The Friday evening Featured Speaker was Port Orchard resident, Debbie Macomber.  The audience was held in rapt attention as this author of inspirational stories, children's books and cookbooks, described her struggle to get her first novel published, while her family was in dire financial straights. 
 
The moral of her tale, was twofold:  There are no "overnight" successes and authors need a support network of friends and family to achieve said "overnight" success.
