Feeling a bit like I'm standing on the sidelines this conference season. This article met me right where I am and reminded me there's value in every season. https://t.co/1HwrCucbMo #WritingCommunity #amwriting #authortips

Some rewards take longer than expected.
Today's blog post is about staying the course when results aren't immediate—and the reminder that persistence often pays off in its own time.

Ha ha, corrrection: at 60, my third novel arrives on June 30. 😅

[Chris Maday Schmidt Author @AlwaysWriteTime]

This article speaks to my heart. My debut released at 58. At 61, my third novel arrives June 30. I’m still learning that God’s timing isn’t late—it’s His. He put me on this path, and He’s the One who sets the pace. ❤️📚 #amwriting #WritingCommunity #WritersDigest

Great post for anyone who has ever felt behind. I know this is something I struggle with.

It's the unicorn sparkles that keeps me going. That and a whole lotta Jesus. And coffee.

That's all He's asking.

God provides exactly what we need for today—not five years from now, not even next week. Daily bread requires daily trust, even in our writing.
Where do you encounter God’s provision most clearly?

When my husband and I were first married, he thought it was weird that I read during mealtime (a tradition my mom passed down to me). Now we both read at the table. Anyone else?
