A Letter from Chadwick

December 16, 2020December 11, 2020 Jacinta Meredith6 Comments

Last week, Chadwick wrote me a letter. I was laying in bed, staring at the ceiling fan, and suddenly, there it was. I thought I'd share it with you all: Dear Jacinta, I just wanted to congratulate you on sending that manuscript into that small publisher who promised to get back to you next week.… Continue reading A Letter from Chadwick

Would you like to know WHY it has been over a month since I've written? Because I have literally spent half (possibly over half) of my nights away from home - mostly work trips, though a couple personal, and in between trying to catch up on schoolwork! However, class is now over (officially ended yesterday… Continue reading Rejection and Life

A New Conquest

March 19, 2018March 19, 2018 Jacinta Meredith1 Comment

Dear Readers, For those of you wondering why the previous posts suddenly became private, here is the explanation: My husband and friend have been desperately trying to convince me to finish the story I am writing and then submit it for publication to a publisher like Love Inspired. After much entreating, I have agreed to… Continue reading A New Conquest
