Hello! 🙂
I was searching for YA author blogs, and I came across this blog! Sounds awesome! 🙂 My name’s Taylor, and I recently became a YA author! 🙂 So, I’m always ready for some pointers, since I’m just 17 and fairly new to the writing business!
And let me say that the first thing that caught my eye when I looked at this blog was “About Me”…Christian; now that’s sweet! 🙂 Christ is the best thing that ever happened to me, and I have to say that He is entwined all over and in and around my book! 🙂
God bless,
Taylor J. Beisler

Well, I already follow….
And, I have a 17 and 14 year old daughter. With my 17 yr old high school student, I’d say one of the things they struggle with figuring out what is acceptable and not. Some things have become so ‘normal’ when they should be shunned. For example texting illicit pictures between phones and the use of the internet. When my daughter and I talk about it, she’ll say,”But Mom, you don’t understand, it’s normal, everywhere that kids do that.” ……..scary stuff.

Hello Cindy,
great blog! I caught your link about the contest on twitter this morning. Great stuff. I haven’t had a chance to review your ‘past’ blogs, but would love an article on developing your children’s spiritual gifting. God bless,
