When We Press Pause

As you read this, I’m wobbling around my home church for the last night of VBS, Vacation Bible School. Our theme this year was SonQuest jungle, and the verse is John 3:16. Although I blog ahead, what a great class. They are a kind, sweet, and hungry for Jesus kind of group. Once the decorations…

My 12 in 12 Summer Update

Posted on June 28, 2012June 26, 2012Author JuliePosted in About Me, Julie Arduini, Life Lessons, surrender, Writing

Patty Wysong has a great meme going called 12 in 12, listing 12 goals for 2012. Here is my update. 1. Finish my first manuscript. I was getting there, and then I broke my wrist, my writing wrist. I can type, but at an angle that hurts after 1500 words. My priority is to finish…

Trial and Error, Mostly Error

Posted on June 27, 2012June 26, 2012Author JuliePosted in About Me, Julie Arduini, Life Lessons, surrender4 Replies

There was a lot I should have been doing, but I decided to play with my website instead. I’ve been blogging since 2007 and I’ve learned everything from trial  and error, mostly error. These days I use Host Gator to host my site, and I’ve had zero trouble. From there, I’ve went with a WordPress…

Posted on June 26, 2012June 26, 2012Author JuliePosted in About Me, Julie Arduini, Life Lessons, surrender, Writing

One more week after this and the A2Z meme is done. I really had fun with this. No pressure on Patty Wysong, but I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next. Today is the letter “Y.” I thought I’d share a confession with you–there is a part of me that wishes I…

Character Confession: I Wish You Owned a Drive-In

Posted on June 23, 2012June 19, 2012Author JuliePosted in About Me, Julie Arduini, Life Lessons1 Reply

It’s been about a month since I blogged about my 2011 drive-in experience. Since then, I’ve received so much feedback regarding how to handle it. Facebook, e mails, phone, and in person. There wasn’t one piece of bad advice. So I thought I’d share an update. Although I haven’t been back to the drive-in, my…

When You Have to Say Goodbye–to a Book

When You Have to Say Goodbye–to a Book

Posted on June 22, 2012June 19, 2012Author JuliePosted in About Me, Christians Read, Julie Arduini, Life Lessons, surrender, Writing

This is a post I started over at Christians Read, and a great discussion took place on my Facebook Writing page. I thought while I rest the wrist, I’d ask you the same question–when it came to an author and/or a book, did you have to break up? What made you walk away? I had…
