Why #SHINEBeyond?

Readers often ask me where I came up with the #SHINEBeyond tagline and what exactly it means. Of course, I’m all too happy to take the time to answer as this philosophy is something very dear to me. Essentially, #SHINEBeyond came about as it encompassed my heart for all my … Continue reading

Glenn Soucy Hi Ralene, thanks for the friendship. I see you like books that have no graphic sex, and cuss words, and fall into the Scifi-action-paranormal-YA group. That's exactly what I write, plus, my charaters are Christians. Could I get you to take a peek at my series, Blood Tithe? The first five chapters are free.

Thanks, Glenn

Donald Parker Hi Ralene,
What an honor to be one of your first ten friends here at Goodreads. I'd love to have you check out one of my books which deals with the supernatural. It's not exactly a thriller though. I'd be glad to email you a free ebook of it, if you're interested. God bless!!
Donald
