Joyful January
I don't know about you, but January is my most hated month of the year. It is usually gray, snowy, and cold. Yes, the snow can be beautiful at times, but the isolation that the snow creates by blocking roads and closing businesses is pretty awful. So this year I decided to try to alleviate some of the Winter doldrums by dubbing January as "Joyful January". For you, we will be offering TWO Amazon ebooks for FREE every Thursday and for me, I want to connect with you! Will be posting polls on social media for you to vote on throughout the month. Hopefully to start conversations and to make new friends in the Clean Fiction Community. Joyful January starts today with our first two magazines which are FREE right now on Amazon. (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C65TX7PX) I look forward to spending a Joyful January with all of you!

An End and a Beginning
We did it again! We hit #1 New Release on Amazon's Literary Criticism Reference list! That makes all 8 magazines that we have published a #1 New Release on Amazon. We are extremely blessed that this is the case. I honestly didn't think that we were going to make it this time, but I woke up on Boxing Day with this very happy surprise. The Winter Edition 2023 Paperback and Ebook are available on Amazon or sign up directly for a Yearly Subscription on our website (Powered by PayPal). Our direct subscription also saves you $ so don't wait!
As one year ends another is about to begin, and with it a brand new magazine starts the 3 month trek to publication. Our reviewers are already hard at work, and my inbox is already filling up with reviews for our Spring Edition 2024. It seems such a short time that I am able to breathe a sigh of relief and enjoy a finished magazine before I jump into the next one. But I must admit that I have it a lot easier than my family members who publish a local paper weekly for our community. God is good for allowing me a rest at all.
Anywho, enough mush for now! Onward to the next magazine! Our first contest starts accepting submissions on January 1st. The Windows into the Multiverse Writing Contest is coming up next on our calendar.
How to Participate: You are asked to write a micro-story beginning with “Through the window, I saw...” using the photo (Found on our website under "Contests"). The only restriction on your creativity is that you keep your micro-story clean. All genres are accepted. Submissions will open January 1-31.

We cannot wait to read what you write about this new image and are excited to read your submissions!
Clean Fiction Audio: Romance with Edge - Clean Fiction Audio Ep. 5 available now on Patreon and will release on YouTube (@CleanFiction) January 3rd. If you want early access to Clean Fiction Audio uploads you can sign up for as little as $1/month at patreon.com/cleanfiction.

8th Edition on Dec. 20th
As we count down to Christmas we are also counting down to the Winter Edition 2023!

Despite my near complete absence from social media in the last couple of weeks, the preorders are still coming in and the word about the Winter Edition 2023 is getting out there. You have my thanks.

Exciting News!
I have a super exciting announcement today, Clean Fiction Magazine is going audio, Clean Fiction Audio Episodes will begin to appear on our YouTube Channel: @cleanfiction. I could not have been more surprised by this nudge from the Lord, but when it became a full-on kick in the butt I could no longer ignore that this was the next step for Clean Fiction Magazine. What was the "kick in the butt" you may ask? Well, it started with an author friend of mine who voice message me one morning to tell me two things: she wasn't going to be able to send me the poem she had promised and the reason was that she had woken up legally blind. My first instinct after thawing from my shock was, "Why is she worried about me and Clean Fiction when she is going through such a crisis?" My next thought, of course, was prayer. Hovering my hand over my phone screen with her message (as I am prone to do in lieu of holding a person's shoulder) I spoke my prayer into the voice message recording and hit send. We talked back and forth for several days this way and I did my best to encourage her and she did her best to share her struggles. Her passion for writing and the written word was palpable, but she couldn't read anymore. "Well, I can do something about that." I thought to myself and so here I am with the fruits of that thought. But before that, I want to tell you the rest of my friend's story.
You see, I said to her via voice message that I really felt that God would restore her sight, which I really did feel was true at the time I said it, only to be absolutely crushed by her return message that said her doctors had confirmed that her loss of sight was permanent. I wept thinking of how my words must have hurt her and struggled with what to reply. I do believe I prayed for strength for her, but inside I was still crushed, imagining myself in her shoes. She had so many people praying for her including my own friends and family, but in my mind, it felt hopeless. Well, our God is a God of hope and He is also a God who answers prayers. And boy did He ever have a plan for my friend! Her sight was returned. She could see again! Tears, shock, praise, goosebumps, I couldn't contain the overflow of emotions. God had healed the blind right in front of me! He had used our prayers to create a miracle! It is not as if I don't understand the power of prayer or haven't seen Him perform miracles but this healing felt like the Bible coming to life. And I told everyone who prayed the amazing news! I felt like a firecracker and a lighthouse all at once. I wanted to show everyone His light. And that brings us to Clean Fiction Audio (YouTube: CleanFiction).
Just as my friend was unable to read our magazine there are many who love the Lord and love fiction but can only enjoy it in audiobook form. Now this in no way is to replace the Clean Fiction Podcast with Nathaniel Caldwell over on life-truth.com. If you have a passion for audio drama head over there. Clean Fiction Audio is simply a reading of reviews from our magazine for books that have an audiobook available. Many independent and small press books do not have audiobooks available, but for the ones who do they will be featured here. Unfortunately, I will not be able to do all of the reading for this. I am sure you will see me in videos from time to time, but the responsibilities the Lord has called me to do not leave me with much time. So the videos will be narrated using artificial voices. I agonized over this decision and prayed about it extensively. This is how I can accomplish the task that the Lord has set on my heart. Make our magazine accessible. And don't get me wrong, these videos do still take a great deal of time and effort, but in saving the time taken by narrating I am able to achieve this goal.
If you would like to support this endeavor, become a video sponsor. It is $25 and will give you a short ad in the video as well as a mention anywhere we share about the video or its content. These videos will also come out a whole week ahead of time on our Patreon. So if you want early access to Clean Fiction Audio uploads you can sign up for as little as $1/month at patreon.com/cleanfiction.
Oh and by the way, my friend's poem, the one who started this journey, can be found in the Winter Edition 2023 AND it is great by the way.
