A Novel…Meme?
Meredith Efken wrote this and issued this tag. So here it goes!
A Novel Idea:
If you could write a novel about any subject, what would it be? (Just the subject, don’t give away your plot idea!)
Okay, there are so many subjects I would like to write about. Actually, a couple I’ve written about but have yet to be published, so in the name of self promotion I’ll share my current WIPs and WHY I’ve written them.
My Young Adult Biblical fiction based on the life of Christ.
I’m fascinated with Jewish history and it shows in this WIP where I intertwine faith, tradition, adventure, and the Gospel. Only problem is the publishing houses aren’t buying Biblical fiction from a nobody, but I would so like to get an exciting Gospel into the hands of today’s preteens and teens.My Urban Suspense which deals with issues of temptations and addictions.
I think Christian fiction is missing out on a certain audience. They’re the Christians that secretly watch Sex in the City, and Desperate Housewives. Come on now, confess. You’ve at least seen ONE episode of each. Anyway, my WIP is set in NYC and follows the struggles of a very real, very committed Christian who is struggling with his addictions. Isn’t that real life? I wish more real life would make it into Christian books, and I’ve seen a couple gracing the shelves and have yet to read.My Juvenile Missions Adventure Series
I love God’s people and God’s cultures. I want to write a series that covers the adventures of missionary kids living in a different culture. While in college, I spent 6 months in Nigeria and want to pass on some things I’ve learned in a fun adventurous way. In today’s world I think the more kids learn about people different than themselves, the more God’s love will be able to work through them.
Okay, I guess that’s more than was asked, but I’m not really know for being succinct.
So now I tag…
