First Published Book

 

A very dear friend of mine has published her very first novel, “Timeless Moments.” It is a Christian fiction novel about time travel and the occupants of an old house in Lynchburg Virginia. Here is a short blurb about the book. “Jack Vines has the Victorian home of his dreams--or so it seems until he discovers an intriguing beauty lurking in the shadows. Stunned, he finds they share the house but live a century apart. The realization leads him to questions so disturbing it changes both their lives forever. She is a prisoner of the past, shrouded in a world of dark mysteries. He holds the keys that will protect their future. But first, he must solve the mystery concealed for nearly a hundred years”. I don’t want to say too much more than that except, I know you will enjoy this book.  This is one you won’t put down once you start. The story is an exceptionally fantastic mystery, but to me, the characters are what kept me engrossed. You will find your self becoming friends with many of them and sad to say, hating one in particular. Ugh, that guy still gives me the creeps. This book will appeal to Christians and non-Christians alike. It is not preachy, trust me on that. It has a nice balance for everyone who enjoys a good mystery without all of the foul language and scenarios that seem to dominate the books being published anymore.

      

The author’s name is Michelle Kidd, and I met her several years ago on another site I was writing on. We collaborated on a few poetry projects in the past (yes, she is a poet too) but when she presented me with the idea for this book, I was all in and have been involved with ”Timeless Moments” from its initial conception all the way through to the finish. I think my official title became cheerleader…ok, masculine motivator. :)

 

Recently Michelle was accepted into the KindleScout program and offered a publishing contract. The book was so well received that since being published, “Timeless Moments” has reached the top 100 best sellers in the Christian Fiction genre on Amazon. I am very proud of her and excited for the success this book has found. If you are a reader and are looking for something very unique and very cool, I would appreciate it if you would give Michelle’s book a look. You can find it at: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_rsis_1_4?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=timeless+moments+michelle+kidd&sprefix=time%2Caps%2C498

Thank you Soupers,

Chris

Very happy for you both on this fine accomplishment. Cheer on, is one of the things a poet naturally does methinks, especially with heartfelt words. I will check out her new book and advise my family and friends to do the same. She being a poet as well, deserves extra attention and admiration my friend...
