Family Status:Married with Children! Three kids - My oldest is a girl, 14, then two boys, ages 13 and 8
What Is Your Favorite Beverage:I like a good latte. Nothing fancy. No extra this or that. No mocha. No whip. No fancy blah, blah, blah. Just a latte. Cold in the summer, hot in the winter :)
What Is Your Favorite Food:I like anything somebody else cooks and cleans up. Always. Whether it's a restaurant or someone else cooks. Don't care!
What Is Your Favorite Thing to do During Free Time:I read as much as I can. I'm also kind of a movie buff. But not arty movies. My favorite movie this year has been Guardians of the Galaxy.
Who Has Been the Most Influential Person in Your Life:
Absolutely my husband! I wouldn't be here without him. He's been a great support and mentor.
First Book You Fell in Love With: The Little Princess. I wanted to breath that story!
A Book You Wish You’d Written:The Bell Jar
First Book Published:Winning the Widow's Heart. I finaled in the ACFW Genesis contest and voila - Harlequin said they were interested. The rest is history...
Most Recent Book: The Cattleman Meets His Match is in stores now!!!
Out Next: The Engagement Bargain will release in February of 2015.
How Many Have You Written:I'm currently working on my fifth book. (I can't even believe I'm saying that!)
What Do You Know Now That You Wish You’d Known Then:Hmmm, it's probably good I didn't know that each book would get harder and not easier. The more I know, the more I know I don't know! I also didn't realize this is a 24 hour a day, seven days a week job. There's no vacation! Not really. There's always something percolating.
What is Your Favorite Bible Story: I can't really answer this one because different stories have spoken to me at different times in my life. That's the beautiful thing about the Bible. Right now I've been thinking a lot about how Peter is beckoned by Jesus andsteps out of his storm-tossed boat onto the unsettled Sea of Galilee. In that instant, Peter has perfect faith. I've been thinking a lot about those moments between faith and fear.
What is Your Favorite Bible Verse: Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.Philippians 1:6
What is Your Favorite Hymn:
I should have something less obvious, but On Eagle's Wings will always be a favorite

Please pray for Wendy Kinney who is battling cancer.

Sherri, you are right. Each book gets harder.
ReplyDeleteOn Eagles Wings is one of my favorites, too. And it's a relief to me to hear that others think each book gets harder.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that I'm not the only one who thinks each book gets harder!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pic! And I'm so with you on being happy with anything as long as I don't have to cook it. It took me until I was in my thirties to admit to myself that I'd rather do dishes than cook, but there you have it.
ReplyDeleteSherri, it's good to get to know you better. I enjoyed your interview, and now, I'm going to have to look up, "On Eagle's Wings" because I don't know it!
ReplyDeleteGreat to get to know you better, Sherri! Great interview!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by everyone!
