We have some changes here at Overcoming With God blog this year in 2017.
In December, 2016, we said goodbye to our wonderful Aussie Angel, Noela Nancarrow, who did such an amazing job reviewing books. While we will miss our dear friend, we wish her well -- both in health and in her own writing (devotionals) as God has led her to do.
In February, 2017, our beloved Senior Reviewer, Angel Girl Diana L. Flowers, AKA Malibu Barbie, will be "retiring" from the blog. She will be greatly missed! But first we have to party, which will also celebrate her first guest post on the blog six years ago and the start of her blogging with OWG!
What's different: We're aiming for at least one weekly post. Interviews will remain on Sunday/Mondays. Teresa Mathews, who is battling breast cancer, continues as our poetess.
Bonnie Roof, also battling cancer, will be doing periodic book reviews. Keep praying for her and Teresa's full recoveries.
Since Carrie is part of the My Heart Belongs series from Barbour Publishing, we'll be featuring the authors from this series and reviews. Carrie will continue to review audiobooks and some ebooks and paperbacks in Christian fiction. We'll continue to do giveaways but will be doing fewer giveaways on the blog, and pointing you toward other giveaway opportunities.
Once Carrie's brand new website is up and running, she'll be setting up her own weekly blog spot here on OWG, where she'll be sharing posts related to her writing. Whew! Lots of changes! But we pray our readers will be blessed by what we're doing here at Overcoming With God blog --
*reviewing Christian fiction
**sharing testimonies of overcoming and of coping with life's challenges
***encouraging through poetry
****and sharing Carrie's writing journey.
Many blessings to all of our readers!!!
