The first novel I wrote, Biblical fiction, has just been made available in Kindle format on Amazon.com. Written more than ten years ago, it has been released in Kindle format to be included in an upcoming author promotion for a website.
The inspiration for the novel came during Mass on Easter Sunday. There were many times I wanted to abandon the novel but I did not. Rebecca was controversial when published. The main controversy was content. A secondary controversy was the cover.
The encouragement I can offer is never to be afraid to write what you feel… you never know what can happen.
Rebecca was one of five finalists for Best Inspirational in 2003. As the author, I was selected for the First Annual Celebration of Inspirational Authors. The event was sponsored by St. Mary Bookstore and held in conjunction with the 2003 Southern Festival of Books. In the year 2005, the novel was selected for the Forbes Magazine Book Club.
I am not soliciting sales. The novel had its time, its place. This thread is for Christian Religious and Spiritual Writing and posters may be interested in reading the Kindle description and sample chapters provided. You may also find the controversy over the cover amusing.
Please forgive the Kindle formatting. It is really messed up and it will be corrected in a few weeks.
