Tomorrow is the Day! REASON TO BREATHE!

October 22, 2018 By Deborah Raney

I’ve been waiting for this week to come for a very long time! Tomorrow, the first book in my new Chandler Sisters Novel series releases from Gilead Publishing. It’s been more than a year and a half since I had a brand new book release, and this one is from a brand new publisher as well, so I’m pretty excited!

Because of my writing schedule, as often happens, this book is releasing at the very time I’m writing like crazy on deadline for the second book in the series. That manuscript is due on my editor’s desk by November 1, and I’ve been writing pretty much sunup to sundown to finish on time. It’s going well, and I’m thoroughly enjoying my return to lovely (fictional) Langhorne, Missouri and the characters who live and love there. I hope you’ll love them too!

Watch Deborah Raney’s Facebook Readers Group and other social media for some fun promotions and giveaways, including Lisa Bergren’s semi-annual scavenger hunt which includes my novel as one of 25 new books and other fabulous prizes. The hunt itself is always a lot of fun, with authors sharing all-new content for readers who want to learn more about some of their favorite authors.

I’ll be sharing about some of my inspiration for my Chandler Sisters Novel series—namely, my own sweet sisters! I hope you’ll check it out! And also these other wonderful novels releasing this fall from Gilead Publishing. Happy reading!

P.S. Wishing a VERY happy birthday today to my #1 son, Tarl Raney!

Deborah Raney

DEBORAH RANEY's first novel, A Vow to Cherish, inspired the World Wide Pictures film of the same title and launched Deb’s writing career. Forty books later, she's still creating stories that touch hearts and lives. Her novels have won RWA's RITA Award, the ACFW Carol Award, the National Readers Choice Award, and the HOLT Medallion. She is also a three-time Christy Award finalist. Deb is on faculty for several national writers’ conferences and served on the executive board of the 2,500-member American Christian Fiction Writers organization for 18 years before retiring in 2022. She is a recent transplant to Missouri, having moved with her husband, Ken Raney, from their native Kansas to be closer to kids and grandkids. They love road trips, e-biking, Friday garage sale dates, and breakfast on the screened porch overlooking their wooded backyard.
