More from Laine

I would love to introduce my friend, best-selling and award-winning author, whom you may not know yet with a little of the behind the scenes insight. She’s a mom, wife, and partners with God making impossible things become possible not only in her life but for thousands of others. She has a unique perspective because she had a seventeen-year-old marriage resurrect, a financial breakthrough after almost filing bankruptcy, a daughter healed from life-threatening illnesses, and three prodigal children delivered that are now free, whole, and healed. In 2006, she realized that what she was doing as a parent was not working. It seemed that her emotional pleas, rules, and religion weren’t helping her bring her prodigal back home. So she decided and made it my mission to partner with God at a whole new level and created a new way of parenting – one that would bring peace to her life, help millions of other parents, and bring their prodigals back home too. Her newest book, The Parent’s Battle Plan: Warfare Strategies to Win Back Your Prodigal is a must-read book to help parent’s with wayward teens and young adults.

Q & A with Laine Lawson Craft

Many authors say that they have always been a writer. When did you come to realize this?

I wrote early on in my early 20s laid it down for over twenty years and picked it back up in my early 50s.

Was there a special someone, such as a teacher, parent, or other relative, who encouraged you to pursue writing?

My husband read some of my first words and fell in love with them and actually had no idea they were my words! So he has been my number one cheerleader and fan.

Were there any obstacles you faced in your journey to publication?

I had a major advantage because I had published a national magazine circulated to every bookstore in America and Canada named WHOAwomen Magazine. Therefore, I had a lot of experience, and then God connected me to the right people.

What types of research did you pursue?

Not too much, but mainly on families’ health and children in distress and hurting.

What does a typical writing day look like? Are you structured or informal in
your writing schedule?

I am very structured. I work best with a plan and a schedule of goals to reach in my writing,

How long does is it take for you to write a book?

Less than a year.

Can you tell us what inspired your book?

Desiring to help other parents who were struggling with wayward children no matter how old they were, to find hope and ways to win their prodigals back home and heal their families

What do you want your readers to take away with them after finishing reading your book?

After reading the book, The Parent’s Battle Plan: Warfare Strategies to Win Back Your Prodigal will help parents who are struggling with wayward children, no matter how old they are, find the hope that with one touch from God, their prodigal can be delivered and everything can change instantly and that these tried-and-true tools and applications found in this book can initiate the shift in their family win their prodigals home and give the victory!

Readers always want to know what is next for an author. Do you have any works in progress you can share about?

Yes, I would love to publish a daily 365 Day devotional book I have been working on with daily scripture, devotional, and prayer for every day in the battle to keep parents strengthened and encouraged.

Please include any personal information you would like to share (family, hobbies, etc.)

Yes, I love walking, praising and worshiping, cooking, and being with my family! The beach is my favorite place to be!
