3 C’s – It’s Friday

Posted on by Katie Ganshert

Two Day Post Surgery 

Cares:
I’m officially entrenched in revisions for book two, Wishing on Willows.

Concerns:
The revisions are making me feel like a turtle. I was hoping to get a lot more accomplished yesterday than actually got accomplished.

Trying not to worry about things outside of my control. 

Celebrations:
Wildflowers from Winter won Clash of the Titles for May. It was a very fun, unexpected surprise!

Hubby is home and recuperating. The surgery couldn’t have gone any better and the kidney loves its new home. 

Come celebrate Casey Herringshaw’s birthday tomorrow! There will be lots of fun giveaways and all kinds of fun! Plus, she shares a birthday with the best guy on the planet. Ryan turns 33 tomorrow. 

Let’s Talk: What are your cares, concerns, and celebrations this week? 

3 C’s – It’s Friday!

Cares:
On Thursday, July 5th, my husband will be donating his kidney to his younger brother. 

Four of my old fifth grade students (who are now going into seventh grade) came over this week for a mini-writing camp. These girls are not only enthusiastic writers (and hilariously fun), but super talented. Way more talented than I was at that age! I’ve loved sharing advanced writing techniques with them.   

Concerns:
Colorado and the fires. My publishing house, my agent, and some writing friends live in Colorado Springs. Praying for their safety and for all the heroic firefighters. 

We are the proud new owners of a Beta fish named Tipsy. Or Sally. Brogan hasn’t made up his mind yet. Last night, I caught him feeding her goldfish crackers and markers.

Celebrations:
All the planning, all the time, all the energy was completely worth it. We raised one third of our adoption expenses at our fundraiser last weekend. So incredibly grateful to everyone who helped and participated!

Wildflowers from Winter was nominated for “Great Christian Fiction May Releases” on Clash of the Titles. If you enjoyed my debut novel and you have a minute, I’d love your vote!

My husband is nearly a perfect match and Brett gets a new kidney! So excited to see him healthy and freed from dialysis. I keep telling Brogan that his daddy is a hero.

Let’s Talk: What are your cares, concerns, and celebrations this week? I love it when you share!

In celebration of Independence Day, and because we’ll be in the hospital, I won’t be blogging next week. Hope you have a happy Fourth of July!

I was interviewed on a church blog in Texas. Melissa, the children’s ministry director, asked some really great questions, like who’s my favorite Bible figure and why. Hop on over for a chance to win a signed copy of my debut novel.
