Inspired by Life ... and Fiction

Novelists bound by the pen, sisterhood, & more

I’m writing something new . . . just don’t know what yet.

Before I jump in, have you watched any episodes of THE PROMISED LAND? They can be found on YouTube, and here’s a link to the first episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSI04-1oLwg

It’s Exodus-meets-The Office. It’s hilarious, but it never laughs at God . . . only at the all-too-humans involved in the story.

I am about to finish my last book in the matriarchs series, the story of Rachel and Leah. It won’t release until 2027, but I wanted to get it done while I still had tents and camels on my mind.

I’m ready to start something new. I am never comfortable being where everyone else is, and the genre of biblical fiction has grown quite crowded ever since the arrival of The Chosen. I’m happy the genre is taking off, as I love writing it, but honestly, I can’t think of anyone else right now I want to write about. I’ve written about Joseph and his brothers, Moses and his women, Delilah, Esther, Bathsheba, Herod and his sister, Cleopatra and her best friend, Salome Alexandra, and the Maccabees. I’ve covered the life of Christ, visited Paul’s churches, and I’ve just finished Sarah, Rebekah, Rachel, and Leah.

I’m ready for a change of pace. 🙂

What will I do next? I’m not sure, but I trust that the Lord will guide me when I sit down to pray it through. And I’m excited to think about something different. So pray for me, if you will–I can’t wait to get started! What would you like to read that you don’t see represented in the market?

  1. I absolutely love your books! The Canopy and Jerusalem’s Queen are some of my favorites! You could write a gender-swap retelling of A Christmas Carol set in Spain or Greece!

  2. I’ve seen snippet’s of THE PROMISED LAND on Instagram and thought it was hilarious! You could always write a Biblical rom-com 🙂
