Juliet Rossiter has the perfect life: a rewarding schedule serving the underprivileged, a husband who loves her as Christ loved the church, and a blessed future as a mother-at least that’s what she thinks.įor Better or Worse.
Christian Music agent Kellen Rossiter has everything he ever wanted: A-list clients from coast to coast, a loving wife who honors and respects him, and a faith life that’s never wavered-until now. I’d love to! Here’s a blurb that captures the essence of the story perfectly:įrom This Day Forward. Let’s talk about your new book, Devotion (Harbourlight Books, October 2012). The power of God at work is paramount to every story I write.
My faith directly influences the way I create my plots, characters, and resolve whatever issues are raised in my books. How does your faith play into your writing? After a three year “dry-spell” I’ve been writing ever since, praise God. Throughout the processional, I kept thinking about the fact that each and every one of these people had stories to tell-stories of joy, heartbreak, fear, and triumph. One day at church, the dam burst as I sat quietly in my pew and watched people come forward to receive communion. I didn’t feel worthy, though, or like I had good enough ideas. After a hiatus from writing so I could help provide for my family, I tried to break back in but kept holding back, because I had an incredible call on my heart to write Christian/inspirational fiction. These were contemporary, secular romances. Years ago, I sold my first three books to Kensington Publishing.
Has God ever provided an unexpected “detour” in your life that turned out to be positive? I remember writing short stories, long hand, in middle school and sharing them with friends who kept coming back for more. The most honest answer is really quite simple-I’ve always loved mixing words and emotions, and crafting stories.
