Now that The Prophet’s Secret has been released and available to the public, the next step is promotion to create interest by potential readers. The writing process was an enjoyable experience, using a great deal of personal experiences (admittedly not combat) and stories which have been shared with me. There were times that I discovered the true meaning of  writer’s block and just had to wait it out and write through it with a lot rewrites.

The absolute worst part was the re-reading and editing and I owe a huge debt of gratitude to my wife, Kitty, for reading the manuscript at least four times and editing along with me. I don’t know about her, but I don’t know if I could have read it one more time. Ugh!

I am very grateful for two very nice reviews posted on Amazon.com which I have shared on FaceBook. Thanks to Carrie Fry and Robyn Elam, you really boosted my confidence. Still, waiting for my first book signing on October 7, I have that nagging worry that there will be few readers that will be exposed to the wonderful prophecies of the Old Testament concerning the Jewish people and the nation of Israel.

In closing, let me say, some of the manuscript seemed to be written by some one other than me. I first noticed this phenomenon when I prepared lessons and sermons to present in the San Angelo County Jail. I have since discovered that this is not so unusual because when your desire is to glorify God, the Holy Spirit will inspire you beyond your normal capacities. Thank you Lord.

I look forward to hearing from those who read The Prophet’s Secret for their reactions and opinions. I hope it creates an interest in Bible prophecies and God’s promises.
