Free Book Drawing

Last Wednesday, I ran an interview with Tricia Goyer about her historical novel, A Valley of Betrayal. She mentioned that she's also a non-fiction writer. And you can enter to win a new copy of her book, Generation NeXt Parenting. How? Post a short anecdote about something one or both of your parents did right and I'll enter your name in a drawing to be held Tuesday morning. Not a parent? Win it for a friend you love.

Something my parents did right: They gave me more than an allowance to manage. By the time I reached high school, I also received a monthly allotment for school lunches, clothing, giving, and stuff like class rings and graduation fees. I knew if I didn't learn the discipline of delayed gratification, I'd have to wear outdated clothes (nerd alert!) or a too-small coat the following winter.
