It's nice getting to know you, Linda. Praying for you, as well as your son's family.
ReplyDeleteLinda, I really enjoy Kristen's books too.
ReplyDeleteI'll be praying for you all as well. I hope to see you this summer.
Oh, yum! Fried okra. Now I'm going to have to go to the store and get some.
ReplyDeleteAnd Linda, I totally cracked up when you said monetarily there were many books you wish you'd written! Had me laughing. =)
It was great getting to know you better, and your family is in my prayers.
Hi Linda - so great to learn more about you. Those two hymns you mentioned happen to have special meaning for me as well. Amazing Grace was played at my wedding and Beulah Land is my husband's favorite hymn.
ReplyDeleteHi, Linda! I remember the first time I heard your name. It was called at the 2008 Romance Writers of America® Awards Banquet when you won the RITA in the Inspirational category. I clapped so enthusiastically my palms stung.
ReplyDeleteI, too, like water, nice and cold. I often add a squirt of lime juice. So refreshing.
Lovely to get to know you better, Linda. Praying for your daughter-in-law and grandchildren.
ReplyDeleteLinda, what fun photos! Thanks for sharing about you.
ReplyDeleteI'm a day late but loved your interview, Linda. And fried okra---YUM!! :)
ReplyDeleteContinued prayers for your son's family and all of you. May you feel God's comfort and peace in all the coming days.
Hugs, Patti Jo
p.s. Met you at ACFW in 2011 (?) in the ladies restroom, LOL. I liked you right away, because you were SO sweet!
Linda, I don't have just one favorite hymn either.
ReplyDeleteI remember reading On Mystic Lake. And then being annoyed with the way it ended. ;)
ReplyDeleteSo good to learn more about you, Linda. Prayers continue for you and your son's family.
Oh goodness, I am so sorry for being late to this party! I don't know where my head is. It's awesome to be featured and fun to read your comments. Luv you all!
