Using story to connect YOU to the Master Storyteller

Who Knew an Eating Disorder Could Inspire a Great Book Full of Adventure?

by Chautona Havig · Leave a Comment

Autumn Lytle's debut novel tackles a difficult subject with the sensitivity of one who understands. You won't want to miss All That Fills You. via @chautonahavig

Debut author, Autumn Lytle bursts onto the book scene with an eye-opening, timely novel, All That Fills Us, that really addresses an issue that has become almost an epidemic during this difficult time–eating disorders.  This book comes at the issue by taking a woman through tough places to work out tough issues in her heart, and I can’t wait to read it!

Who Knew an Eating Disorder Could Inspire a Great Book Full of Adventure?

I don’t know about you, but the idea of trekking two thousand miles from Grand Rapids, Michigan to Mt. Ranier does not fill my soul with joy.  Not only that, roughing it along the way, and using it as a way to confront her personal struggles and demons?  AAAK!

But Autumn Lytle doesn’t just give you a researched book full of pat answers in this story. She offers a perspective from someone who has faced these same issues herself. Autumn (#notAmy) tells how so many of the thoughts and introspections are quite personal, learned from experience and shared with others.

The pandemic saw a surge of people struggling with eating disorders, especially among teens, so the timing of this book’s release seems handpicked by the Lord.

But that’s not all.

Autumn has another book that I’m dying to read–one about a young college girl who gets pregnant and what the Lord does in that girl’s life… and this story is also quite personal to Autumn–inspired by her parents’ lives (and therefore hers as well).  I’m DYING to read this book, guys.

So here’s the deal. We NEED to read All That Fills Us. It’s imperative that she get lots of readers and as many reviews as possible so a publisher will offer a contract for this other book.  I’m begging everyone to read this book (after all, it sounds amazing!!!) and leave a review… literally everywhere. If you loved the book, PLEASE end that review with, “I cannot wait for more from this author” or some equivalent.  Let’s show the publisher just how great we think Autumn and her books are!

Hey, they’ve even made it EASY.  Until release day, this book is on sale for just 9.59 with FREE shipping from Baker Book House. That’s nearly the price of a Kindle book these days.  Beg your library to get it. Listen on Hoopla or something. Let’s get the word out about this awesome book so we can get the next.

I’m seriously begging here, folks!

All That Fills Us Autumn LytleAll That Fills Us by Autumn Lytle

Mel Ellis knows that her eating disorder is ruining her life. But she can’t bring herself to go to rehab so someone else can fix her mess. Broken and empty in more ways than one, Mel makes one last-ditch effort to make hers a story worth telling. She will walk her own road to recovery along the lesser-known trails of the North American wilderness.

Though she is physically and mentally unprepared to face the difficulties that lay ahead, she sets off on foot from Grand Rapids, Michigan, and heads toward Mount Rainier National Park in Washington State. During the long journey, she meets strangers with their own stories, as well as ghosts from her past who can no longer be ignored. But though the land she travels threatens her success at every turn, it’s her own dark thoughts she’ll have to overcome in order to find peace in the life and the body she has been given.

With pitch-perfect timing and delightfully witty self-awareness, debut author Autumn Lytle masterfully leads readers on a journey down the hard path toward healing.

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 161: A Chat with Christian Women's Fiction Robin W. Pearson
byChautona Havig

Nothing says good, Southern women’s fiction like a feisty granny or a family secret, and Robin W. Pearson’s got you covered on both fronts. Stir in a pot of faith, and well… you’re bound to find a story you’ll never forget. And isn’t that a blessing? Award-winning, bestselling, and aspiring yodler on the other side of the Rockies, Robin writes stories of faith, family, and it sounds like some seriously delicious food.

What’s Better Than a Great Women’s Fiction Novel on a Summer’s Day?

New-to-me (or she was!) women’s fiction author, Robin W. Pearson writes God-centered, family-focused fiction. Robin is a delightful homeschooling mom of seven and if that wasn’t job enough, her debut novel won a Christy award! I mean, that takes some serious skills! Not to mention, it has a killer kick-off synopsis on Amazon. I was hooked from the first paragraph.

Robin says she wants people to see love in her books–how to love well even when we don’t know how. How to see each other as God does.  I think that sounds pretty amazing.

Her debut novel, A Long Time Coming, is more than just a great-sounding book, it really deals with family issues and I’ll just say I fell in love with the narrator of the audio.

The next book, Till I Want No More, rips your heart out with the synopsis, stomps on it, and says, “There. Now what’ll you do about that?  Well, I don’t know what I’ll do, other than read it of course!

And her latest novel?  Oh, my gravy. It released just last week and it’s amazing.  Well, the part I’ve read already is. Walking in Tall Weeds promises to keep your heart on tenterhooks as it takes you through a family’s pain and trauma.  And what more could you want?

Walking in Tall Weeds by Robin W. Pearson

From award-winning author Robin W. Pearson comes a new Southern family drama about one family who discovers their history is only skin-deep and that God’s love is the only family tie that binds.

Paulette and Fred Baldwin find themselves wading through a new season of life in Hickory Grove, North Carolina. Their only son, McKinley, now works hundreds of miles away, and the distance between the husband and wife feels even farther. When their son returns home, his visit dredges up even more conflict between Fred and Paulette.

McKinley makes it no secret that he doesn’t intend to follow in his father’s footsteps at George & Company Fine Furnishings or otherwise. Fred can’t quite bring himself to accept all his son’s choices, yet Paulette is determined McKinley will want for nothing, least of all a mother’s love and attention—which her own skin color cost her as a child. But all her striving leaves Fred on the outside looking in.

Paulette suspects McKinley and Fred are hiding something that could change the whole family. Soon, she’s facing a whirlwind she never saw coming, and the three of them must dig deep to confront the truth. Maybe then they’ll discover that their history is only skin-deep while their faith can take them right to the heart of things.

You can learn more about Robin W. Pearson on her WEBSITE.
