Joseph's Journey is a novel I have worked on for a long, long time. Because of the generosity of my Uncle John I was able to take a year's sabbatical and write.
This novel was given to me through a storyteller who spoke to me every day at the same time. I got up, got my coffee, sat in my chair (another blue chair) and translated what went through my head. Channeling. What I discovered was an incredibly beautiful story of a man, an everyday carpenter given a huge God-task. Going against all the dictates of his society and way out of his comfort zone he said yes. And what he finds is that through divine synronicity he is not alone, the "world" begins to work with him. He gets money and a wagon for Mary to ride in. All along the route the needs of Mary and Joseph are met by total strangers - grassroots, kind, and generous people. Just like who we, mostly, are today - although the news doesn't cover the millions of stories of daily kindnesses or the "miracles" of divine syncronicity.
I did lots of fascinating research into this story. I make huge mistakes in self-publishing and I still have little knowledge of marketing. I just know that the first publications weren't as perfect as I would have liked yet, I hit the button to Publish. Knowing the imperfections maybe kept me from much marketing. Whatever. Now, Christmas season 2016, I have been through the text with the help of a fellow blogger and friend, Jerri and I think it is done. Jerri blogs at: athursdayschild.wordpress.com. Thank you, Jerri.
Well, Joseph's Journey where it is in this moment! And I am proud of the new cover that Jerri designed, and the type style and the new size AND I love this story.
I hope you will read it and let me know what you think. \
