Teeth-chattering Happy!!!

| "Shiloh" by award-winning artist Donny Finley, created for my storybook-in-the-making: Secrets of Shiloh |
I am very happy (and grateful to God) to announce that WestBow Press, a division
of Thomas Nelson Publishers, is publishing my second storybook: Secrets
of Shiloh. When I got off the phone with Tadd, a Westbow representative, I was so excited that my teeth were chattering!
“Then
you will know that I am the Lord; those who hope in Me will not be
disappointed!” (Isa. 49:23b)
After
the loss of her beloved friend, Col. James Beauregard Hamilton, life appears
bleak for teenager Rachel Grant. Watching her mother struggle to make ends meet
between stacks of bills and a meager income causes the teen’s dreams for
college to shift toward an aimless destination called “nowhere”.
With tears streaming down her cheeks,
Rachel reads for the hundredth time the mysterious letter left by the old World
War II veteran.
When she finally musters the courage
to return to Shiloh, the pre-Civil War plantation home of Col. James, a
childhood playmate partners with her to help decipher the hidden meaning of the
encrypted letter. Together, Rachel and Martin journey through a labyrinth of
encoded clues to unlock the Secrets of
Shiloh.
(I invite you to not just read this storybook but to apply it to your life by
means of thought-provoking “Reflections” at the end of each chapter. These pages take
you to Scripture verses related to the chapter’s theme and offer valuable personal
application of Biblical truths.)
