Hi Jennifer! Thank you for taking the time to
answer these questions and giving my readers the chance to get to know you and
your latest book- Hometown Healing- a little bit better.
Let’s talk writing! Was this something that you always knew you wanted to do or something that came about later?

I’ve always enjoyed writing but always more as a
way to process my world. Then, as an adult, I began writing various content for
the church, from dramas for outreach events to parent newsletters. One day, as
I was brainstorming content for a children’s program, I realized how much I
enjoyed the process, and I was taken aback by how much. I began to explore
writing more. A few years later, I sensed a clear call from God, which led to
more determined steps.
In addition to writing, you are also the founder of Wholly Loved Ministries, can you share a little bit about that?

I would love to. Our ministry helps women
discover, embrace, and live out who they are in Christ. We strive to do this
through various means, including creating devotions, Bible study material, and
engaging with women at events and online.
Have you found that your experience with this ministry and interacting with a variety of women has helped inspire your writing in any way?
For sure, and my writing helps me serve the
women. Interacting with others and hearing their stories and struggles helps me
write more dynamic and authentic character. Writing helps me continually
consider how I can communicate effectively to the women we serve.
Can you tell us a little bit about Hometown
Healing?
I’d love to. How about if I share the back cover
text?

What do you hope readers will take away from the book?
What do you hope readers will take away from the book?
I hope readers will be encouraged to seek
restoration in their relationships and take steps to develop deep community
with others, or if they are living in community, that they actively find ways
to deepen this.
This sounds like a fantastic read, and I cannot
wait to read it myself...I love a good second chance romance story! I
have found that writers are so often some of the best readers too. If we were
to take a look at your TBR, what might we find there?
I’m currently working on some devotional
deadlines, so you’d see commentaries and biblical history books. I’m currently
trying to immerse myself in the life of Paul and the culture of ancient
Corinth.
Thank you again for taking the time to answer my
questions. Before we go, can you give us an idea on what we can look forward to
next? Any projects you are currently working on that you can share?
Thanks for asking! I’m doing a final read through of what I
hope to be my fourth Love Inspired novel (my third releases this coming June).
I hope to get it to my agent by mid-March, if not sooner.
(1) winner will receive a signed four print book bundle including Restoring Her Faith (Love Inspired), Hometown Healing (Love Inspired), Breaking Free (New Hope), and Restoring Love (New Hope)!
