I stayed at home with my baby until she was almost two. I was home with my daughter and I wrote several books during that time. Two hit the the inspirational bestseller's list on Amazon and the third was picked up by Harlequin. I knew it would take me a decade to make a living writing, and I was okay with that. Then a change of circumstance forced me to find a day job. But having been out of the workforce for a while, the job I found paid okay but in all other regards was horrible. It was sucking the life out of me and my family. Then I realized, I'm working on a terminal degree in Creative and Professional Writing. I've hit the bestseller's list twice and queried with a 50% full request rate, snagging an agent and editor. I have skills people can use and working for myself allows me to be home with my daughter and continue my love affair with fiction. To kick this off I'm giving away a one chapter critique to the first two people who comment that they would like one and there is a rafflecopter below for a $10 Amazon Gift Card. a Rafflecopter giveaway
