add. I'm starting to see some day light with it. I've already got the query letter done, synopsis and 80% of the book proposal.
I'm thinking seriously making it two books. The first about my husband and the sequel about my daughter. They both died from alcoholism.
I'm going to try a new publisher. We'll see.
