A series of things made me realize that I wanted to write fiction, but the final straw was reading a book with an ending that disappointed me. So I decided to write my own. I sold the book the year I turned 30.<br /><br />Thanks to all of you who left comments. I hope I caught all of the questions.<br /><br />Thank you, Carole, for the great interview.<br /><br />Now off to finish getting ready for tomorrows flights.

Thus I'm short on time for answering so many comments. I'll do my best.<br /><br />Cheryl, I was a compulsive writer as a child. Always scribbling something--bad poetry, diaries, letters.<br /><br />Anonymous, this book is a stand alone (women's fiction). However, I loved the setting so much that I am now writing a series of contemporary romances set in Kings Meadow. Each book will also have an historical thread.<br /><br />Melanie, since I've written over 70 books, I have lots of characters to love. However, two of my heroines stand out to me because they make me smile when I think of them: Katie Jones in Catching Katie and Cleo Arlington in Fit To Be Tied.Robin Lee Hatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03205118960775727153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8489682774042769094.post-82706018925776398712014-03-07T19:47:00.941-05:002014-03-07T19:47:00.941-05:00Thank you to all who have left such meaningful com...Thank you to all who have left such meaningful comments for Robin!

I think my favorite line in your interview was this: "Nothing, absolutely nothing, enters my life that isn’t caused or allowed by God—filtered first through His loving hands—for the purpose of making me more like Jesus." I've had some foot of the cross hugging moments too and if we allow them to melt us down to becoming more like Him we have moved in the right direction. <br /><br />I've read several of Robin's books and currently have Beloved in the wings to finish. I finished Betrayed a couple of weeks ago. <br /><br />Carole has my e-mail address.<br /><br />God bless, KimAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8489682774042769094.post-17027729064906786982014-03-07T14:33:05.979-05:002014-03-07T14:33:05.979-05:00Robin, what started you writing and at what age? ...Robin, what started you writing and at what age?

Thanks to you both!!<br /><br />My testimony is similar to Robin's - I became a Christian when in my teens, but allowed bad choices to draw me away from God. The end of my marriage to an alcoholic, and realizing that my way of handling my life wasn't working - was the beginning of my journey back to God. As Robin said - there was nowhere else to go, and He was there - waiting to heal, love, and restore me!! <br /><br />I would love to read "A Promise Kept"!!<br /><br />bonnieroof60(at)yahoo(dot)com<br />I am a blog and Facebook follower. bontonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02852536941656729576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8489682774042769094.post-33992805352207602582014-03-06T00:29:53.611-05:002014-03-06T00:29:53.611-05:00Thank you for the great interview!
