A Radio Call In Show You Can Join Me For!

Ok, for all you writer mamas out there, here is a chance to listen in on a call in online show specifically focused on how to balance writing and family.  I have cut and pasted the info below, and hope that some of you will make a point to tune in.  Just go to the link at the bottom and type in the code provided to access the show.  You can also just listen in online.  Let me know if you have any questions.  I am looking forward to it! 

This show will be on Thursday evening, the 17th of May, from 7-8 eastern time.  If you can't listen in, it is available afterwards to listen to at your convenience just by clicking on a few links at the Talk Shoe page (see link at the bottom of this entry).

May. 16, 2007 - Great!

Posted by picketfencemom

This sounds wonderful. I went to the TalkShoe site and was so happy to find out that the broadcasts are also available afterwards in the archives (to listen or download) in case your readers aren't available during the 'live' broadcast tomorrow evening. Due to conflicts at that time, I won't be able to listen live, so I'm glad I won't miss the whole shebang! Technology is amazing!
I'm looking forward to it! Yay!
Have a blessed day!
Amy

My Book!



Using the personal stories of successful Christian writers, agents and editors, For the Write Reason helps writers of all levels learn from the experience of "insiders" in Christian publishing. The coordinating Bible study allows readers to delve into God's call on their own lives. Through this unique blend of encouraging words, advice and digging into God's word, writers are able to determine God's direction for their writing. Available for $17.99 from Proverbs 31 Ministries.
