I just finished "How the Light Gets In". The story still comes to my mind often. I have often heard of God's Will defined in many ways. However, I have never heard it described quite like you did making the palm of His hand the focus. Was that a result of your creative mind or has it been handed down? From where did it come?
Jolina Petersheim
Thank you for your kind comment! A friend shared the palm image with me when I was trying to decide between going overseas or going to college. He had this big, tanned, work-hardened hand that he held out to me while I was taking a break from waitressing. The image gave me so much peace when I was seventeen years old.

I just dowloaded your book, The Alliance, today. It's very good! I'm looking forward to reading the rest! Have you ever read The Land Uncharted by Keely Brooke Keith? Y'all have eerily similar stories! Yours reminds me so much of hers! But, good writing is good writing!
