Please join me on what I hope is the road to publication. I’ve written a Christian contemporary novel that I hope to see published. I’ve written the book and pitched it to editors at a Christian conference. By Monday morning my proposal will be on it’s way. If I understand correctly, I will then have a month or two (at least) to wait and see what happens. Basically, I’m inviting you to keep me company while I wait.
The working title for my book is “The Lotus Leaf Effect.” See how drops of water are beading up on the blades of grass in the photo above? That’s the lotus leaf effect at work. Here’s the one-line summary for the book:
When a woman who thinks of herself as a Christian learns that she may have literally walked on water at the age of four, she acknowledges her lukewarm faith and comes to terms with the tension between what she can prove is true and what she believes is possible.
Meet Sarah
Hello, Sarah! This is the first time I have ever commented on a blog. I know waiting is the hardest part of any endeavor, so I’m willing to wait with you.
Thank you! Do you realize that thanks to you my blog is International? Wow!
Immediately, I wanted to say that I really liked the picture at the top of your BLOG. Now I have learned something I did not know: the lotus leaf effect. I shall now go read all about that. Eager (and perhaps a bit axious) to follow you on your journey! Love and prayers, Mom
Sarah, I am most honored to wait with you on this journey… but I must warn you that I am most impatient. i really, really can’t wait to read the book! Blessings.
Sarah,
Grandmother Anne, little Anne and I are all excited about the upcoming book! We feel a vested interest in this project and will wait alongside. I’m reading “The Book Thief” right now and really enjoying it. After Grandmother reads it I’ll be glad to pass on if you would like. Meg
Yes, please–I’ve heard good things about that book.
