ACFW’s mission is to advance Christian Fiction by inspiring writers to join with God in the creative process, training them in the craft, and educating them in the publishing industry.
I have If I Run on my Kindle and its sequel on my bookshelf. Need to make time for them soon.
Loved both of those. So did my book club.
Am very blessed to be a finalist in the debut novel category. Thanks for posting this information.
You are welcome!
