I was surprised to start reading them and find out they were written by such great authors. And as for being on schedule, I'm not either, but I'm writing right now and hoping to make up the word count I'm missing. Good luck on your writing! I'm going to keep plugging along, so I'm sure you can, too. -Rachel Hey Assentia,

Tony's book sounds interesting, and I've heard enough about him to respect him as a football coach. I'm not a big football person, but I love to hear stories about faith and things like that, so that might be an interesting read. Thanks for letting me know about it!

I'm nowhere near on schedule, but I've already written about three times what I managed last year. I don't know if I'll rake up the remaining wordage in ten days, but no sweat; I do it for the pep talks anyway. I’m doing it for the second time.

I've been a little behind on fresh reads as of late but I've recently finished Tony Dungy's book "A Quiet Strength" and eagerly await the arrival (scheduled for Feb. 2009) of the release of his next book entitled "uncommon". If you don't mind sifting through football lingo and game by game recaps "A Quiet Strength" is a great book about faithfullness in times of peril. He talks openly about his son's suicide and how it has affected him and his family. Weisberger’s book sounds interesting, thanks for the brief review.

My husband came across an article (http://i-newswire.com/pr220892.html) with some info about background checking neighbors. I thought that may be a little overboard, but it had some other good suggestions for some precautions I haven't thought about. Last year my youngest son came down with a massive fever after Halloween. I almost thought about just taking the kids to our church's fall festival this year instead of door-to-door to prevent that from happening again. I don't know yet. What's your advice? Am I over-reacting or just being a concerned mom? Whats everyone doing for safety precautions for Halloween?
