Are you conquering the Ivanhoe menu? I'm sure you're attacking that list, whatever it is, with as much perseverence and joy as you put into your writing, music, and friendships. <br /><br />Cute pics!

The one question left hanging is whether you do or don't like maraschino cherries on your sundaes, but I trust that will be answered in some future interview.

I was privileged to be in the ACFW choir this year, and was amazed at how Rachael formed a choir with no regular meeting place, a computer, and little speakers. <br /><br />I love reading about where a writer "started." My favorite? Ambition - Singing star (like Barbra Streisand) or Missionary! LOL <br /><br />I'm not a Hoosier, being from KY, but I did graduate from High School in Martinsville, IN, so I have a little bit of Hoosier influence. I will definitely be looking for Rachael's books!Regina Merrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01222193373777014037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8823119129056618409.post-2614384270369932612010-10-05T09:19:03.772-04:002010-10-05T09:19:03.772-04:00Thanks, Crystal, for your generous words and this ...Thanks, Crystal, for your generous words and this neat opportunity to connect with your readers.<br /><br />So glad you enjoyed the interview, Sharon!
