Inspirational Books

Mystery and History

On Monday, August 9, I will guest post on Nicole Miller’s blog, To the Heart of History. She’s running a fun series on “The Story Behind the Story,” how certain novels have come to be. I’ll talk about timing and give you an idea of how long my novel, Waiting for Yesterday, has been in the works.

In the meantime, do you…

Want a shiver to run up your spine? Want a peek at the “good ol’ days?” Check out some of the newly released inspirational fiction from American Christian Fiction Writers authors.
