What scene in your book was your favorite to write?
It’s the scene when Jonah describes to Sophia his feelings of darkness when he was a combat soldier, but then realized he was really a soldier for God, fighting for good in this world. He’s trying to reach Sophia when she questions what’s happening around them and how God could let it all happen. She soon realizes she is one of God’s soldiers too. Jonah’s and Sophia’s bond becomes solidified here.
Do you have any quirky writing habits? (lucky mugs, cats on laps, etc.)
Definitely! I have to have my Airpods in – with good music in my ears, I need my German Shepherd Best friend next to me, and a warm cup of coffee to sip while I write.

To always be true to myself and to do my best to stay in God’s light.
If you could choose one thing for readers to remember after reading your book, what would it be?
