Sunday prayer for my comrades

Captain's Log, Stardate 12.18.2005

Thanks to Mir for the coolio new word.

Anybody have prayer requests? Leave them in the comments and I’ll be praying this week.

You don’t have to be Christian to leave a prayer request. If you’d rather not advertise to everyone on the blogosphere, just leave an unspoken prayer request.

I did the worship set for my youth group last night and today my knee is throbbing, although it might be a combination of the standing last night and the torrential rains today. We're making Christmas presents today, too, so hopefully that will go well.

Lord God, thank you for today and this week of our lives. Thank you for the breath and life to praise you. Thank you for the fellowship of sharing in Christ's suffering that brings us closer to you

Be with Cheryl in India. Please continue to use her and the team for your glory, and protect her family while she's gone.

Be with Heather in her writing projects. Please help her to fight the spiritual warfare taking a crack at her abilities.

Please keep Pammer's car in working condition. Please also heal her tooth so it doesn't cause her discomfort.

Continue to be with Jules, and we pray the lumps are benign. (Pammer, do you have an update on her?)

Thank you for Robin's request for a full, and please continue to bless her writing. Please send Emily a Protector.

Help Gail continue to heal quickly and smoothly from surgery. Also be with her daughter Brenda during her chemotherapy sessions and recovery.

Please heal Dineen's jaw and continue to help her to write for you, without being discouraged or distracted by this season.

Please help Mir get over her writing hump, and heal her ears and left eye with the powerful touch of your hand. Give her energy during this time.

Continue to cover Paula with your wondrous hand as she writes. I pray her book proposal went out in perfect shape.

Help Mimi's book to fall into the right hands, and guide her husband to the ministry you desire for him.

Help Donna's next book be all yours, Lord.

I pray you will provide for Ronie and her family.

Please help Megan be productive with her time, and confident in your direction of her writing. Give her your affirmation, Lord, and provide her with a special crit partner.

Give Janice your peace during this time, and please provide for her and her girls.

Please continue to help me heal, and help me to rely on your strength for my discipline.

Cover us with your peace, Lord. Amen.

Camy, you're such a class act. I'll be praying for your knee and your upcoming contract!

This is cool. You may need a whole new blog site--"Blog-a-prayer." Pray for me, because I'm a male Christian writer surrounded by female Christian writers (though all are online).

Here's a praise. My LOGOs kids (Wed. night program) were AWESOME in their two play performances Sunday morning. Sometimes I think it's actually worth the headaches.

Update on Jules? She hurt her leg and at work the other day the chair they gave her to sit on (since she is on crutches and standing for ten hours is out of the question) dumped her and she sprained her wrists and shoulder to go with her banged up leg. They put her on partial disability and so that means she will go without pay for three days AND not get her holiday pay (she's worked here for about fifteen or more years)! Her hubby is also on diability due to a back surgery, so she is feeling a little down. Please pray for her.

You are such a doll.

I got my book today. Thank you!
Hugs,
Pammer

Brainstorm - character occupation

Captain's Log, Stardate 03.23.2009 Hey guys, I could use some help. In my current manuscript, The Year of the Dog , which is a humorous contemporary romance, I have a minor character, Eddie. He’s my heroine’s ex-boyfriend, and they’re on good terms with each other. He’s a bit irresponsible, but not so much so that he’s a complete loser. He’s got a very easy going attitude, he forgets to pay his bills sometimes, he’s friendly and charming. He’s adventurous and fun to be around, but he’s a little forgetful sometimes, and he tends to spend a little outside his income. I need an occupation for him. What would a charming, easy going, slightly irresponsible guy do for a living? He’s not too irresponsible, because otherwise readers will wonder what in the world my heroine saw in him to date him in the first place. She was attracted to his charm, his easy going attitude (her family’s uptight, and he was a nice contrast), and his adventurousness. But his forgetfulness and irresponsibility ...

Chinese Take-Out and Sushi for One

Captain’s Log, Supplemental My agent sent me an article from Publisher’s Weekly that discussed this incident: Chinese Take-Out Spawns Christian Controversy And here’s also a blog post that talks about it in more detail: The Fighting 44s This is Soong-Chan Rah’s blog: The PCS blog In sum: Apparently Zondervan (yes, my publisher), who has partnered with Youth Specialties, had put out a youth leaders skit that had stereotypical Asian dialogue, which offended many Christian Asian Americans. In response to the outcry, Zondervan/Youth Specialities put out a sincere apology and is not only freezing the remaining stock of the book, but also reprinting it and replacing the copies people have already bought. I am very proud of my publisher for how they have handled this situation. The skit writers have also issued a public apology . (I feel sorry for them, because they were only trying to write a funny skit, not stir up this maelstrom of internet controversy. I’ve been in youth work long enou...

Window shopping

Captain’s Log, Stardate 03.14.2005 Knee update: I went to the doctor today for a checkup, and saw his assistant. I’ve been concerned because there’s still inflammation in my knee joint, and it’s been almost 4 months since the surgery. She said she’d talk to the doctor about it tomorrow and call me. Sometimes he suggests laying off the PT to see if that causes the inflammation to go away, but I don’t know if that will work because lately I’ve been pretty active outside of PT. At PT today, the therapist did ultrasound and some sort of electrical current on the joint. Hopefully that will make the inflammation start to go down. I’ll know by tomorrow, probably. Writing: Mt. Hermon conference starts this Friday! On Thursday night, I’ll be at the Santana Row Borders bookstore to help out (and hopefully learn a bit, too) at a booksigning for several of the ACFW authors who are attending Mt. Hermon . That should be lots of fun. I had a good brainstorming time at ...

Japanese language learning process in more detail

I blogged a few weeks ago that I’ve jumped back into my Japanese language learning after being lazy and letting it slide. I’ve been keeping my Japanese language study habit for about a month now, and I wanted to blog about my process in more detail. One thing I had noticed about my Japanese is that I tended not to do it if I left it to do at the end of the day. I realized that it was just like my exercise—if I didn’t do it first thing in the morning, it never got done. So I started doing my Japanese right after my exercise in the morning. I treated it like one of my “frogs,” as I read about in the book Eat That Frog!: 21 Great Ways to Stop Procrastinating and Get More Done in Less Time . The book is based off of a Mark Twain quote: “Eat a live frog first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day.” It suggests doing your “frogs”—your important things that you’re likely to procrastinate doing—first thing in the morning in order to get it done, and ...

New book idea a la Captain Caffeine

Captain's Log, Stardate 04.14.2009 So my husband, Captain Caffeine, had lunch with a few friends a few days ago. And they asked about my writing, and if I’d been on Oprah yet. (Yeah, right) They then discussed NYT bestselling books, and why can’t Camy write a NYT bestseller. (Sure, let me just open a vein over a blank page and it’ll come right out.) So Captain Caffeine came home with ideas for my new NYT bestselling novel. First it starts with vampires, because Twilight is so hot. But not just any vampires. This one’s an Amish vampire. And he’s not just an Amish vampire, he’s a cop in disguise, infiltrating the Amish community to protect a witness. (Hmm, that storyline sounds familiar ...) But wait! There’s more! To add more conflict and stick with my brand of Asian fiction, we introduce the Tibetan monk! Who joins the Amish community to get away from the pressures of monkhood. But in reality, he’s protecting the Chinese princess on the run, trying to escape from her father’s Hong...
