In any case, I have been busy writing, though, as well as doing some behind-the-scenes work on the blog. In the last edition of The Catholic Post, I had two news articles.
I told a few friends that I was amazed at how long it took me to write these articles, when I used to write multiple articles in a day, no problem. Of course, back then, I didn't have a husband, children or a household to keep running. Part of it too was that I was in the habit of doing so, and could easily crank out a lot of words easily. Writing news stories takes a lot longer these days for me. But I did enjoy the challenge.
Let me share first The Catholic Post link to my article on Abby Johnson's appearance at St. Jude in Dunlap. I saw many familiar faces there, and it was great to catch up, as well as get the chance to interview Abby before her talk and get the scoop on her new book (of course I asked) called The Walls are Talking.
Here are a few of my photos from the event:
Here is Abby giving her talk.
Here is a sadly too dark--even after editing--photo of Bonnie Engstrom with Abby.
And here's another too dark one, and blurry, photo of Bonnie and Abby.
And here's yet another (dark) photo of the beautiful Marcia, and her beautiful daughter.
Clearly, I need to get a major tutorial from my husband on how to use his camera. He let me borrow it that evening. Whenever he takes photos with it, they look like from a professional photographer. When I use it, all that I get is ....bad cell phone snaps.
Did you go to the Abby Johnson talk? What did you think about it?
Soon, I will post about my other story for The Catholic Post this month.
