Author Interview and Book Giveaway: Yesterday's Promise

For some authors, writing just springs naturally from a God given ability with words and a love to share the writing craft. Vanessa Miller is just such an author, having written since a young age. Her stories mainly tackle stories about people who are lost and in need of redemption. Her books resonate with readers as she has received several awards and been on numerous bestseller lists.

I am pleased to share an interview I had with Vanessa recently and she has graciously agreed to give away a copy of her latest release, Yesterday’s Promise


Vanessa, thank you so much for taking the time to visit today, letting us get to know you better!

1: How long did you write before you were published?

I was a kid when I first began writing. But I didn’t know anything about submitting my work for publication at that time, so if we start with adulthood, I would have to say it took about ten – twelve years before I finally became a published author.

2: When you held that first book in your hands, what was your first thought?

WOW! I was totally awestruck. I remember sitting on the stairs, just holding the book in my hands. My dream had finally been realized, and I had no words to express how wonderful that felt.

3: What are you working on now?

I’m working on the final edits to the sequel to Yesterday’s Promise. That book is titled, A Love for Tomorrow and it releases in September 2010.

4: Where can readers find out more about your books?

Readers can visit my website: http://www.vanessamiller.com/  I also have a fan page on Facebook so they can type in Vanessa Miller to find me.

5: What message(s) do you want to be clear to your readers?

In Yesterday’s Promise I hope my readers begin to understand that if God brought you to it, He can bring you through it. I also want them to find faith and hope in the way Melinda holds onto the ministry (dream) that God put in her heart.

6: What are two things that people wouldn't normally know about you as a writer and or person?

The only thing that I can think that people might not know is that I have a two year old granddaughter and a one year old grandson. There, that’s two things. : )

Thank you for being with us today. Any final words for readers?

I would just like to thank everyone who took the time to read my information on this blog. I hope you also get a chance to read Yesterday’s Promise. Many blessings to you…
