I had a lovely time on vacation, emphasis on lovely:
Paulina Falls
Obsidian Flow
View from Mt. Bachelor at Sunset
Delicious Breakfast at the Sunriver Lodge
Crater Lake
But it was more than just beautiful views and great food - I had a fabulous time with family and friends. While sometimes it felt a little stressful with all the goings-on and keeping up with younger cousins, I really made such wonderful memories! I am truly blessed!!
There will probably be some more pictures and vacation stories in the coming days, but before I conclude this post I wanted to address the second part of the title. You see, I'm considering starting my own free-lance editing business - hence the poll in the sidebar. Hopefully I will have more to share on this soon, but it would mean a lot to me as I send out some feelers if you would honestly let me know if you (if you're a writer) or someone you know might consider using the services of a free-lance editor. And it would especially mean a lot to me if you could pray for God's guidance as I test the waters!
If it is God's will, I would love to use my passion for stories, my experience with editing/proofreading, and my education (Bachelor's degree in English) to encourage and assist authors in their writing. We'll see where God leads!
For now, I'm back to blogging - and I look forward to interacting with you all again!
AMBER! I'm so happy you had a great time, dear friend! Thank you for sharing these beautiful (and yummy!) pictures! :) Looking forward to hearing more about your trip!
ReplyDeleteAnd will definitely be praying for you concerning your free-lance editing idea. The Lord has blessed you with so many talents and gifts for His glory, I know He has a great plan for you. May He lead your heart and guide your every step, opening the right doors, shutting the wrong doors, giving you peace no matter what and a clear vision of His will. Continue to seek Him, for the more time we spend with Him the easier it is to hear His voice. :)
Blessings,
Amanda
