I was just thinking of exactly this kind of (support) group! :-)
This is the group where all three male writers of Christian fiction can discuss what it's like to be part of an overwhelming minority.
There is a war going on out there. If you write Christian material, you really need to get a Christian reviewer or you might end up with what you got here. I would ask for my money back or to have someone else review it.
Good luck and don't feel -...
One of the first things a neophyte writer learns after celebrating the publication of his or her first book is that the bulk of the marketing responsibility falls on the author. The second object lesson absorbed is that marketing is much harder th...

I enjoyed browsing your site and have downloaded the Love Waits ebook. How do you find time to write so many intriguing books?

- Hi Don! Yes, it's been awhile! My summer is VERY busy. I'm looking forward to starting school again, so that things will settle down. :-) I'm working on my novel and hoping to give it to the editors in November. We'll see how I do with that...home schooling is very time consuming, especially with 5 still at home. My son, Brian, is leaving for boot camp on August 10th...yikes!

- I'll tell my boys you're a friend of Bryan's - can you hear it? "oh, cool!"

- Sorry, I think in spurts, so I send a lot of emails! Another suggestion, from a parent's point of view - historical fiction. Put the kids into an event that happened, like Johnny Tremain.

- About Me:
- Don is a 1968 graduate of Madison Central High School in Madison, South Dakota. He graduated from Dakota State University in Madison in 1972 with a degree in secondary education. After moving to Washington State in 1981, Don studied computer programming and turned his writing efforts to software. After twenty-five of IT work, Don's passion for writing flared up again, and the doctors couldn't do anything to cure it. The outcome is a five book series involving two generations of the Masterson family. If demand warrants, the series will expand as the future unfolds. Two other topics that Don feels compelled to attack with pen are the occult and the sexual revolution.

My review of A Passion Denied by Julie Lessman
Here is my review of Julie's book.
Julie Lessman is a master (or should I use the term mistress) of taking her readers on an emotional rollercoaster ride. Her characters, despite the fact she has so many of them involved in the story, come alive as real people and not caricatures gilded with religious veneer. The extended Connor family members are normally admirable but not flawless people. They try to cling to God, but the common struggles all humans must deal with in the areas of pride and pa… Continue
