I just finished writing Year of the Dog ! It had a massive plot hole that I had to fix which turned out to be more work than I expected. Here’s a snippet: “Hey, Auntie Nell.” He wrapped his arms around her, bussing her on the cheek and breathing in pikake flowers and shortbread cookies. And suddenly he was nine years old again, and her solid presence had made his chaotic world stable once more. “What are you doing here?” He usually took her to dinner on Wednesday nights, but today was Tuesday. The edges of her smile faltered a little before brightening right back up again. “What, I can’t visit my nephew?” She angled around him to enter his home. “Is this your new house? Looks lovely.” Which was a blatant lie, because the fixer-upper was barely livable, much less acceptable to a neat-freak like his aunt.

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 e-mail me. If I forgot your prayer request, e-mail me. Not to be mean or anything, but if you don't e-mail me or comment to update your prayer request, I'm only going to pray ONE Sunday.
I’m trying something new with my Sunday Prayer. I’m really bad about doing it on Sunday, so I’ll be updating it during the week.

Dear Lord,
I pray for complete healing for Bruce, Doug, and Tony.
Please be with Christina on her missions trip. Bless her, bless her team, and bless everyone she will come into contact with. Use her for your glory, and give her everything she needs to serve you.
I pray everything turned out well for Belladonna, and that you continue to watch over her. Guide her and nudge her spirit as to what you want for her.
Help Marilyn continue to feel well during her vacation.
Please help Cheryl feel well during her conference trip. I pray her editor will buy book 3. Please also help her to feel refreshed, rejuvenated, and remotivated to work on book 4.
Please continue to keep Pammer in good health.
Help Sharon with her writing, her health, her career. Be with her now during her tour, and I pray for your blessings on them. Use them to impart blessings on the people they’ll meet. Give her strength and endurance.
Amen.
