Please pray!
Our publisher recommends sending out 300 to 500 such advance copies. Trouble is, neither Glenn nor I have the financial resources to fund a promotion of this size. So we’re asking for your prayers – specifically that God will multiply the 22 copies we have available to equal the impact of 300-500 books. Continue reading

About My Testimony
Sometimes people wish to know how this testimony relates to the book, And Then Came Life. The 700 Club interview happened through a series of “unusual” events. After looking back on them all, I see how God planted the creation of His story in my life, even back then.
To have met Ken Hume (the video interviewer) and to have engaged his audience years 20+ ago was a great opportunity for blessing. It was said later by The 700 Club that public response to the video was overwhelming and impacted many people’s lives. Many gave their lives to the Lord the day the video aired. Continue reading
How Does God Lead Christian Authors?
Many fans and well-wishers have asked how God directed Robert and me through the writing of And Then Came Life. Over the years, some have offered words of encouragement motivating the book’s completion. Others have made prophetic statements about the book’s birth and God’s intended purpose for it. And yes, there have been discouraging words spewed from the lips of naysayers. Being a vessel for His story is really an honor by which I am fearfully aware of. No way could any of this have happened without Him or through Him. Much is ahead for Robert and me in Christ. The oppositions will arise, I suspect, but so will the blessing of His story of redemptive love and restorative power through His Son, Jesus Christ, Lord and Savior! Continue reading

The Struggles of an Author
What struggles have we encountered during the process of writing this book? Patience is the key. Stories may bubble and fester within one’s heart for many years, but sharing them in their fullest takes committed tenacity while trying to stay true to their reality. God spoke the title, And Then Came Life, into my heart more than 20 years ago. I was certain the story would be told and there would be additional books that would follow, but I could never imagine how this literary project would occur or when. Continue reading

On Meeting David Goldberg
During the five years Glenn and I spent writing And Then Came Life, the telling of David Goldberg’s story became amazingly personal, moreso than any fiction I’ve written. Almost daily, as Glenn emailed additional snippets of David’s life, as he revealed more and more about the troubled youth growing to adulthood, I came to know our protagonist as a true friend. It was a rare privilege, indeed. Continue reading

Why Did I Write This Book
One question I’m often asked is “why did I want to write this story?” Authors write for a plethora of reasons. Money is an obvious choice, although there are more authors working “day jobs” than actually make a living with their writing. The pursuit of fame might be a motivation, or entertainment. On a grander scale, there is, perhaps, opportunity to impact the future of the world. This is a love affair about which I write. This is about my passion for He who healed me and, out of His love, He has created this book. This is my praise to Him. Continue reading

How to Write a Book
Salon owner Glenn Greenstein was charming, outgoing, and an expert hair stylist for both men and women. We became instant clients and set about getting acquainted. It’s always more fun to enjoy the person to whom you’re going to trust your coifing.
A couple of months later Glenn asked whether I’d write a book he’d had in mind for more than 20 years. He described the project and suggested I go home and pray about it. I did just that. Two weeks later I told him I’d be his co-author. Continue reading
