It's published, and it's currently awaiting the give away approval. It's a story about a man with a charge passed down through his generations. I'm tring to list a preview, I'll let you know when that happens.
I wrote my novels primarily as evangelistic tools (means to reach unbelievers) but I realize that they are also good reads from believers as well, though hopefully, believers will catch the vision of giving them to their unsaved friends and relatives. My first novel is a historical fiction novel of the time of Jesus. It is:Of Such Is The Kingdom, 3rd edition in 3 Parts
I have revised and expanded it, adding part III, which deals with the early church and may be of more interest to Christians than to non-Christians. The 2nd edition (all 3 parts) is now available in print and as an e-book. It is available in many e-reading formats including KINDLE. & also on Smashwords.com.
My 2nd novel is a gospel sci-fi (specifically, time travel) novel, Impossible Journey: A Tale of Times and Truth
It's about some future scientists (as yet unsaved) who try to put an end to evil in the world by going back to Eden to prevent the fall. They can only go so far at a time and thus they go through 6 different historical periods well chosen by me for the spiritual lessons they could convey, and at one point get pulled to their future, which is actually the start of the Biblical tribulation period.This book is also available both in print and as an e-book in many venues including Kindle, Google Play, and Smashwords
My 3rd. novel is an American historical fiction novel, covering the years 1860 to 1909 and detailing the lives & tragedies of H.W.Longfellow, his son, & Mark Twain and how they MIGHT have eventually found fulfillment. It's The Christmas Victory
Full Title: The Christmas Victory, A Gem of A Sermon All Wrapped Up in A Historical NovelAside from both being authors, what do the lives of Henry Wadsworth. Longfellow and Mark Twain have in common? The answer is that both of their lives contained terrible tragedies from which they eventually found real hope and spiritual meaning—at least in this novel.
This novel is about my little sermon and one, even littler poem (not mine), and how, fictionally, they may have influenced and given hope to, not only the author of the poem, who happened to be non-other than Henry W. Longfellow, but also his son, Charles and another famous author, whose name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but who is better known as Mark Twain.
I'm writing a book right now...it's a work in progress, and barely started...but if anyone would be interested in seeing it, just email me at [email protected]. It's a more contemporary fantasy.
My new book is Daughters of the King: The Single Women of the Bible. It is available right now at Smashwords and Amazon. Find out more at my web site:http://emilysherwood.webnode.com
At present, I am finishing up the final edit of my novel about a ex-CIA back op and her ex-CIA parents. Her mother left Washington because of the lies when the Lord got a hold of her. She's now the senior pastor of a spirit-filled church and co-owner of a private back ops company with her husband in New Mexico. They are caught in the middle of a true military invasion of the Southwest as the Azecatl peoples reestablish Aztlan—the Aztec nation of the the Mexican-American border in a bold thrust on Cinco de Mayo. It's a fun ride as the only hope quickly becomes obvious. The Lord needs to move in power.
I forgot to mention that I am serializing the book on "The Christian Authors of Radiqx Press". Check it out! A new chapter comes out every Tuesday morning...
Wow- as both a Christian and an ESL teacher, that sounds really intriguing. I will have to check it out!
My next book is Accidentally Amish, coming out in October. You can see the trailer here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Op_GTI...Then The Dilemma of Charlotte Farrow comes out in January. I am spiffing up the sequels to those books, getting ready to turn in manuscripts to the publishers. A busy summer!
A Memoir of Love
My book is indie because it is a little genre-bending. It has far too much "religion" for most secular publishers and too many "mature themes" for the mainstream Christian ones.
Here's the text from the back cover:
Marna…
The year is 2143 C.E.
The place is an insignificant settler cell in the Damascus region. Consumed with unrest and divided by indecision, it is the perfect battlefield for the spiritual forces of a post-apocalyptic world.
The original inhabitants of this land were descendants of the ancient Hadadian kings of Damascus, but after the second Great War ended, the refugees from the destroyed population centers nearby decided to call this area their new home. The Hadadians fell easily to their following conquest. They were already weak from religious skirmishes within themselves, and the covetous refugees were far more advanced technologically.
That was all sixty years ago. This year, 2143, our year, is the period everything is going to change for the forgotten kingdom. We, the multicultural grandchildren of that history, are ripe for a social Revolution. Our Settler’s Senate Council have proved themselves incompetent as leaders time and time again, and now war is looming with our European neighbor, Charn. Our last hope is to elect a Hadadian king to take the reins of our riotous people and rule like a man again.
A Memoir of Love
Jessiqua Wittman
I understand. My book should be out soon. I've been serializing the chapters. Chapter 10 of "Daniel's Mighty Men" will be released on Tuesday morning. The first nine chapters can be found on my blog in the Daniels' Mighty Men Serialized Category. The book is about a CIA assassin who came to the Lord and became a pastor along side her husband, who was a covert ops gunsmith for the CIA. The book is focused on their daughter and how she handles helping her parents when Mexico invades and overruns New Mexico and their private black ops company.It's a fun ride and shows a reality of Christian living that is almost never seen in Christian fiction today.
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/14...How do you know, at fifteen, what love and affection really mean? Ruth learned all too soon that love is commitment, and affection has a price. But who will ultimately make the commitment, and who will pay the price?
At fifteen, Ruth thought she had her life planned out. That is until she met Luke, a charming new cadet from the local military school. After entering into a seemingly harmless teenage romance, Luke's possessive attitude and subtle remarks begin to undermine Ruth's confidence, sending her into an emotional tailspin.
A beautiful young girl is suddenly lost in a grown-up world, trying desperately to hang on to a love she thought would last forever. Shattered dreams and hopeless tears become the bricks that build walls around Ruth; yet just below her broken heart, a beautiful vessel is being formed.
Join Ruth on her wedding day, five years later, as her childhood friend helps her journey back to face the demons of her past.

Hi everyone! I've just published a Christian-Fiction-Fantasy book:
The story follows a medieval blacksmith on his quest to discover the legendary "Heart" of his kingdom, and is suitable for all ages.
my GLASTONBURY, Novel of the Holy Grail, received a great new review: Donna's love of history comes to life in this over 800 page book on the legacy of the Christian faith. Beginning with Joseph of Arimathea from Biblical times and travelling 1500 years to the dissolution of the Glastonbury Abbey in 1539.There have been many books written on the Glastonbury Abbey and the time of the early Christian church. This novel by Donna Fletcher Crow is indepth, full of visually stimulating words depicting the history of the time, and draws you into the story.
It is a LONG read. Not one of those kind of novels you take to the beach and expect to be finished before you leave. This is the type of book you snuggle in by a warm fire, and transport to the past!
This book is an epic tale, and truly a wonderful work of art!

Leo is a shy, studious, quiet ten-year-old boy who lives with his brother and mom on Lakeside Drive. His puzzling dreams are the first indication that something unusual is about to take place in his quiet and friendly neighborhood.When he sees the mysterious symbol from his dreams hung on the inside of the front door of his home, he realizes that things out of his dreams have begun to appear while he is wide awake. The dark-clad strangers who captured his brother, Blaine, and took him to the smoke- and stench-filled building of his dreams are now real and chasing him and his friends through the fields and streets of his neighborhood.
An explosion rocks the street where they live and brings a shocking death to two kids when Leo and his friends are forced into an empty home and threatened at knifepoint by the leader of a gang of teens.
Leo and his best friend, Amanda, search the library for ancient texts for reasons why he has been singled out by the Nephi. The Nephi at first appears to be just a tall teenager, but in dreams, he is revealed to be something far more sinister, who is trying to draw others into the enticing darkness that has already captured the gang of teens.
A magnificent winged creature from his dreams tells Leo he has been chosen to see these mysteries. The Nephi must be stopped, but he doesn’t realize he is the one picked to defeat him. What he also has yet to discover is that the Lion-horses and giants of his dreams are real and only the beginning lessons in his spiritual journey and the training that has been started for him.

"Unputdownable... the epitome of a suspense thriller." That's what bloggers are saying about Five Days of Fear
by David Kovach. Now available for sale in paperback and e-book at all major retailers!
During a family picnic, Jessica Britton’s well-ordered world is slammed against a brutal reality and her faith is tested when her mom is kidnapped, her dad is shot, and authorities can find no clues to begin their investigation. Jessica’s own anxiety and fear for her mother’s life compel her to help FBI Agent Dan Hamilton look for motives and clues that would lead to rescuing her mom. By chance, clues begin to emerge, and the once floundering investigation speeds to a hectic race against time and criminal minds in a desperate attempt to save Jessica’s mom and the lives of many in San Francisco’s business district.

just an idea...End – Times Poem
Abomination on the wing, of temple it’s a sign
Desolations it will bring, at the end of time
Little horn has lots to say, he’ll captivate with sound,
The wing, the ear, the temple near, electric dreams abound
So many ways to take you down, subtle at the start
Games he will play, lead you astray, entice your human heart,
If his tricks fail, the gloves come off, there’s terror in the night,
Worn out you dread, the time in bed, your wits have taken flight
The next thing lost is sanity, invader in the brain
Confused you break, you cannot take, these things you can’t explain
If you’re not lost at such a cost, if you accept and know
Then real danger you will face, to choose which way to go
Dreams dig up the memories, to learn, to churn, to cry
Childhood fears, old guilt and shame, on grace you can rely
Are strangers at your open door, or lurking in the yard?
Or in your face, so scared you wake, your heart is beating hard
If splendor you behold, beauty you can’t describe
Not real, not heaven, just Hollywood – a trick, a lure, a bribe
If you suspect a scheme or plot, don’t tie yourself up in a knot
Don’t try to solve, don’t take the bait, it was foretold, your job to wait
Ugly dreams are haunting, and to live it seems so daunting
Brain sensations, itching ears, let the churches spirit hear
Or shaken awake by the quake, apocalyptic, life at stake
Oh so crazy and cartoonish, taunting you to make you foolish
If temptation does succeed, do not believe the lie,
God knows we’re weak, redemption seek, accuser you deny
Threats, instructions, you the prey, take wealth and power and life away
Such vivid dreams that you recall, reruns of your crime, your fall
Twisted words, dancing sound, tech-savey devil all around
In the garden soldiers fight, the Lord instructs, the time not right
Great prostitute, great Babylon, great city so it seems
Community, society, bound by evil schemes
False prophet is there to stir the pot, events he’ll instigate
Predicting them he will amaze - he can’t predict his fate!
Don’t be deceived, not real power, control is yours to give
And you can claim, in Jesus name, to wake, to stand, to live
Daniels ram and goat may be nine-eleven look and see
What happens next you should beware, time is short, time to prepare
Or create a new topic in this folder.
