Hey Betsy! I've been checking in here every couple days since "meeting" you on Scribble Chicks. I love the layout, the bright colors, and most of all the polkadots on your blog page! The whole thing is really easy to navigate and puts forth a happy, friendly vibe. Nicely done!
I saw you were doing a giveaway of your book, so of course, I had to enter! I can't wait to read it!
Hi Betsy,
I love your website, I especially like the part about liking chocolate and lots of Coke. I have 6 1/2 year old twin boys, and I allow myself some dark chocolate (good for the heart), & need the caffeine in the soda to help me get through the frustrating times with the twins. I also like the story about the polka-dot shoes.
I just finished reading your book Return to Love, and I loved it. I originally chose the book because I liked the picture of the street car on the front, and actually thought the book took place in California. I was not familiar much with Louisiana, and enjoyed the names of the various places where they got the Gumbo, (good name for the penguin too), and found much humor in the penguin display story.
I was going to ask if there would be a sequel to this, but my question was answered on your website.
Thanks for a great story, and am looking forward to the next one.

Hi Betsy! I'm also a writer...though yet unpub'd. I saw a link to your site through Allison Pittman's site (she's the leader of my writing group...LOVE HER). I am thrilled to see such a young voice in Christian publication. I love your site & would love to learn more about how you balance being a young mom and writing! Were you pub'd before motherhood & again after or all after your first baby? I am 31 and have a 2 year old. She's fabulous but, of course, zaps almost all of my energy.
How do you cope? A lot of coffee & chocolate? Energy drinks? Miracle energy from the Lord!
Would love to hear more. I write contemporary women's christian fiction...just started my first project post Felicity's birth...finished chpt 2 this week. WHEW...it has been such a journey just to get to this project period!

Love the shade of blue you choose! And the texture in the pink is cute, even if I find the pink to be a bit strong. I also really like the quote, and the little to do list graphic. Cute, and so true for writers!
So...I like that the pink has texture to it. Your quote is one of my favorite quotes ever!! The animation of your name is really amazing and your pictures are beautiful!!!!!!!! I love the buttons too!

I love your colors, but I especially like the photo that keeps changing. LOVE you little black dress photos the best!
Got so excited when I discovered tonight your guest blog on Valerie Comer's web site. I met Valerie through FM Writers. Now I have found your web site and have already added to my favorites. I shall keep up with you through the site and your grandmother, Marie.
In reading your book, I liked how your words seem to float off the page. Characters are believeable and the conversations between the two pov are not stilted. I heard from Marie that it will be coming out in large print soon. I can wait to purchase that.
Great Aunt Betty

Just finished reading "Return to Love" and enjoyed it very much. I hope you will be developing stories for the other characters in this book: Andy, Lori and even Tawny. Thanks for a great read.
Yay! You finally got your website set up! It's super cute
See you and Little Miss on Saturday!
Stopping by to see the gorgeous new website. It is so very you! I'm reading Return to Love right now and enjoying every word.
