Courageous is LIVE!

I have to admit I am SUPER distracted today. I am excited and in pain from my back and sick with a cold all at the same time. Here is the exciting (and most important!) thing though: I was on a break at a retreat on Saturday when I discovered that my new book Courageous is live on Amazon, and I've been trying to promote like crazy across all channels ever since.  Then this morning I discovered that the book is live on the Barnes & Noble website (on sale, no less!), so whenever Amazon runs out I am checking the…

A little bit of happy mail goes a long way. At least in my book. Nothing beats having a handwritten card or a box in the mailbox.  (Even better is a box that doesn't fit in the mailbox, but I'll take what I can get!)  That's why I'm all about subscription boxes.  We don't usually subscribe to any, because we are trying to limit our expenditures.  But when we are able…
