Cover Reveal: Who I Am with You

May 9, 2018 By Robin Lee Hatcher

In 2017, after turning in the manuscript for You’re Gonna Love Me, I was reading my long-used (over 20 years), well-loved Bible which is full of highlights, dates, and notes in the margins.

Revision Time and Journaling Time

I left the Windows world behind in early 2006 and never looked back. So no surprise that the first item on my list of favorites is my 13” MacBook Pro. I also love my 27” iMac that’s in my office … [Read more...]

How Did You Come Up With the Idea for Your Book?

March 14, 2018 By Robin Lee Hatcher

The title of this blog post is a question authors get a lot during interviews. I can’t speak for others, but more often than not, it’s an impossible question for me to answer with absolute certainty—or even at all. On a very rare occasion, a book has sprung from some deeply personal experience (A Promise Kept, Beyond the Shadows, The Forgiving Hour), but mostly my stories are simply products of … [Read more...]
