By the way... Funds are being collected for author Sandi Rog's uninsured cancer treatments -- she was diagnosed with stage 4 lymphoma on the same day her debut novel released in November of last year. This is the last week to donate, as the fundraiser will close on Christmas Eve, but there is some big stuff going on these last seven days. First of all, all donors will be entered into a drawing for one of four Amazon.com gift cards, which will be awarded on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday nights. Every $2 you donate gets you one entry into the raffle. Also (many of you writers will want to click over and learn more about this) one donor will be awarded with their registration paid in full for the 2012 ACFW conference this September in Dallas. And just today, a $1000 matching donation was pledged, meaning that all donations between now and Thursday will be matched, up to $1000! Please consider clicking over to donate and bless Sandi and her family (husband and four children) as she fights for her life. It's been a very scary and faith-challenging year for them. You can help make 2012 a year of blessing and health. Thanks.

Am I allowed to shed tears of thanks? I'm getting your blog all slobbery and wet.

Thank you for this, Chip. So glad you're back to share all your knowledge about publishing.
