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!

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 546: A Chat with Chuck Richardson
byChautona Havig

What if Earth had a twin planet, but the people God created there never sinned? Listen in as Chuck Richardson and I chat about his book and what it all could mean if it happened.

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

I’m still reeling from the idea that a sinless sacrifice is what was needed, so a sinless human (as Jesus was) could actually pay the price for sinful man in this fictional world he’s created. Assuming he even goes that route someday. Still fascinating.

Paradise Unfallen by Chuck Richardson

What if Adam and Eve had resisted the serpent? Welcome to Erimea-Earth’s twin world, untouched by original sin.

Solis and Livi, the first parents of Erimea, begin their lives in perfect fellowship with God. But their obedience does not end the war. Satan and his legions simply turn their fury upon the new world.

As the population of Erimea rises, tensions crack the harmony of paradise. A powerful life-giving resource becomes scarce. Rumors spread. God is silent. And a restless humanity flirts with fear, force, and false gods.

To save their descendants from repeating Earth’s tragedy, Solis and Livi must confront deception, division, and the relentless pressure of darkness. Their journey-from innocence to holiness-will determine the future of an unfallen world.

If you enjoy Christian fantasy, biblical what-ifs, spiritual warfare, and epic worldbuilding, you will love Paradise Unfallen.

Perfect for fans of: C.S. Lewis Ted Dekker

Step into the world that might have been-and the war that still rages.

Ever notice how you best know yourself--and know y Ever notice how you best know yourself--and know yourself the least?  We humans are weird that way. Sometimes I think the Lord allows us to be blind to parts of ourselves for a time so as not to drive us too crazy too quickly. Or something.
Characters most like me are hard because they're so very convicting to write AND... because I don't usually know it's me until that conviction its.  I tend to have an idealized picture of who I am until reality strips away those rosy glasses and leaves me with crystal-clear vision.  Blech.
Second to me... I'd say nasty people. They give me such an ick feeling. Sure, it's cathartic... but it's so hard because I want to redeem everyone, and that's just unrealistic and frankly, arrogant.  So... there you have it.

Clearly,  he wasn't talking about me, considering the whole patience being a virtue thing.
