Hello? Is this thing on? Wow, I let a little more time slip by than I intended, but wedding planning takes up a wee bit o’time. We’re at the 5-week mark and most of the details are sorted out, so now I’ve moved on to the little things. This weekend several ladies are coming over …
Hi everyone! How’s the new year treating you? I’ve been busy as always and have tons to share. First, my lovely friend Erica Chapman interviewed me about FLICKER. I’ve continued to receive wonderful feedback (check out the reviews on Amazon and Goodreads) and am excited for what 2013 will bring for my baby. To answer …
What can I say, I’m popular… This time my dear friend June “Bug” Kramin had me answer a whole different set of questions than Richard. So if you’re concerned there are still things you don’t know about me, click away! Interview With Melanie Hooyenga ~ Flicker

I’m two shakes from finishing the formatting, then I’m shipping it off to my awesome partner Natasha at eBook Artisans, then it will hit the virtual bookshelves! (I also have …

You’d never know the cuteness hiding inside these ordinary-looking boxes, but that wasn’t on my mind when I they arrived.

I’ve mentioned before that my basement is a complete disaster. Well, yesterday I found an ad for metal shelves on sale and zipped off to my local non-Home Depot store to remedy the situation. After 20 minutes of searching for said shelves, then looking for an employee who absentmindedly told me they’re sold out, I …
