Announcement: New Website, New Blog site

Hello!

Every five years, we authors are told, we need an updated author picture.  And since our author photos often form the basis of our website mastheads, maybe we need an updated website about that often, too.

On Friday, Lord willing, Angela Hunt Books.com will feature a brand new look.  And this blog will be moving to Word Press, a different blogging site.

If you have signed up for a blog subscription through Blogger, you'll have to move it--sorry for the inconvenience.  But if you simply visit my website every day and then click "blog," you won't have to change a thing.  The new WordPress blog will be featured right on the first page of the new website design.

So if you get some time on Friday, visit http://www.angelahuntbooks.com and let me know what you think of the new design.  I like it--probably because aqua is one of my favorite colors.  :-)  The design is clean and easy to navigate, so my hat is off to Author Media for the new design.

Thanks for your faithful reading over the years. Come join me over on the new site!

The Angela Hunt ipad/iphone app has a new look, too!

Matt Dancing

   

I don't know who this "Matt" is, but this video made me smile and then brought tears to my eyes--because it's beautiful, and because I couldn't help thinking of how God created such a diversity of people and he loves each and every one of them. A beautiful video, well worth watching. Enjoy. ~~Angie

Like Your iPad, Dad? LOL!

You don't have to understand the language to understand this one.  Daughter is asking how Dad likes the iPad she got him for Christmas.  :-)

Labor Day Weekend with Friends

Moi, Robin Lee Hatcher, Frank Peretti, Randy Alcorn, Terri Blackstock 

I've just flown home on the red-eye from Los Angeles to Miami and Tampa--I'm going on no sleep, but my heart is full and my spirit has been renewed (and my energy will catch up after a good night's sleep).

This past weekend my writing pal Bill Myers hosted several old friends for a few days of conversation, laughter, music, and prayer.  We have all been writing in the Christian publishing industry for 25+ years.  I joined my dear friends Terri Blackstock, Robin Lee Hatcher, James Scott Bell and his wife St. Cindy, Frank Peretti, Randy Alcorn, and Bill, of course, as we talked about personal and professional challenges.  We had church together on Sunday morning, and we laughed, wept, and prayed together.

Hanging out as Randy talks about heaven . . . 

Writers have writer friends, you know, and the friendship between Christian writers is sweet and supportive.  We are iron sharpening iron, and for years we have prayed and celebrated with one another.  But we don't often get to BE together in a casual situation--oh, we meet at conferences where we are busy teaching and mentoring and running around, but it's RARE that we get to hang out together in someone's back yard, munch on pretzels, and play with the resident dogs.

So this was a rare treat indeed.  Thank you, Bill and Brenda Myers for opening your home to us, and thank you, my writer friends, for understanding that I can't talk about the deep things in my heart without the spigots turning on and my voice getting all high and squeaky.

. . . and we listen. 

I love you all.  And I'll be meeting you at the throne as we pray for each other.

Now . . . let's get back to work!
