Ha! It's a tough line to walk in the Christian market between realistic and inspirational. As Christian readers, we want to pick up a book free of the violence, profanity, and sexual overtones that bombard us in this world; however, we don't want to be preached at or catch a hint of condescension. I pray that my stories are--as you said, Kate--REAL...without the sensationalism that sometimes plagues other entertainment. If y'all think of me during your prayer times, I'd so appreciate your prayers in this area!Mesu Andrewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07530997311965801988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-515660504291275491.post-57182081086067083542014-10-09T00:48:21.396+11:002014-10-09T00:48:21.396+11:00Hi, Paula!

Let me first say thank you for reading my books and a HUGE thank you that you appreciate the lesser known women of Scripture. It's so much fun for me to research and imagine the lives of those who affected the heroes of our faith but got little of the spotlight. So thankful for a kindred spirit reader out there! ;-)Mesu Andrewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07530997311965801988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-515660504291275491.post-18425022298441722872014-10-09T00:44:16.029+11:002014-10-09T00:44:16.029+11:00Isn't God so good, Rita?

That Scripture was annoying when folks quoted it to me in the midst of my trials, but it's sooooo true! Ha! You definitely have a "God's view" of life, gal.

I love the way you highlight heroines who may not get much of a mention in scripture, bringing them to life. It's interesting to read your distinction between Biblical fiction written from a Christian and secular world view. The cover of the new book looks very appealing, and I hope it does very well. Thanks for sharing with us Australasian readers and writers.Paula Vincehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02079952414990463270noreply@blogger.com
