I have to agree. Although I had wonderful feedback across the board (except from Catholic aunt) about the inspirational parts of my book (which are in
no shape or form the major parts) and how it handled, I do not want to be one of those writers who uses it as a crutch. Darvell, have you had a chance to read my book yet? What do you think about the way it was handled in my book?. Although Jennie Hansen thought it overdone she also thought I handled it extremely well. But I want to learn from this experience.
I deliberately did not shoot for the national market with Out of the Shadows, but let myself simply write without the major editing and watering down I do with my mainstream movie stuff. I have been pleasantly surprised to find my book appealing to one and all; men and women, teenagers, and people of all faiths. So I have a major curiosity whether I need to
concentrate on this in my next book or if it was handled well.
Okay, that's enough pontificating now.
