Girls Write Out
Monday, November 22, 2010
This is Thanksgiving week, and the Girls have SO much to be thankful for! Our Di has walked a hard road this year and we've walked it with her. Tomorrow at 9:05 AM EST she and I are going to be on WBCL to talk about friendship, cancer, writing and God. (Denise was supposed to be with us but she's been dealing with some kind of severe chronic fatigue and can't make it. Please pray for her! Now we have to get her through this.)

We have the whole hour! What a treat to talk with Lynne Ford that long! We just love her. As I thought about the things we'll get to talk about, I was overcome with gratitude to God for the way He's moved in our lives. Even if things hadn't turned out as well as they did, we know that He is faithful and works everything out for our good even when it's hard.

But we've made it through this year! Di's hair is growing back and so are her eyelashes. :) Just looking at this sunset in Hawaii inspires me about God's goodness and power. Tune in Tuesday at 9:05 to hear us talk about the journey, things you probably haven't heard. It's going to be a fun hour of laughter, love and books. :)

And now what are YOU most thankful for this year? Anything we can pray about for you?

I've been doing a lot of radio interviews lately, thanks to publicist Jeane Wynn, and thought I'd share a few tidbits I've learned along the way. (i.e. the hard way).


1. Turn off call waiting before going on air.

2. Stay hydrated to avoid Dry Mouth Syndrome.

3. Do not do interviews on cell phones unless you want awkward silences punctuated by overlapping voices, punctuated by awkward silences then overlapping voices and on and on for twenty painful minutes.

4. Too much fluid before the interview and you'll have more on your mind than answering questions. :-/

5. Note to self: Keep notes handy in case mind goes blank. It will.

6. Children and live radio do not mix.

7. Do not drink carbonated beverages while doing interview.

8. Have a fun story you default to in case interview takes a boring turn.

9. Do not drink Rock Star prior to interview which is both carbonated and loaded with caffeine. If you do drink Rock Star, pace while talking. Better still, jumping jacks.

10. When possible, do interviews with friends. It's a party waiting to happen.
The above photo is a radio interview with WBCL in Indiana. We had a blast!
