Under the New Sun with @smalltownpoets [part one]
Smalltown Poets is a band that’s new to me but not new to the music scene. I got to talk with them a little through email in anticipation of their new album, Under the New Sun, that releases today. I’m sharing part one of that interview over at BibleDude.net. If you don’t know this group, I think you’ll enjoy getting to know them, a little about their music, and what inspires them to create words. Come on...
Linda Yezak: One-Word/One-Line Interview
Today I’m super excited to have my favorite redhead (next to Lucy–okay, ahead of Lucy) visit to share some of her deepest, darkest secrets. Linda Yezak is the author of Give the Lady a Ride, her debut novel. You can find my review here. I don’t know when I first “met” Linda or how–except that it was online, but I can’t wait to meet her in person. She exudes warmth and humor, and I can hear her giggle all the way from Texas to Michigan. Linda is also an editor with Port Yonder Press. Her bio there reads, “Linda lives in Texas, where ego is hereditary and exaggeration is an art form. She has a degree in English and teaches a creative writing class to a small group of women. Christian Romance Magazine has...
Jody Hedlund: One-Word/One-Line Interview
Today fellow Michigander, Jody Hedlund, takes a break from writing, teaching children, and fighting sock monsters to celebrate her birthday with us! Jody is a debut historical romance novelist, a double finalist in the 2009 ACFW Genesis Contest in Historical Romance. I found an empty shelf at our local Gift and Bible where The Preacher’s Bride should have been. I’m excited to welcome Jody as she tells us a little about herself in this One-Word/One-Line interview. And, if you join today’s party in the comments section, you will be entered in the drawing for a free autographed copy of her book.

A One-Word/One-Line Interview With A 7-Year-Old Author
Gracee never has enough paper. I find remnants of stories and song lyrics all over my house. She loves pens and colored pencils and markers and notebooks. She likes to give me writing advice. She’s very creative. And, yes, I’m prejudiced. She’s my granddaughter! We conducted this interview over a meal of Big Boy spaghetti. Thank you, Gracee, for taking the time to answer these questions.

Jennifer Hudson Taylor: One-Word/One-Line Interview
Jennifer Hudson Taylor writes historical and contemporary Christian fiction set in Europe and the Carolinas. Her debut novel, Highland Blessings, released this month, and the music on her video trailer (below) really gets to me. You can order a copy from Amazon and even a signed copy direct from the author here! How can you not love someone who has an ink bottle, quill pen, cardinal, and a dogwood blossom on her website and blog? Jennifer lives in North Carolina, and in addition to writing, she speaks on several topics related to faith, writing, and parenting special-needs children. She’s also a genealogy buff. I can’t wait to get to know her better. I accidentally asked her a couple questions (okay, three) that couldn’t be answered with just...

K.M. Weiland: One-Word/One-Line Interview
I’ve been stalking K.M. Weiland for some time. Hanging out at her website. Dogging her around the blogs. Soaking in life advice and writing wisdom. Admiring her gifts of detail and discipline. Immersing myself in the middle ages in her new book, Behold the Dawn. And she has such a sweet spirit. I want to be like her when I grow up. So since I wanted to get to know her even better, I asked if she could stop by my blog and answer a few brief questions. And she agreed! Since Katie’s novel is set in the set in the 12th century, I decided to ask her 12 questions in 2 categories. K.M. Weiland in One Word 1. Where would you go on the ideal vacation? Hawaii. 2. What was your first paid job? ...
