Hi there! Thanks for stopping by my shoutlife page. If you get a chance, follow me on Twitter at www.twitter.com/pennyzeller and check out my blog at www.pennyzeller.wordpress.com.
I am a wife to my wonderful husband, Lon (of 17 years, wow!!! - yes, we got married really young!), mother of two elementary-aged daughters, and a Christian author/speaker.
My newest book, titled "McKenzie" is scheduled for release by Whitaker House in September 2010 and is the first in a three-part series of historical Christian romance novels. I am also the author of numerous articles in national and regional publications.
I was bitten with the writing bug at age seven when I began writing Bible stories in my own words. I also wrote fiction stories about a dog named Muffie and her adventures, as well as other short stories neatly composed in homemade wallpaper-covered cardboard books.
I am excited to be breaking into writing women's fiction. I owe all my inspiration to the Lord - He truly is amazing!
My passion is to is to use the gift of writing the Lord has blessed me with to further His Kingdom.

Glad you're doing well.
John & I both missed each other especially on Valentine's Day, so I know about that.
When will your Hubby be back home?
John's traveling Alaska right now & visiting friends before he comes here. :)
I'm good, just counting the days now.

God bless you Penny I had a sinus infection earlier this year and I thank God for antibiotics. I sure hope you get to feeling better soon. I know how hard it is to sleep when you cannot breathe through your nose. I already said a prayer for you.
