The Write Hoarding

August 3, 2015 By Verna Bowman 10 Comments

So, the other day a squirrel boldly invited himself to join friend Lori and I for lunch while sitting down by the pond at the Greater Philly Christian Writers Conference.

My mom used to say, “Don’t let people get the best of you.” You have met people who’ve tried to drain empty your best, haven’t you? Me, too. We live in a day when everyone is offended by something. And maybe we wake up with an attitude just waiting in our thin-skin to get offended. We are all oh-so-human, and you may … [Read more...]
