Using story to connect YOU to the Master Storyteller

What Happens When Tinseltown Tugs at Your Heart

by Chautona Havig · 3 Comments

I asked Lynnette to tell us a bit about her “Hollywood Stars.”

Check out what she said!

What Happens When Tinseltown Tugs at Your Heart

Lynnette has a wonderful story for us, so let’s get to know a little more about it and her, shall we?

How did you come up with the title Kittens and Snow Flurries for your book?

My titles always stem from something in the book. Let’s just say that a cute kitten named Star has a hand in leading my heroine to realize that God is real and that He loves her. Just like a different star long, long ago led some wise men to the King of Kings.

Who is your favorite supporting character in Kittens and Snow Flurries and why?

I always love revisiting characters who were the main characters in past books. That’s why I’ll have to go with Havyn and Chelsea as favorite secondary characters. It was nice to visit with them again. 🙂

If you created a musical for this novella and had to use just one known Christmas song or carol for its theme, what would that be and why?

I think it would have to be We Three Kings because of the chorus about the star of wonder, star of might, star of royal beauty bright…guide us to thy perfect light. That’s the whole theme of my book, right there.

The theme of the collection is wishes—What is your wish for this book in the lives of your readers?

[clickToTweet tweet=”My prayer for my books is always that they portray the message that God wants fellowship with us. ” quote=”My prayer for my books is always that they portray the message that God wants fellowship with us. “]If my readers walk away uplifted and wanting a closer relationship with God, then my fondest wish is fulfilled. I truly believe He is the answer for every problem we face!

Not a Sparrow Falls Now that this novella is done, what will you be working on?

Next on my list is the second book in my historical series, Wyldhaven. Book one is Not a Sparrow Falls. And this one will be titled On Eagles’ Wings. I’m already loving some of the secondary characters and can’t wait to delve more into their lives in future books. Doc and Dixie are such fun characters to spend time with. I’m enjoying their story immensely.

On Eagles' Wings-BonnerWell, I hope that got you excited for Lynnette’s novella!

Episode 471: A Chat with Heather Wood
byChautona Havig

I absolutely judge books by their covers, and as one of the top covers I’ve seen all year, Sowing Hope doesn’t disappoint. Listen in to learn how Heather Wood weaves parts of history many don’t know much about into amazing stories!

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

I love that Heather writes about skilled Irish artisans before the potato famine. 

She also shared about how she wrote to show how slavery was getting worse, how she deals with an actual martyr, and about the Underground Railroad.

Sowing Hope by Heather Wood

Encounter the True Story of Abolitionist Editor Elijah Lovejoy

Patrick Gallagher has done all he can—and it hasn’t been enough. Now in his mid-thirties, he battles discouragement over his inability to make a difference in eradicating slavery. Longing to regain the hope and passion that once fueled his calling, Patrick sets out from his home in Maryland to meet his hero, Elijah Lovejoy, an anti-slavery editor in Missouri.

Anna Markland actively serves her community and those traveling on the Underground Railroad. But her efforts feel small when she is constantly beset by headaches that leave her prostrate for days on end. When the enigmatic Mr. Gallagher enters her life, she discovers their hearts beat with the same dreams. Yet Anna knows that if she allowed him to pursue her, her weakness would hinder him from reaching his potential as an abolitionist leader.

In the free states along his path, Patrick discovers that the Black and abolitionist communities are anything but free. Violent mobs, hateful rhetoric, and spineless politicians create a tinderbox of danger. What will he sacrifice for the cause he’s devoted his life to—and will God finally use him to make the difference he longs to see in society?

Don’t miss the first interview with Heather HERE.

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!
