| | Comments (0)

CatholicMom.com has posted its next online book entitled Through the Open Window by Anne Faye. Here is the intro and beginning paragraph.

About the Book: Lucy Lyons is a woman trying to escape her past. Content to work as a librarian and live alone with her dog, all she wants is a simple life with no complications. When she decides to take the plunge and begins to write a novel during National Novel Writing Month, she gets much more than she bargained for. Her writing will not only force her to face her own secrets, but will also put her in the path of a handsome artist who shares her love of the written word. "Through the Open Window" is an engaging novel about second chances and the secrets we all keep.

About Anne Faye: Anne Faye is a homeschooling Catholic mom who writes from her home in Western Massachusetts. In her free time, she loves painting, quilting, and going for long walks with her dog. This is her first novel. Visit her blog at http://annefaye.blogspot.com

Chapter 1

I sat in the back of the room surveying my surroundings, clutching my notebook, desperately trying to fade into the woodwork. These people were writers! Conversations about plot concepts and writing techniques were going on all around me. What was I doing here? My boss Rachel had convinced me to come after I had casually mentioned seeing the flyer.

Me again. Yeah, I know, a lot of posts for one day but I’m waiting for the repairman and my desk has a view of the front of the house. So while I’ve been waiting I was checking out InsideCatholic.com and the online version of Crisis Mag. My sis EL used to work for Crisis before she got married and I’ve been meaning to check out their site since then. (Procrastination, anyone?) Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised to see a column from one of my fave authors Danielle Bean. She always hits the point home! I also wanted to check out something EL said about their Online Book Club but I think she said it wouldn’t be up until July 14. I guess I’ll have to wait. Well, I see the guy coming up the drive so I better go. Have a blessed weekend!

Update: Here's the link for the book club.
