I’m in Texas! Last night I gave my Girl Talk in Houston, launching a 5 day tour I’m taking through the Lone Star state, speaking in San Angelo, Seminole, Austin, and San Antonio. I’m here with my friend Tammy, and we are just loving how warm it is. Tammy lives in Quebec City and she left behind 6 feet of snow. I’m in southeastern Ontario and I left behind 2 feet of snow. Seventy degrees is seriously better!
I met a bunch of people from the blog yesterday, too. I guess I have a lot of readers in Texas, and many came out to say hi and take some pics. So much fun to actually connect in person to people who read me everyday!
And I met J. Parker from Hot, Holy and Humorous! J and I have been online buddies for years, and we’ve talked on the phone, but never actually met. She took us out for lunch and we caught up, and then she came to the event. Here we are holding each other’s books.
I spend the first part of my talk discussing how God designed sex and why on earth He made men and women relate to sex so differently (believe me, there’s a reason). Then we have a break, and during the break people have the opportunity to leave anonymous questions. After the break I answer as many as I can in 15 minutes, and then talk about how to make sex great in three different ways–spiritually, physically and emotionally.
It’s funny, because I can almost always predict what 6 of the questions will be. I usually always get them. And then at each venue there are always a few new ones, which makes it fun.
But every Monday I usually post a reader question and answer it, and I’m sorry that I don’t have time to do that today. But it occurred to me that you all may not realize that I do have a place where you can look up my answers to the most frequently asked problems. Almost all the emails that come in relate to questions that I have already answered on the blog–you just may not know where to find those answers.
So since I don’t have time to post today, I thought I’d point you all to the one central place that you can likely find answers to some of the things that are bugging you. Here it is–my Marriage FAQ.
If you’re in the Austin/San Antonio/Seminole area, I hope to see you this week! Just click on “Events” above to get taken to my schedule, or take a look on Facebook. And I know that next year I’ll be heading through Chicago, Louisiana, and Texas again, as well as booking other states. So if you’d like to be included in the tour, just email Tammy.

Sheila Wray Gregoire has been married for 29 years and happily married for 24! She loves traveling around North America with her hubby in their RV, giving her signature "Girl Talk" about sex and marriage. And she's written 7 books. About sex and marriage. See a theme here? Plus she knits. Even in line at the grocery store.
Welcome to Texas. Good time of year to come down and enjoy our nice weather!
How cool to meet J! Admire both of you amazing pioneers! Blessings!
A face to go with my voice! Thanks, Belah.
Part of me is geeking out that two of my favorite bloggers are in the same picture. And the other part is feeling really immature for geeking out about that.
If I’d realized you were going to be in San Antonio, I would have told my mom and sister to go with a couple friends! It’s a bit of a drive for my family, but their friends are right there in San Antonio, and I’m sure it would be a great thing for them to go to. Maybe next time!
Aw, thanks!
And since Sheila’s on the road, I’ll pop in here and let you know that Sheila will be in San Antonio on the 12th! Maybe you could catch her after all? http://sheilawraygregoire.com/event/san-antonio-area-girl-talk/ It’s a great event, and I highly recommend it!
Sheila, you look so pretty in pink – enjoy the adventure and may God hold you close as you trust in Him!
Awww nuts I missed you and you were in my hometown!! I also didn’t realize that J from Hot, Holy, Humorous is local??? I would have loved to meet both of you because you have both made such a great impact on me and my marriage. I’ve been so grateful for both of your blogs as a single woman approaching marriage through my newbie years (we are married 2 years on March 9!). You’ve had so much helpful information for me, it would have been fun to get my picture with you (especially since I’m currently 36 weeks pregnant bahaha, big preggo momma with her favorite marriage bloggers heh heh).
It looks like Sheila will be back in Texas again next year! Hope to see you then. (By that time, you’ll really enjoy that girls’ night out.)
So great to see two of my fav bloggers!… I did a double (possibly triple) take to read that Hot, Holy, & Humorous’s “J” had agreed to a picture! Whatttt!!!! 😀 love you guys for all the biblical and positive light you shine into the otherwise fairly untalked about subject of sex. Y’all are awesome.
Thanks, S! I vouch that Sheila is just as wonderful in person.
J, it’s awesome to finally put a face to the name! I love your blog (even though I’m not married), I still read it just to laugh sometimes, and because you have answered many questions that I had. Thank you and God Bless You! Again, it’s nice to finally “meet” you!
