You Might Need a Tissue If…

More than one reader has told me that my books should come with a package of Kleenix.

I take that statement as a huge compliment. Here’s why:

Heart-Stirring Stories

It’s my hope that every story I write is so realistic and true-to-life that hearts are touched.

Don’t get me wrong. Life is tough, and I know that when folks read fiction, they want to escape. Hopefully be reading about the troubles of my fictional characters, readers will find hope. Because the second part of my author tagline is…

Life-Changing Grace

If life was nothing but trouble, would there be any reason to live? But thankfully, it’s interspersed also with glimpses of grace and hope.

So I also hope that readers can see that in my stories as well.

After all, life is about learning to stand in the face of obstacles, reaching out to God for hope, and overcoming life’s difficulties with His help and strength. Makes me want to shout ‘Hallelujah!’

CROSSROADS

The story of CROSSROADS is no different than any of my other books. It is full of those ‘need a hanky’ moments, but it is also a tribute to how God moves and works in our lives.

Yesterday I spend all day working on the book trailer to the story. Why so long? I had to find photos, crop and resize the photos for the video, pare down my selection, write the book trailer script, add the music, then upload it to YouTube.

Even though book trailers take lots of time and effort, I love creating them. Hopefully you’ll enjoy watching the CROSSROADS book trailer as much as I enjoyed creating it for you.

Oh, and you might need a tissue…
