Hey friends!
Yay! It's that time! Time to celebrate the release of my brand NEW book that came out today "Yes, You Can"! :) I'm super excited you've come to join me today and we'll be having lots of fun! :) I'm sorry this is a bit late. Unfortunately, I am running behind schedule and rushing around so if I don't get to reply to all of your comments, please forgive me. :) Thank you for coming, I so appreciate it <3 To start this party right we're going to have a quick Q&A! Ask me anything you want about writing, publishing, my books, or just whatever, haha! :) Also let me know who you are and that you're here! Shortly I'm going to be posting some giveaway details! And a one-sided Q&A is no fun so here are some questions for YOU to answer too! :) 1) Have you read either of my books and if so, which was your favorite? 2) What is your favorite Bible verse? 3) What is your favorite ice cream flavor? Let's do this! It's time to party! ;) Whoo-hoo! ♥

Hmm, let me think about some questions... ;)
Bella Morganthal
4/30/2017 05:43:55 pm
Ooh, great question, Grace! "How to Self-Publish Your Book" by Tiffany Schlichter would be my first recommendation. ;) I know the Schlichters personally and this is a great guide :)
Hi!!! I'm here!
Grace
4/30/2017 05:45:31 pm
Hi Bethany! I don't think I've officially "met" you before!...?? ;) Thank you for all the work you do in Bella's magazine though! I enjoy the interviews you and Kenzie switch off doing! :) (the Royal Talkshow is the column you co-host, right?)
Bethany
4/30/2017 05:47:39 pm
Hi Grace!
Grace
4/30/2017 05:50:53 pm
Well, it's nice to finally "meet" you then! :) xD Bella and I've only known each other a little over two years ;)
Bethany

Hi Olivia! Us columnists need to come up with a cool name for our group...
Olivia Bell
4/30/2017 05:58:53 pm
Oh, cool! yeah, haha, work can drain all our thinking capabilities, haha! Yes, us columnists do need a cool name.... hmmm...
Bella Morganthal
4/30/2017 05:48:58 pm
Yes of course I know you dear ;) <3 oh I've been thinking about this book for a year and I was super inspired to write it because I wanted to encourage along other writers who might be feeling lost or discouraged and help them know they can keep going :)
Olivia Bell
4/30/2017 05:51:15 pm
Hi Bethany! It's nice to meet another King's Princess columnist! I enjoy reading the Royal Talkshow too! Do you enjoy my columns? =)
Bethany
4/30/2017 05:55:18 pm
Turtles are great 😉🐢 and for me, Life cereal is the best 😊
Grace
4/30/2017 05:46:58 pm
Hi Beth! So glad to "see" you here! :) How are you? Are your friends still there in KY? ;)
Grace
4/30/2017 05:52:47 pm
Don't worry about replying while your friends are still there, Beth! Shout out to Syd for me! ;) Is she here with you right now?
Livy
4/30/2017 05:55:54 pm
Oh, yeah, Beth, say hi to Sydney for me!!! I know you're all having a blast!! :D
Grace
4/30/2017 05:59:38 pm
Hi Sydney!!!!!!!! :D I hope you're having a great time over there with Beth! :)
Olivia
4/30/2017 06:00:46 pm
Hey Sydney!!! I want you to come visit me, can you do that? =)
Livy
4/30/2017 05:48:08 pm
hey Beth!! I love Cookies and Cream too!! AHH!
Bella Morganthal
4/30/2017 05:50:58 pm
Hey Beth! I got this idea about a year ago for this book just because I wanted to encourage other writers and writers asked me all the time about writing so that's why I wrote this guide :)
Bella Morganthal
4/30/2017 05:46:13 pm
Hey girls my computer is frozen currently so I'm trying to reply on my phone but it might not let me keep up with your comments well so you can chat amongst yourselves if you want till this gets fixed xD
Olivia Bell
4/30/2017 05:46:36 pm
I've read The King's Princess and Worth It All, and Worth It All really touched my life so it's my favorite! But, I haven't read Yes, You Can yet so maybe it'll be my favorite!!!
Grace
4/30/2017 05:48:08 pm
I'll take Extreme Moose Tracks! :D
Livy
4/30/2017 05:49:33 pm
How did I know that one? Eh?? Haha! Do you like Strawberry though?
Grace
4/30/2017 05:53:36 pm
Hmm, Idk! ;) :P
Livy
4/30/2017 05:54:45 pm
Hmph. The strawberries mourn your dislikes. Mwahahaha! I'm weird! =)
Grace
4/30/2017 06:00:49 pm
Don't worry, Livy -- I still love strawberries ;) They're my besties when it comes to fruit, lol! xD I just only like them BY THEMSELVES. Or dipped in chocolate :)
Livy
4/30/2017 06:02:31 pm
Haha, you made the strawberries happy, LOL! Oh, dipped in chocolate? Those are epic! My dad and I made those for my mom for Valentines Day one year! They were great!
Bella Morganthal
4/30/2017 06:02:06 pm
Aww thank you so much, Livy <3 That means a lot :)
Grace
4/30/2017 05:55:31 pm
Okay, another question for you, Bella! :)
Bella Morganthal
4/30/2017 06:04:19 pm
Yay! :) Ooh, that varies on the book really. I Dare You took me several months, and Yes You Can took me about two months. It depends :) if I get all my editing done before I begin the publishing process, I can complete it in about a month. But if there's still editing to do during the publishing process that delays things :P
Bethany
4/30/2017 06:00:58 pm
Hey Bella, when you get famous enough to go on book signing tours, can I tag along as your manager?!
Bella Morganthal
4/30/2017 06:02:38 pm
Oh, of course, dear xD You will be my hair and makeup stylist xD
Grace
4/30/2017 06:04:16 pm
Bella!! You need to host a young ladies' weekend conference!! Please, please, please, please!!?? :) *puppy dog eyes*
Olivia Bell
4/30/2017 06:05:03 pm
That would be cool, you'd have to let me tag along and be your..... um, how about wardrobe manager?? hahaha!
Bella Morganthal
4/30/2017 06:05:37 pm
That is my dream!!! And I would need you to come up, Grace and do the music! xD Please? xD
Olivia Bell
4/30/2017 06:06:06 pm
What a great idea, Grace!!! That would be so epic,!!! Bella, do it!! Please! *puppy dog eyes ever worse than Graces from watching Beorn do it every day*
Bella Morganthal
4/30/2017 06:07:07 pm
Haha, Livy!! I would love to ;) But you would have to come!!! ;)
Grace
4/30/2017 06:07:29 pm
Of course! I'll come up and do the music!! :) I can give a concert if you'd like xD
Livy
4/30/2017 06:08:15 pm
Bella, I seriously would come even if I had to walk there!!! Okay, that might be exagerating, walking from Idaho to PA would take forever!!!
Bella Morganthal
4/30/2017 06:10:32 pm
YES, Grace, a concert! ;)
Grace
4/30/2017 06:11:18 pm
Okay, Bella, so now that playing for your conference is on my bucket list (below), you HAVE to host one! :) xD
Livy
4/30/2017 06:12:12 pm
That is so sweet, Bella!!! Really!!! ;D We should totally do the conference, it would be so much fun!!! And we all know people we could get to come and speak and do music and such!
Grace
4/30/2017 06:20:04 pm
Bella has a great crew on her magazine team that could totally plan a great conference, haha ;) xD
Grace
4/30/2017 06:02:35 pm
Okay, so everyone!: what are some of your dreams or things on your bucket list? :)
Livy
4/30/2017 06:10:04 pm
Some of mine are:
Grace
4/30/2017 06:10:13 pm
Yup I figured you'd say that ;) For me personally, I want to volunteer at GKTW, go on a mission trip to Africa, teach music (think y'all knew that already though...), start a music ministry team, and, um... give a concert at Bella's weekend ladies' conference! ;) xD
Bella Morganthal
4/30/2017 06:04:57 pm
Hey girls!! So my computer is working now but I'm really behind on your comments so if I miss something or don't reply to something, I'm so sorry! :(
Bella Morganthal
4/30/2017 06:11:17 pm
Oh, lovelies, I'm so sorry I must go! I love you all dearly! I did two other posts about a giveaway and closing the blog party, but feel free to continue chatting with each other if you'd like :)
Grace
4/30/2017 06:12:19 pm
Thanks for hosting it, Bella! I had/am having fun! :) Sorry you have to go! :(
Olivia Bell
4/30/2017 06:13:52 pm
Farewell, Bella! I had a great time with you, you're such an epic friend and I'm so excited for your book!!!! :D
Olivia Bell
4/30/2017 06:16:04 pm
So who's still here? And in case anyone doesn't know, I'm also going by Livy!!
Grace
4/30/2017 06:18:39 pm
I'm here! It's like in the 80s here ;)
Livy
4/30/2017 06:20:22 pm
80's, seriously?!!! That's insane!!! Our spring is so slow, it is still in the 40s - 60's here, I'm not sure if we've reached 70 yet!!! And, our grass is just starting to grow, you've probably mowed already!! haha!
Grace
4/30/2017 06:21:34 pm
Yep, 80s! We are very thankful though, cause my sister Naomi was baptized today, outside, in a swimming pool. We were so relieved that it was warm enough! xD
Grace
4/30/2017 06:22:09 pm
And yes I got your email, Livy! Thanks! :) Is your first issue coming out tomorrow? ;)
Olivia Bell
4/30/2017 06:23:32 pm
No, unfortunately, I'm not ready yet, plus a lot of my columnists haven't send in their articles yet, but that's okay! My plan is to publish on June 1st, which I know sounds like so long from now, but it's not really! Are you excited for my mag?
Livy
4/30/2017 06:24:37 pm
Oh my!! I am so happy for your sister! And how perfect, in a swimming pool! I love swimming, haha! Do you?
Grace
4/30/2017 06:25:19 pm
Wow, that's great that you already have columnists! xD Would you be in need of an occasional photo or two? Something to motivate me to use my camera more xD Yes of course I'm excited! And yippee -- the issue will come out on my birthday! :) <3
Grace
4/30/2017 06:27:15 pm
My sister is 9. I was the first one she told when she accepted Christ this past year :') *starts happy crying* Oh yes, I love to swim! And I LOVE the beach! :) Although we hardly get to swim OR go to the beach, sadly :(
Livy
4/30/2017 06:27:42 pm
I would be most thrilled and honored to feature some of your photography! There is actaully a "Photo's from viewer" section, or I can spread them through the mag! I have a photographer and an artist already too! The Lord really has blessed my mag!!
Livy
4/30/2017 06:28:47 pm
*starts happy crying with you* that must have been so incredibly special!!!
Grace
4/30/2017 06:29:39 pm
Oh my!! I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT WE FORGOT TO WISH HER A HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!! I'm so mad at myself now xD :< Well, if you come back and see this... happy birthday, Bella! :)
Livy
4/30/2017 06:30:51 pm
Yes, here's to Bella!! 1, 2 3....
Livy
4/30/2017 06:31:36 pm
