We received information on the News Castle Reads event for 2025, which is scheduled for Tuesday,
April 15, 2025 at 7 pm. We are planning to attend again this year. The author and the book (Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt) appear to be very interesting.
Coming attractions include "The Wedding Planner" by Daniel Steel, "Dreamland: A Novel" by Nicholas
Sparks, "Hidden Pictures" by Jason Rekulak, "The Housemaid's Secret" by Freida McFadden, and several books by Ariel Lawson ("The Frozen River" and "Flight of Dreams")
As discussed at our last meeting, I reached out to Robyn Brown about book 3 of her trilogy. Here's the response I received:"Good morning, Paul,
So nice to hear from you, and so nice of all of you to think of me.
Actually... I am about half way through a draft of my manuscript
for the third book. I hope to have it completed by this upcoming spring or early summer, which in turn means I hope it might be published towards the end of 2025 or beginning of 2026. It is
very different from the first two books, but I am pleased with how God is working it all out in terms of weaving together a story of salvation for one of his "lost sheep."
I will save your email to me and would be happy to keep you posted
throughout the upcoming year as things progress if you'd like. In the meantime, if you wouldn't mind asking your book club gang to be in prayer for me while I'm writing, I would be so appreciative. I
am simply asking God to use me as His vessel to tell His story, and that I might be faithful to His calling.
Wishing all of you a blessed Advent season and very Merry Christmas!
Blessings ~ Robyn"
Thanks,
Paul
