I reached a major goal yesterday when Armchair Interviews award my short story, An Unexpected Dream, second place in their Thanksgiving Short Story Contest. I'm excited because, not only is their website is an award winner, but I set a goal to be recognized by published authors as having talent. I've been so fortunate to have people encouraging me in my writing, my wife Pam, Cec Murphey, my dear friend, and Matt Jones, my critique partner.
Today, I still have two goals unfulfilled. I still need an agent, and I'm still not published. But, I'm pumped. I'm entering three manuscripts in the Genesis Contest next year, and I have hope for success. My motto is: Kept Writing And Never Give Up!
As an aspiring fiction novelist, I desire to both learn and share the craft with others. I am a writer who wants to generate exceptional, entertaining novels for adult readers and provide stories of redemption to encourage people that no matter how far they fall, God still loves them. I have a passion to entertain avid readers with unique fiction novels, full of twists and turns, as the characters overcome the missteps of their past and climb their way to redemption.
