It is heading into that glorious season of fall. The air gets crisp, the trees explode in vibrant colors. It is time for pumpkin pie, eggnog, and cuddling up on the couch with your gal at your side.
Oh, did I forget to mention FOOTBALL!
I have some international readers, and I know that football = soccer to them. Trust me, I love the beautiful game. But there is something about that oblong brown pigskin that gets my blood pumping. My favorite team is the Dallas Cowboys. I know, love ’em or hate ’em, there’s no in-between. I’ve been a fan for 25+ years, so I’ve suffered and cheered (but no one knows suffering like a Philly sports fan, right Mark?)
Anyway, some family and friends have a fantasy football league we play through Sportsline. However, we could use a few more players to fill out a 12 team league. If you love football or just want to try out this crazy fantasy thing, leave a comment and I’ll get you the information. We have fun, doing trash talk in a Christian way (“Dude, your team needs deliverance!”)
Are you ready?
Are you ready for some football?

Today I am supposed to be part of a blog tour for Mary DeMuth, aka relevantgirl. She is a visionary author who is living in France to live out a life for Jesus in that country. She is the author of several books, both fiction and non-fiction. Currently she has a new book called Authentic Parenting in a Postmodern Culture.
I mainly focus on fiction at this blog. I have been invited to participate in other blog book tours for non-fiction books, but I haven’t chosen to accept. No slight to those other authors, but this time I felt a leading to be a part of Mary’s tour.
Unfortunately, I haven’t received my copy to read yet. So if you are following a link to this blog regarding Authentic, I will have to disappoint you for the time being. I will be participating at a later date, and look forward to reading this book and giving you an honest review. As a father of boys aged 7, 5, and 3, I can use all the authenticity I can lay my hands on!
So please check back in a couple of weeks. Check out some of the other fine posts here while you’re at it, and go to Mary’s relevant blog for a list of those on the tour this week.

I’ve come across a new friend with a great blog that talks about the heart issues a Christian writer goes through. Nicole has some great, sometimes challenging insight. I encourage you to check out Into the Fire when you get a chance.
She has started a little feature of posting the work of an unpublished writer each Saturday. A preview of what’s to come (hopefully). Tomorrow she will post the first chapter of my Work-in-Progress, tentatively called Beauty of the Broken. I’ll post the link and hope you will check it out. I’d love any feedback any of you would have. Oh, and I’m not sold on the title, so maybe a “name that novel” contest could happen as well! Here’s the direct link to the first chapter.
Thanks Nicole. Thanks to anyone who gives it a read!
