Using story to connect YOU to the Master Storyteller

To celebrate the release of All Is Bright, I've written a bonus short story: A Noel Christmas. Purchase or read and get your copy. FREE! via @chautonahavig

The Christmas Lights Collection Presents:

All Is Bright

The authors and I were all talking about what we could do to celebrate the release of All Is Bright.  Parties are fun, but with everyone on different time zones and me being pretty much out of commission, stranded here in Noel, it wasn’t going to happen.  I wanted to chronicle my experiences anyway, so I wrote a super-fast, six-thousand-word short story.  It takes place right here in the “Christmas City” of Noel, Missouri and features places, people, events, and traditions near and dear to my heart.  I even featured my mom’s house in the story.

And no, I did not need a fire extinguisher while cooking.  I’m appalled that you’d assume of all the real things in the story, that must be the one and the one that applies to me!

It’s easy to get your bonus.  Just email any of the authors in the set with a screenshot of the Amazon page showing your purchase or the final “thanks for reading” page if you read it on Kindle Unlimited.  You can even forward your Amazon receipt.  Once we see that you actually have the set (because this is a special thank you to those who are cheering us on!), we’ll zip you the link lickety splickety.

Here’s a hint.  I’ll be traveling and settling my mom in for the next few days, so if you want yours fast, you might want to email one of the other authors! I’ll do my best, but…

What’s the short story?

A Noel Christmas.  Hint.  If you want to sound like a local, you say “Nole…” Not No-ell. Just sayin’.

All Is Bright BONUS

Hey, if you haven’t gotten your copy of All Is Bright, yet, don’t worry. For just .99 you can own it.  Or, if you have Kindle Unlimited, the whole collection is there. “FREE.”

Not only that, but if you are just dying to have all four stories in paperback, you can do that, too!  They’d cost you an easy twenty-four to thirty dollars to buy them separately, but you can get all four in the paperback version for just $19.99!

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 520: A Chat with R. M. Ruiz
byChautona Havig

I love R. M. Ruiz’s passion for Jesus and good, uplifting and encouraging fiction for kids. Listen in as we learn how the Chosen Kids go to New York for their next mission.

note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.

We chatted about the books, of course, and how each one has its own focus–the kids and the missions and the locations. I can’t wait for this one.

The Chosen Kids Encounter at Mahattan: by R. M. Ruiz

The Chosen Kids return for a new mission!

In Book Four of The Chosen Kids Saga, the kids embark on a new operation filled with wonder, suspense, and heartwarming moments. One where they come to understand what it means to be Christ-like in an unfriendly world.

A shadow is creeping over the Big Apple.

For their latest mission, the Chosen Kids are sent into the heart of New York to rescue a missing loved one. When the family discovers the evil being that holds the key, they follow the creature through the concrete jungle in hopes that it leads them to its captive. Fascinated by the colorful sights and sounds of Manhattan, Caiden and the kids struggle to stay focused. Except the city isn’t all it seems, and trouble pops up wherever they go. With time running out, and no sign of their lost person, the family changes tactics and soon uncovers the fiend’s identity and its diabolical scheme. Following the Holy Spirit’s guidance, the Kids set a bold plan into action. But if they don’t hold fast to the truth of Jesus, they could fall prey to the monster’s wicked tricks, and the key to their mission will be lost.

Grab a copy for your young believer to continue the redemptive journey today.

Learn more about the series, the characters, and Rosemary at TheChosenKids.com and follow her on GoodReads and BookBub.

Two believers and one skeptic walk into a Christia Two believers and one skeptic walk into a Christian bookstore. Words ensue—including cross ones.
CrossWords has thrived for over fifty years, and Shiloh Scott runs it with equal parts Scripture, encouragement, and wholehearted hugs. So when she moves the store to a new location, she expects shelving chaos.
She does not expect to learn her nephew is done with Jesus.
It's time! CrossWords is coming March 9, 2026 UNLESS you want an early copy. Then zip on over to Christian Books & Gifts in Greeneville, TN on March 7, 2026 between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.! We're having a FUN launch party to celebrate the store that inspired the story! (I just love that "store" is in the word "story. Sort of.) Thanks to @christianbookandgiftgrv for allowing me to "write lies about you." ;)
The audiobook chapters are already releasing on @ChristaDelSorbo 's YouTube channel!

CrossWords--an absolutely fictional store inspired CrossWords--an absolutely fictional store inspired by a real and lovely treasure in Greeneville, Tennessee. Have a slice of pizza at The Gentry with Milton and Atticus, grab a cup of coffee from Catalyst or Iris Books and Coffee, but whatever you do, don't leave town without grabbing a salted caramel bachelor's button from Peggy Ann's Bakery. YUM.
And if only Christian Books & Gifts would create that Airbnb for me... because it's all about me, right? WRONG! It's about the lovely folks @christianbookandgiftgrv. Thanks for letting me fictionalize you! I'm having a blast!
