Lady Wynwood #7 early release Kickstarter

I worked on my first Kickstarter and it got approved! It’s for the Special Edition Hardcover of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 1: Archer and the release of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 7: Spinster. I contacted my graphic designer about the Special Edition Hardcover of vol. 1: Archer—it’s going to be SO beautiful! The Kickstarter focuses on the Special Edition Hardcover, but it’ll also include vol. 7: Spinster so that it’ll sort of be like a launch day for vol. 7, too. A third special thing that’ll be in the Kickstarter is Special Edition Paperbacks of all the books in the series. They won’t be available in stores, just in the Kickstarter (and later, from my website, and also in my Patreon book box tiers if I decide to do them). The Kickstarter is not live yet, but you can follow it to be alerted when it has launched. (You may need to create a free Kickstarter account.) Follow Camy’s Kickstarter

Sunday Prayer

Captain's Log, Stardate 03.05.2006

Leave any prayer requests 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 or email me. Not to be mean or anything, but if you don't email me or comment to update your prayer request, I'm only going to pray 3 Sundays.

Name above all names, we praise you.

Father, please comfort the grieving and give them the peace that only you can cover them with.

Give Christina the strength and guidance she needs as she finishes her time in Japan serving you. Thank you for her servant's heart.

Please be with Heather as she works through the things you spoke to her about. Give her courage and trust, and thank you for her desire to love you more.

Help Pammer overcome her fear, and thank you for how you've led her so far. Please continue to blanket her with your presence.

I pray for healing for Squirl's hip. Please give her and her doctors wisdom about what to do.

Keep your hedge of protection around the orphanages in India, Lord.

Continue to lead and guide Robin in her writing career.

Help Ronie as she prepares for the move, and be with her in the midst of all these changes.

Help Dineen to finish her projects and keep her focus on you, Lord.

Help Ron to balance his work, family, and writing projet ideas.

I pray for healing for Mir and energy to do what she needs to this week. Give her (and me) discipline in her writing and her health.

Give Sharon all that she needs to finish her manuscript. I pray for rest and peace on her body.

I pray that Lori's surgery goes smoothly and that recovery is also a piece of cake.

Please continue to heal Amber.

Lead Gina H. to the right editor, and continue to guide her writing to bring you glory.

Help Crystal know your will for her writing direction.

Lord, please provide for Paula and her family. Please motivate their clients to pay outstanding invoices.

Help Megan at her new job, and help her to make time for her writing.

Please help Malia to find favor with the insurance company so that they will pay for the treatments that have been helping her. Please heal her by your mighty power, Lord.

I pray for your hand over Darlene's friend's daughter, that she will find true rest and healing in you.

Energize Donna as she works to finish her book in the coming weeks.

Hover over Heather G. and help her to know you more.

Thank you for this new direction in Mok's life--I pray for your blessing and wisdom to rest on her.

Please continue to help Gail to heal smoothly, and I pray you will help Brenda's chemo treatments to go well. Please ease her discomfort, Lord, and I pray for healing for her body.

Give your comfort and peace to Margaret's friend, diagnosed with bone cancer.

Continue to help Donna C. as she recovers from heart stent surgery. Please patch up her tired body.

Continue to give RagamuffinDiva your guidance, peace, and power.

I lift up Angie--give her strength and energy, Father. Take any stress away and continue to help her remain smoke-free. I pray for complete healing for Pattie.

Continue to help Audra as she cares for her new baby. Thank you for this new life.

Help Lynette to write for you, especially as she works on new projects.

Lay your hand on all the projects LaShaunda sends out.

I pray you will help Tiff to craft her submissions and that they will find favor with the publisher who requested them.

Help Tina hear soon about her manuscript.

Continue to give Mary C. a great sense of humor and I pray for favor for her proposal in committee.

Give Missy peace, strength, and guidance. Provide for her family and help her to trust you wherever you lead her.

Keep your hand over Mariah's life and help her to find her way to you, Lord.

Give Dream your strength, power, and calm. Help her to continue to walk with you in joy and good humor.

I pray for Sigrun's sister-in-law's parents, that they will come to know you.

Please continue to help Zola's chemo go smoothly.

For my friends married to non-believers, grant them your wisdom this week.

I lift up your persecuted church, Father, and ask for your favor on them.

Please continue to help me to heal smoothly from surgery. Give me discipline in all these areas of my life, and help me to continue to persevere for you, Lord.

All will see how great is our God. Amen.

Bible in 90 Days: Day 53. God asked a LOT from poor Ezekiel. But he did it all without complaining, and I can't imagine how terrified he must have been by all these visions of the Lord's glory. The most profound image for me was the Lord's presence leaving the temple in Jerusalem. How astounding and humbling that Christ would enter the temple years later--the presence of God returned--and no one would recognize him.

Writing: Got a lot of great plot points done yesterday. The story's taking shape with more colors than it had before.

Diet: Did not so great yesterday--maybe 1600 or 1700--although I did stop eating around 9:20 pm (only 20 minutes late). I had a LOT of Greek food for lunch, but we're going for a walk this afternoon and I'll have vegetable soup for dinner.

I really appreciate the prayers. Amber Faith Elizabeth is a real sweetie pie, but we've been struggling with figuring out what I'm eating that makes her tummy cramp so bad. I need wisdom. :) Plus, my healing is going much slower than I'd like...patience was never my thing. :)

Thanks again for the prayers...it means a lot to know someone is praying.

Writing Progress - Sushi and Suspicions is done!

I finished writing Sushi and Suspicions and turned it in! To celebrate, I ate my favorite peach jelly from Minamoto Kichoan ! I was a bit surprised to realize at the end of the book that there wasn’t as much romance as in some of my other books, maybe because there were a lot of characters in this book compared to other romantic suspense novels I’ve written. Sushi and Suspicions will be releasing in June in the multi-author box set Summer Suspicions . Even though it’s a box set, each Christian Romantic Suspense novel in it is a full book, so it’s a great deal! Preorder Summer Suspicions for only 99 cents!

Grace Livingston Hill romances free to read online

I wanted to update my old post on Grace Livingston Hill romances because now there are tons more options for you to be able to read her books for free online! I’m a huge Grace Livingston Hill fan. Granted, not all her books resonate with me, but there are a few that I absolutely love, like The Enchanted Barn and Crimson Roses . And the best part is that she wrote over 100 books and I haven’t yet read them all! When I have time, I like to dive into a new GLH novel. I like the fact that most of them are romances, and I especially appreciate that they all have strong Christian themes. Occasionally the Christian content is a little heavy-handed for my taste, but it’s so interesting to see what the Christian faith was like in the early part of the 20th century. These books are often Cinderella-type stories or A Little Princess (Frances Hodgson Burnett) type stories, which I love. And the best part is that they’re all set in the early 1900s, so the time period is absolutely fasci

Tabi socks, part deux

Captain's Log, Stardate 07.25.2008 (If you're on Ravelry, friend me! I'm camytang.) I made tabi socks again! (At the bottom of the pattern is the calculation for the toe split if you're not using the same weight yarn that I did for this pattern (fingering). I also give an example from when I used worsted weight yarn with this pattern.) I used Opal yarn, Petticoat colorway. It’s a finer yarn than my last pair of tabi socks, so I altered the pattern a bit. Okay, so here’s my first foray into giving a knitting pattern. Camy’s top-down Tabi Socks I’m assuming you already know the basics of knitting socks. If you’re a beginner, here are some great tutorials: Socks 101 How to Knit Socks The Sock Knitter’s Companion A video of turning the heel Sock Knitting Tips Yarn: I have used both fingering weight and worsted weight yarn with this pattern. You just change the number of cast on stitches according to your gauge and the circumference of your ankle. Th

No Cold Bums toilet seat cover

Captain's Log, Stardate 08.22.2008 I actually wrote out my pattern! I was getting a lot of hits on my infamous toilet seat cover , and I wanted to make a new one with “improvements,” so I paid attention and wrote things down as I made the new one. This was originally based off the Potty Mouth toilet cover , but I altered it to fit over the seat instead of the lid. Yarn: any worsted weight yarn, about 120 yards (this is a really tight number, I used exactly 118 yards. My suggestion is to make sure you have about 130 yards.) I suggest using acrylic yarn because you’re going to be washing this often. Needle: I used US 8, but you can use whatever needle size is recommended by the yarn you’re using. Gauge: Not that important. Mine was 4 sts/1 inch in garter stitch. 6 buttons (I used some leftover shell buttons I had in my stash) tapestry needle Crochet hook (optional) Cover: Using a provisional cast on, cast on 12 stitches. Work in garter st until liner measures

Year of the Dog serial novel

About Year of the Dog : A month or two ago, I remembered an old manuscript I had completed but which hadn’t sold. It was a contemporary romance meant for Zondervan, titled Year of the Dog . The book had gone into the pipeline and I even got another title ( Bad Dog ) and a cover for it, but eventually my editor at the time decided she didn’t want to publish it, for various reasons. She instead requested a romantic suspense, and so I cannibalized some of the characters from Year of the Dog and thrust them into the next book I wrote, which was Protection for Hire . Honestly, I didn’t take a lot from Year of the Dog to put in Protection for Hire , aside from character names and a few relationship ties. I was originally thinking I’d post Year of the Dog as-is on my blog as a free read, but then it occurred to me that I could revamp it into a romantic suspense and change the setting to Hawaii. It would work out perfectly as (yet another) prequel to the Warubozu series and introduc
