My author copy of The Restorer's Son arrived today!!!!!As I hugged it (and smelled the wonderful ink) I was washed with memories of the days alone with God while writing the book, and the way I saw His grace unfold to the characters in the story, and how He taught me more about His love through those hours of writing.
It is such a tremendous, tingly, amazing blessing.
Holding these pages is a beautiful, tangible proof of how God can do marvelous things through even weak, flawed, and broken vessels like me. And also how He can kindle a dream and then see it through.
I pray the book will entertain and captivate, but also encourage the hearts of those who have wrestled with God.
Blessings and gratitude!

My daughter-in-law is loving The Restorer. I'm looking forward to reading it and now book two in the series will be out just in time for our annual fall family vacation. I'll read the first one, while she's reading the second one.
You've timed this very well. LOL

I simply love this book. The Restorer 'jazzed' me but Sharon, you upped the ante with this. Thank you for giving me goosebumps...not an easy thing to do, trust me.
Wow! Thanks for sharing my excitement, everyone!!! It means a lot to me!
Now I'm packing to head to the ACFW conference in Dallas.
Todd, book three is due out in January. :-)
Cindy - you know we scheduled the release date to coincide with your family vacation, right? heh heh.
Grace, don't pay attention to availability dates. Several online stores have wrong release date info. Hopefully it will arrive much sooner than that. ;-)
see some of you soon in Dallas!
Hugs, Sharon
*sniff* I wish I could go to Dallas...I miss you Sharon. Have fun!!
Congrats, Sharon! It looks gorgeous! Have fun in Dallas.
Pais, Remmie's going to that. *sigh*
Next year, I'll be right there with y'all. It'll be a bit of a drive, but not too bad.
The Restorer's Son looks beautiful, milady!
