Sunday prayer

Captain’s Log, Stardate 12.04.2005

I’ll continue Mary Griffith’s blog tour tomorrow with an excerpt from MADE OF HONOR.

I missed church today because my husband is sick and my leg is still too delicate for me to go out. So how about Sunday prayer?

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

This isn’t to sound Holier-Than-Thou or anything like that. I don’t have very reverent prayers sometimes, but I do believe in the power of prayer to my powerful Lord.

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.

For me, my upper back has been killing me because I’m so uneven from not being able to put my full weight on one leg.

I’m also going to add Squirl’s missions trip to India during the month of December, Pammer’s disappearing time, Heather’s new book projects, Dineen's distracted writing time, and a plug for a laptop for Robin.

Anybody else? If I don't mention you, it's only cuz I don't know what to pray about for you, or if you want your prayer requests mentioned publicly.

Lord God, I praise you for today, for your glory over all the earth. Thank you for your grace over us. Thanks that my post-op recovery has been going so well. Thanks for Dineen being able to drive me to PT. Thanks for the work the Story Sensei has gotten recently.

Please be preparing Squirl for her trip, in her heart, mind, and body. Watch over her family, and help her not to worry, but to trust you to have your hand over them.

Help Pammer continue to write for your glory. We pray against any feelings of inadequacy and distractions. Help her to keep moving forward and stop rewriting chapter one!

Thank you for speaking to Heather about future direction in her writing. Continue to lead and guide her. Give her your strength to do what you want her to do.

Help Dineen focus during her writing time with you. I pray against any spiritual warfare going on in her household.

You know I want your will over any of ours, but if you can see to it, please help Robin somehow get a laptop for her writing.

Please heal my back so that I don’t have pain or discomfort any more. Please enable me to get to the chiropractor.

Thanks for all my friends in the blogosphere. Amen.

Amen. And if you are in the mood for a post script, please pray for my book to be seen by the right publisher. Also pray that God will direct my husband into the right ministry job. Thank you!

Amen! Thank you so much, I am humbled by the gift of your sweet prayer.

BTW, I stopped rewriting Chapter one ages ago, now I'm stuck on chapter two. :0 Joking, I am moving forward again. (Maybe has something to do with your faithful prayers.)
Hugs to you. Love ya!

Oh I nearly forgot, could you pray for Jules? The mammogram showed two masses one on each side and the one in the right side is the size of a quarter and solid. Pray that it is not cancerous. Thanks again.

I’m done

Captain’s Log, Stardate 05.17.2006 Blog book giveaway: My Thursday book giveaway is THE PREACHER’S DAUGHER by Lyn Cote My Monday book giveaway is BLIND DATES CAN BE MURDER by Mindy Starns Clark . You can still enter both giveaways. Just post a comment on each of those blog posts. On Thursday, I'll draw the winner for THE PREACHER’S DAUGHTER and post the title for another book I'm giving away. Stay tuned. I’m done. At the beginning of the year, I made a goal of three books this year. That’s four months per book. I started this manuscript January 15th. I finished in the wee hours of May 17th, so it took me about four months, a day and a few hours. Yay me. I’m going to bed now. Yes, this is the espresso maker on the right, and a professional coffee grinder on the left. By the espresso maker, I mean the one I promised to my long-suffering husband if I got a book contract, as a reward for letting me quit my biotech job and write full-time.

Romantic guys

Captain’s Log, Stardate 10.13.2006 Heroes: I’m a TV junkie, I admit it. I’m hooked on the new series called Heroes. (It’s like X-Men, but before they realized their powers and came together to become the X-Men. And without the funky costumes.) Okay, regardless of the X-Men type storyline, one of the heroines—a high school girl—is talking to a boy she likes, the quarterback of the football team. He’s sweet-talking her and being very flattering. She says he doesn’t really know her very well. He goes into this romantic spiel about how he notices she draws unicorns in the margins of her notes in class, etc. Now here I pause the TiVo and turn to Captain Caffeine. Skeptical Asian wife: “That’s so un-guy-like! How realistic is it for a typical guy to say something eloquent and romantic like that?” Captain Caffeine: “It sounds romantic because he’s the quarterback of the football team.” Confused Asian wife: “What do you mean?” Captain Caffeine: “If he were a computer geek, he would sound like...

ICRS Tuesday

Captain's Log, Stardate 07.11.2007 I started the day with a great meeting with Al Hsu , an editor at InterVarsity Press. We discussed Asian Americans—fiction, non-fiction, the church, family. He’s been in publishing for many years and is very wise. We had a great discussion. I also met his wife Ellen, who’s totally nice and is also into card-making! I wandered the floor and happened to meet Robin Jones Gunn. She asked if I’d eaten yet, and since I hadn’t, said to join her for lunch. On the way to lunch, we met Mark Mynheir, and he gave me a copy of his book, got The Void . Isn’t that cool? Robin has so much wisdom. I loved having lunch with her. She gave me such good advice, both professionally and spiritually. I hope I’ll get a chance to have lunch or dinner with her at the ACFW conference in September. I met up with agent Steve Laube, and walked with him to his next meeting, but on the way we were hailed by Cec Murphy and agent Jeff Dunn. Jeff had been the first editor to request...

I GOT A CONTRACT!

Captain’s Log, Stardate 03.29.2006 I had a wonderfully funny blog post planned for today, but I got sidetracked by some news yesterday! Zondervan has offered me a three-book contract on my Asian chick-lit series ! I’m still stunned by everything that’s happened. The series is actually a 4-book projected Asian chick-lit series about four cousins who fall under the infamous family title "Oldest Single Female Cousin," and their ruthless, wealthy grandma applies pressure on each of them to improve their lack of love interests. I think the first book is tentatively scheduled to be released in August 2007. The blurb on the series is on my website here . Brandilyn Collins posted to the ACFW loop about my writing journey, and Tamara Cooper asked that I share it. And since you all know how much I like to talk , here it is. My writing journey: Like most writers, I have wanted to write since I was very young. (In high school, I wrote a fantasy novel that will never see the light of day ...

Ironman

Captain's Log, Stardate 11.12.2008 I realize I’m late in posting this, but I just saw Ironman a couple weeks ago and it was FABULOUS! It was the most entertaining movie I’ve seen in a long time. I even liked it better than Mr. and Mrs. Smith (although that flick is a close second). I think because the acting was great. Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow were fantastic. I especially liked how the Pepper character is an older woman with more maturity than, say, MaryJane in Spiderman . Pepper was strong, intelligent, and relatively cool under fire. And did you guys catch the Easter Egg at the end of the credits??? Awesome!!!
