Hi. I’m a wife, a mom, an artist, a sports addict, a freak, a geek, a practical joker, a thrill seeker and most importantly, a child of the Most High God. The purpose of my blog is to talk about writing and to spur some creativity. Thanks for stopping in. If you like what I write about, leave a comment. If you want me to research other writing-related topics, let me know and I’ll see what I can find out or invent.
To contact me, email me at luvfisk @ yahoo.com.
Hi, Courtney. It’s nice to meet you. I’m a child of said-same MHG, and came across your blog by surfing the “Writing” tag on WP’s dashboard.
I’m no one of consequence. Just a fellow wannabe writer, stopping in to say hello.
God bless you.
Hello, Courtney. Soulus Christus Writers Cafe gave me your web address. This is a really nice place you’ve got here.
In addition to being your sister in Christ, I am also a wife, mother (they grew up), freak and geek. I’m glad to meet you and will be back!
Thanks for stopping in. So nice to meet you too. I love making new friends.
Hi Courtney,
I’m also a writer, wanna be published author, mom and child (aren’t we all, some just don’t fess up to it)
Love your blog.
Thanks for stopping in, Shawna. Nice to meet you. I’m glad you like my blog. Do you have a blog yourself?
So, tracked you here from Christian Writer’s dot com. I admire the dexterity with which you have lassoed the Internet and are maximizing its potential. I’m a fellow writer and wordpress blogger (also on vox) as well as former resident of the Pacific Northwest. I’m going to link your site so I can keep up with you. What a blessing this is getting to do what we love.
Be well.

Hi. Thanks for stopping in, RG. It’s nice to meet you. I’ll check out your blog too.
Hi, Courtney.
Like others, I found you by searching out fellow writers. Gotta say I really love what you’re doing here. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for stopping in and leaving a comment. I’m glad you like my blog.
Merry Christmas Courtney!
Thanks for the thoughtful, well-organized Amazon review.
Ha! You’re right: coming up with a succinct proposal was no picnic.
In answer to the question of who the Collectors are…Yes, they are demonic manifestations. I thought that the Master Collector being Satan made that clear, as well as the issue of the pigs, and the number of times I call them “demonic.” Not to mention the fact they have been Separated from the senses after the rebellion of their Master. (We don’t see demons represented in physical form in Scripture, whereas angels–the Unfallen–are able to eat, take people by the hand, and be seen physically.)
I’m sorry I didn’t make this more clear, I guess, but I wanted to take on a post-modern idea of vampires and align in with biblical ideas without being relegated to only the Christian fiction section of the stores. I hoped this would cross boundaries and appeal to readers who appreciate spiritual ideas without being preached at.
In case you don’t know this, I had a contest on my website–the next person to post a review being the winner of an autographed copy of Haunt of Jackals, the coming sequel. Well, you won!
I actually won something? Cool!!! I didn’t know about the contest. Thanks for clarifying about the Collectors, Eric, and commenting on my blog.
Hi Courtney, yes I have a blog: writermomof5.wordpress.com I found you using the ‘writing’ tag on wordpress and have really enjoyed reading your posts.
Courtney, I have that copy of Field of Blood for you (or, if you’d prefer, a copy of Facing the Giants). If you email me your address at wilsonwriter@hotmail.com, I’ll get the book in the mail for you.
Again, thanks and congrats!
Hi Courtney,
I’m glad you commented on DarcKnyt’s blog as it led me to yours. Just thought I’d pop in and say hello. I look forward to exploring your site and sharing ideas:)
Hi Calliope. I’m so glad you visited my profile and took the time to read and comment. It’s nice to meet you. I recall your name on Darc’s profile from today. I’ll visit your blog as well.
Hi Courtney
I’m pretty new to blogging, but loving it so far. Great way to connect with other writers on the path to publication.Really enjoying your site. Cheers
Thanks for checking out my site. I’m gald you’re enjoying my posts.
Hey Courtney, LOVE the advice on finding one’s voice — I agree 100%. I am working on two things here — finding MY voice, and getting ready to teach my 6/7 grade language arts students how to find THEIR voices. It’s gonna be fun.
I’m curious to know if you’re familiar with the various poetry forms listed here: nestled poem, 55-word narrative, Samurai Death Poem, 6- Word memoir and “found” poems? They are great devices, I’ve used most of these (Samrai Death poem, not yet) on my blog. It has been fun playing with these styles. Check out “Smoke Em” on my blog.
Feel free to check out my poetry collection. If you have any questions or need clarification, just leave me a comment.

Thanks so much for stopping in. I’m a word nerd too. Nice to meet you. I’ve heard of some of those forms of poetry and short stories, and have done a couple. Fun!
Hi Courtney,
Stumbled on your blog after clicking the ‘writing’ tag on the WP home page. I love reading your blog. You’ve got a fan from across the atlantic! Will certainly buy your book WHEN you get published. Beeba xoxi
Awww. Thank you so much. Nice to meet you, Beeba. I’m so glad you found my blog and took the time to comment. Thanks for the support. Hopefully, I’ll find an agent soon. I just started my search.
Hi Courtney, I didn’t see an email contact for you, so I’m leaving this here. Since I’m really enjoying your blog, I just passed a couple of blog awards on to you in this post on my blog. If you’re not interested in passing them on, I understand, but if you are, the rules are covered in the post. Thanks for your inspiring writing!

Thanks. I’ll check it out. I know. I don’t know why i don’t have email contact. I was thinking maybe I could look for a widget, but then realized I could just put it in my bio. haha.
Hi Courtney!
I love your blog, and I looked at some links. It looks excellent. I think I’m going to check wordpress out. Great to hear you are a christian, as I am too.
I know you as Amarie from tNBW
anyway, see you around the site

Oh hi, Loulou. I’m so glad you paid a visit to my blog and took the time to comment. I highly recommend WP. It’s a great blog host. I have a Blogger blog too, and it lacks many of the features WP has, and this is more like a community. Over there it’s like you’re on an island and it’s hard to find people/blogs.
