This shot cracks me up. For the ACFW Band picture, we decided to trade instruments. I’m on drums, trying to twirl the sticks. LOL. We decided this looked like an album cover. Now, if only we had an album. From left to right: Amanda Wen, Jeremy Saglimbeni, Eddie Tucker, Jaiver Laboy as the Dos Esques man, Rachel Hauck, Pepper Basham, …

Real thank you speech
Caught in a swirl of busyness between teaching a continuing ed class at ACFW and leading worship, I didn’t think much about the Book of the Year Award.

Editors from the major and not so major Christian publishing houses will be there. Agents looking for their next new client. Authors who are more than willing to share their experiences and …
