Here are eight things you should know about Carlene.
_____________________
KD: How long have you been writing?
Carlene: I've spun stories in my mind all my life, but it wasn't until four years ago I finally began the Chandler Series. It's a story very close to my heart. It's a little bit of the familiar, along with the world I've often dreamed about within my mind. I hope you come to love the characters as I have.
_____________________
KD: You write mostly Christian fiction. Is there another genre that you would like to try?
Carlene: I love writing poetry, and I would like to publish in this genre as well.
_____________________
KD: What advice would you give someone who is just starting out as a writer?
Carlene: They should never give up on their dream. No, matter how seemingly unattainable it may be to the person. They should never give up up those dreams.

KD: How many books do you have published?
Carlene: I have three published to date.
_____________________
KD: Do have any new projects in the works?
Carlene: I have three books in editing, and I'm currently working on the fifth book in the Chandler Series. Also, I just started a new series, The Messengers.
The Messengers, Book One, Finding YOU
God in all his ultimate wisdom foresaw the Evil and their plans for turning, Trinity University, a place of Christian teaching into a battle ground for their evil plans here on Earth. What better way than to turn the godly students into servants for the Devil—without them even realizing what was happening. Well—at least until it was too late anyway.
His plan was simple really—he would send in the only hope for his people—they would be called, The Messenger’s, each one would have the power to save the lost souls they were destined to meet. It would be their destiny to save them before they crossed over and could never be redeemed…
The first Messenger would be named…Danny

Blurb for Chandler Family Christmas:
Previously published, and revised for Christian Romance.
In the Christmas story, "The Chandler Family Christmas", from the Christian romance series the Chandler Family: Christmas is a very special time in the Chandler family. This year's holiday was even more so—with the weddings happening on this very special day. Even though Angel married Keith in Las Vegas, it wasn’t the family wedding she always planned. This was something her mother and the matriarch of the family wouldn’t let her daughter miss out on—a church wedding. So the wedding was going to be the biggest thing to happen to the small town of Ash Grove, in a very long time.
Shaylee was really glad her Aunt had invited her to come and help out with the wedding preparation. She was so tired of her family walking on egg shells around her, afraid to hurt her feelings by using their gifts. She had accepted a long time ago that she was just an unexceptional person, born into an exceptional one. For some reason God had chosen this particular Chandler to be the “normal” one. She often wondered if they brought home the wrong baby from the hospital. Because, honestly, she didn’t look like a single Chandler—it left Shaylee doubting if she even belonged.
Join the young woman as she realizes God had very different plans for her, plus enjoy the holiday with the Chandler family on their special day.
