Disappearing for a Bit

by Marcus on August 27, 2007

Last week, I discovered to my dismay that I can no longer attend the American Christian Fiction Writer’s conference in Dallas. It’s my own fault, but I’m not real happy about it.

At any rate, for that reason and several others, I’m taking the week off on Good Word Editing. I need to get recentered and refocused. Love you guys. See you in September.

I’m sorry I won’t be able to meet you at ACFW. I was looking forward to it.

First LL takes off for Sabbath, now you’ve decided to check out for a week… will this corner of the blogging world survive?

I’m sorry to hear that, Mark. I know you were really looking forward to it.

Have a good break, though. See ya next week.

sorry things have gone askew – I hope that you will be still and remember that God is God – and they will be righted soon

Sorry to hear about that, Marcus. As others have said it will all shake out well in the end, in the Lord. Hope you get or have had some great rest.

Well, you will have to take the time to write the next great American novel then. What other recourse do you have?

Hope your time away truly is refocusing. I know mine was.
