Love reading your story. I have always loved both fiction and the Bible although I did go through prodigal years. I remember reading a wrinkle in time around 12 and in my mind I saw a key turning. I find fiction reading and writing freeing. I love Tessa Afshar's historical biblical fiction. And I look forward to reading your book.
I found ‘A Long Way From Verona’ by Jane Gardam helped me through rough early years in secondary school. I read ‘The Choice’ by Jenny Cooke as a youngish Christian many, many times, and still love it. And of course, ‘Jane Eyre’ for learning to stand courageously as a woman in my own right.
Sometimes I wonder where I would be without literature, novels, stories. I've found so much truth, beauty, healing, hope, encouragement - and so much more - nestled in the pages of books, wrapped up in stories. Reading is like a treasure hunt for me.

I have yet to read A Wrinkle in Time, but so many people say how instrumental it has been in their journey!
I recently read the Chronicles of Narnia series and the Hobbit. Realizing i knew these works from films and found them so enjoyable.
Are there any other novels you'd recommend apart from those mentioned?
Oh my, so many! What kind of stories do you like to read? What genres do you enjoy?

Thank you for these thoughtful words.
When does the Painted Fairytale release?
