Newspaper Articles
So, I was in the Pea Ridge paper, the Rogers paper, and the Bentonville paper. Cool, eh? I'm still not used to people coming up and congratulating me... Maybe I'll get used to it in the long run

My First Saving Account
So... After I was on the news, I was on the radio (i missed it, but whatever) and Community First Bank heard it on the radio, and they emailed us asking if I would like to open a savings account and to do a book signing at the bank. So, today we went to the bank and set up a savings account. Cool, eh? I have $20 in it!!! Yay me!

Well, I received an email about copy editing and conceptual editing. Here are the differences said in the email...
* Copy editing reviews your manuscript technically, double-checking correct punctuation, misspellings, and formatting (such as Scripture and dialogue).
* Conceptual editing works more in-depth with your manuscript and you, the author, giving special attention to plot formation, character development, dialogue, supported arguments, etc., as well as double-checking punctuation, misspellings, and formatting.
Interesting, eh? This month is going to be pretty quiet, but the next few will be more exciting. Well, as my good friend Porky the Pig would say...
"Th-Th-Th-Th-Th-That's all, folks!"
