If you’ve read my Contemporary Christian Romance novel, Sushi for One? , you might enjoy this fun short story I wrote that takes place right after the book ends. If you haven’t read Sushi for One? , no worries, you won’t be lost. This is a little vignette that happens at a wedding. I wrote this story during my nightmarish years as a single woman at my relatives’ weddings. And yes, the story is based off of a true story (mine).

Hey guys, sorry this is late. Blogger was wigging out when I tried to post this earlier.
Another card I made. I’m rather proud of this one.
Don’t you hate it when . . . you schedule Billpay payment to your insurance company premium through your online banking like a good girl and it says the payment went through, but then it shows the money was never taken out of your checking account and you get a statement from the insurance company that you never paid your premium?
I’m so peeved. I filed an inquiry with my bank’s Billpay. I haven’t been charged late fees yet, luckily.
TMI:
Bible in 90 Days: Day 5. Reading about how Joseph interpreted the pharaoh’s cup-bearer's dream and then how the dude went back to work and forgot about Joseph for two whole years made me think about the writer’s life.
Often I would get some good news or a lucky break—an editor would show interest and request the full manuscript, or I’d win or final in a contest. It would give me hope that I’d be published soon.
But then nothing happened. Talk about major let-down.
I could feel for Joseph.
Writing: Still plotting. Please pray.

I'm so proud of you! :-)
You and I HAVE to schedule a mini-writing retreat visit where you come visit for several days and we can write half the day and stamp half the day.
I made some cute book marks and gift cards and envelops as gifts to my Book Buddies and it was SO fun.
I bet it's a fun creative outlet that doesn't include plotting or revising. :) Enjoy!
