Using story to connect YOU to the Master Storyteller

Excited to Share This Great New Service

by Chautona Havig · 1 Comment

It's not every day that a great new service for lovers of clean and uplifting entertainment comes along--especially one with a giveaway at the announcement! via @chautonahavig

I don’t always recall how I met certain authors or publicity folks, but I remember when I met her. An author I didn’t really know well reached out and invited me to be in a collection with her and a few others. We had a great run for a few months and by then I’d made a few new friends. Among those friends, one woman stood out as someone who I really respected and admired.

Since then, I’ve been in a few more collections with her (like THIS ONE where I wrote about the diabetic alert dog), but better than that, I’ve gotten to know her and even her mother.  They’re lovely people with a heart for people.

So, when I got an email at the first of the year saying they’d launched a great new service, I wanted to support it  And then when I heard they were doing a giveaway to kick off their new company, I knew I wanted to tell you guys about it. But even better, she decided to come over to my blog and share what they’re doing for me!  So… without me yammering on anymore–I mean, “further ado…” (said in my best snooty voice), may I tell you that I’m…

So Excited to Share This Great New Service 

If you are following this blog, chances are that you are a lover of good, clean & Christian books, audiobooks, and movies. That’s why today I’m so happy to tell you about our new company, 1531 Entertainment!

1531 Entertainment

We just launched in January 2020. Our company curates books, audiobooks, and movies. We make sure they are clean or Christian so that you don’t have to worry about whether you can trust the content. Many of our listings are for books, audiobooks, or movies that are on sale. Though we do allow authors to share listings for full-priced items, too (eBooks are generally less than $5.) Artists deserve to make a living!

We share these listings on our website and social media accounts, and also provide for consumers to sign up to be notified of content in their favorite genres via our newsletter. Once you sign up, you will get an email a few times a week with clean or Christian listings selected just for you and your tastes!

Where to find us:

1531Entertainment.com– (This is to sign up for our newsletter where you choose your favorite genres. Join today to be entered to win one of the Amazon.com Gift Cards we are giving away this month!)

Facebook – This is our Facebook group. Join to interact and chat with other lovers of clean and Christian entertainment!

Twitter – Follow us on Twitter.

Pinterest – Follow us on Pinterest.

We hope you’ll join us! We’re excited to share your next favorite book or movie with you! Do you have any questions? Feel free to ask them and a member of the 1531 Entertainment team will stop by to answer!

Okay, taking back my blog post for just one moment.

I figured you’d want to know what 1531 stood for and all that jazz, so I grabbed this from their website (edited to keep the SEO monsters happy)

Here at 1531 Entertainment, we believe in the power of positive amusements. Our goal is to share uplifting books, audiobooks, movies, and TV shows. We hope to make it easier for you to find clean and encouraging entertainment.

Our name comes from Acts 15:31, which reads, “The people read it and were glad for its encouraging message.” This was in reference to a letter being read to a church, but we liked it for our name because our focus is on clean and encouraging content.”

Guys, seriously.  Ask questions.  They mean it when they want to engage and help you learn more about what they’re doing.   And definitely sign up for their service if you’re interested in learning bout new (and older but maybe you missed it!) books and movies that you don’t have to keep one eye cocked for questionable content!

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 482: A Chat with Lara d’Entremont
byChautona Havig

When Lara d’Entremont began describing her YA portal fantasy, The Painted Fairytale, I knew this would be right up my alley. Listen in and see how art becomes the portal to other worlds!

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

Portal fantasy is my favorite, so I was crazy excited to learn about this one–especially the art tie-in. I can’t wait to dive in myself.

We chatted about her characters, the world, and the faith that connects them.

The Painted Fairytale by Lara d’Entremont

Seventeen-year-old Wren Devine refuses to share her art with anyone-other than her parents and her sister (who died three years prior). But when her mother submits her artwork to a mentorship program, and she gets accepted, Wren is forced to display her artwork for the eccentric Professor Hayes. Despite her fears, Wren hopes this mentorship will finally make her as worthy as her sister.

But this mentorship is about more than painting.

Wren soon learns that she has a magical ability to turn her paintings into portals to travel not only to other places but also to another world entirely. An eerie children’s book in the professor’s classroom reveals a wicked pirate with a vengeance who has her eye on Stefan Branson, a former student of Professor Hayes.

As all four of these lives intersect, it becomes apparent that everyone has a secret–some more deadly than others. The longer these secrets brew, the more deadly and heavy they become, and possibly lead to never seeing her former, earthly realm again. Wren must not only learn to release the shadow of her beloved sister but step boldly into her own world.

Learn more about Lara on her WEBSITE and follow her on GoodReads.or on Subtack.

Sometimes, I fall in love with a character in my b Sometimes, I fall in love with a character in my books. Someone like Lewis in The Lights of New Cheltenham or Rory in Not a Word. But... in Twice Sold Tales, I fell in love with a cast of characters.  Harper the store owner, Noah the single-dad just learning how to be one, Bennie, the adorable ballet-loving little boy... and Mrs. Klair. Oh, how I loved Mrs. Klair.
I also love the town of Red Wing, Minnesota.  I infused as much of it as I could into the book--places to eat and explore, people I love dearly (family!), and the feel of a small town inside a modest city along Lake Pepin (of Laura Ingalls fame). I also learned that there is actually a lake monster there!  Pepi!  You wont want to miss him!

What makes an office manager go "rogue" and get al What makes an office manager go "rogue" and get all "agent-ified?" Danger to their best agent's girlfriend, that's what. She doens't know what she's doing (the girlfriend knows more!), and she's terrified they're one blink away from certain death, but if sheer force of will can keep Erika alive, well... they've got a fighting chance.
Book 5 of the Agency file is available FREE, chapter by chapter on YouTube AND... after 2/28/25 also available in one full-length video.  Listen in individual chapters to keep easy track of where you are or in one long chunk so you don't have to keep moving to the next. Whichever works best for you!
PLEASE consider subscribing to Christa's YouTube channel. We'd both appreciate it.  https://bit.ly/ChristaDelsorbo
