Thanks for sharing this Sheri, and for giving the interview Candace, it's always interesting to hear other writers true stories. I love that being an example to your daughter, even before she can appreciate it, motivates you.

Shameless self promotion:

If you have time please stop by, read and comment on my guest post for today over at Justine Dell's blog:

It's an interesting topic that will hopefully spark some discussion.

Thanks!

Thanks Ladies for another super insight!!

OMG! I just discovered and began following this blog about half an hour ago! Hi Candace. :-)

Hey Matt, I completely agree. An example for one's child is a great attribute.

C.L., you need no shield from the harsh rays of scoping eyes...no anxiety. *Grin a mile wide* And I LUV your picture!!!!!

Welcome, Shannon! So glad you found us. Got a lot of awesome folks here, including Ann Marie over yonder in Greece. ";-)

Loved this interview! Thanks for the chance to get to know Candace better!

You're welcome, Nicole. That's what the Graffiti Wall is all about. If you feel the need to take the plunge and splatter my wall with graffiti, feel free. I'd love to have you. Just give me a shout--really loud, though. I have four rugrats; I'm selectively deaf. ";-)

Great interview ladies! Candace, I loved getting to know more about you AND finally getting to see your face!

Good luck Candace with submitting. I think a lot of us start out and submit too early. Me included.

Yeah, you know Natalie even though we should wait I think sometimes it's a good thing, to make that mistake. It give you a much clearer and faster view of the publishing world. Uh, instant. Sure, but for some of us...me...it was the kick in the pants needed. ";-) I got rejected, but heard some good advice and even a few compliments. Wouldn't have got those without that mistake. So I guess, maybe, it wasn't a full mistake, eh'.

Thanks for visiting.
