Dear Valerie,

I'm glad that we have something in common, and I believe that it's probably our faith in God, and the fact that we know that He is there for us always. We have so much power right at our fingertips, but so many of us fail to tap into that power. How is it that we are able to accomplish such amazing feats? How is it that I was able to overcome so many tragedies in my life and find the inner strength to write two inspirational books about my faith in less than a year, that tell of my love for God and for our Savior Jesus Christ? There is only one answer for the miracles that I have been given, and that is the Love and Power of God!

I pray that you, and more people like you and me realize that God will grant us everything we ask for, if we ask for things so that we can bring honor, glory, and praise to God the Father.

This world would be a much better place if there were more true believers in God's love for us, and if people everywhere would focus more on God and Jesus Christ, and less on having their own needs met.

Thank you for visiting my website. I look forward to hearing what you thought of it.

May God Bless You.

Thanks Valerie,

Look at you with the cordless drill! We do have something in common, and it's not just writing and our love of the Lord. I'm still in pain from spending yesterday on my knees re-grouting my kitchen floor!

Thanks for checking out my website. I really appreciate it. I'm finding out that writing the books, although difficult, is actually much easier than trying to promote and sell them, and get my message across to anyone who will listen.

I'll be sure to check out your book "I must be in Heaven-A Promise Kept."

God Bless You.

Stephen

Hi Valerie,

Thanks for visiting my site. That's funny you wanted 12 children, too!
You've been blessed with children and grandchildren. We don't have any grandchildren yet. I'll go now to visit your site and check out your book. Good luck and hope you sell lots of books.

Blessings,
Diane

Hi, Valerie,

Thanks for accepting the invite, and for checking out my site. Best of luck to you...

Hi Anne, thanks for the comment and looking forward to getting to know you as well. I put out my life story a few months ago called, A Mothers Torment, www.amotherstorment.com which is about my son who was killed in 99 and of course my youngest son who was killed in a car crash two years ago. So the holidays are sometimes hard, but for the ones still left here, I do celebrate them now.

I didnt for a few years after losing Jeff but then I realized that he would not want me to grieve so much and so put up the tree. I'd always loved that time of year growing up. Of course then I lived in NH where the snow was covering the ground, and most of the houses had bright lights shining...had plenty of family and friends to share the holidays with....

It's different in the south where not many put up the lights and the ground is brown and bare....but I have my tree back up and lights on the outside....anyway, great to get to know you...shirley

Thanks for the invite, Valerie, have a wonderful Thanksgiving. We'll tooling down to road right now on the way to relatives house for Thanksgiving and Saundra is driving and I'm working on a manuscript.

Sure. Richard Paul Evans (Christmas Box) was our keynote speaker. Excellent! He also gave everyone at the conference a copy of that book. He's got The Gift just released.

I spoke with two agents and two publishers. All are positive about my book in progress and want to see a chapter and proposal.

I've had three agents in the past and none of them did anything for me. One was in NY City. Nothing. So I've been a go-to-publisher person since then.

We'll see what happens. :)
