    Thanks, let me just say for the record I do NOT think the only difference between Christian fiction and secular is the lack of cuss words. I think I must have been talking about some stories, hopefully, not all. Hopefully not mine :-)

    This is so cool, Gina. I'm so thrilled to see you finally get your "day" especially after some of those long, dark nights you persevered through.

    Congratulations. You deserve every bit of the good stuff.
