Remember that name: Susan R. Lawrence. Soon you’ll find it on the cover of a book, The Atonement of Emily Adams, written by my very good friend and writing buddy.

This week Susan received a contract for her novel, which began a couple of years ago during our annual NaNoWriMo rush. Since I was present at this novel’s birth and provided some minor assistance, I feel a bit like a midwife. I confess that I view Emily Adams with slightly proprietary fondness. But apart from my obvious prejudice, The Atonement of Emily Adams is a captivating and well-written novel that will hold any reader’s interest.

Susan is a godly woman, incredible mother, great writer, and extraordinary storyteller. Here’s a link to her blog: http://www.susanrlawrence.com/

Her heartrending story “Jesus House” appears in Grandparenting Through Obstacles, available from Barnes and Noble or Amazon in print or Kindle versions.

Here’s a link to an interview with her in connection with that: http://grandparentingthruobstacles.wordpress.com/tag/susan-lawrence/

No news yet on release date for Emily Adams. In the meantime, purchase a copy of Grandparenting Through Obstacles and read Susan’s true story of unconditional love.
