How cool – I have never visited a blog book tour. Very well done, David. Great questions. I especially liked Beryl’s answer to number four in which she states, “I have had to…move into a faith based on experience rather than dogma.” That really hit home with me.

I just ordered it from Amazon.ca. Your review has completely enthralled me and I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of my copy. Thanks David and Beryl.

I just received an interesting question on my website. What relationship does the book jacket photo have with the title. I recently ran a competition offering 10 free signed copies of my book if people sent me their impressions of the book jacket. Though I received 500 or more entries, no one had asked that question before. Perhaps the only way I can describe it is that both the image and the title capture the essence of the story and complement one another … a young woman, innocent yet sensual, whose decisions lead her to a new experience of the elusive and intangible God she’s pursued all her life.

Wow David. This is more than I’d hoped for — especially the section on the meaning the book had for you. You are the kind of reader that I dreamed of having when I wrote the book, one able to plumb beneath the surface story to encounter the deeper story. You say it so well “Beryl’s journey, to me, was one of continually coming face to face with something greater than herself by continually facing herself in circumstances few people . . . undertake.”

Yippee! I’m glad that you’re featuring Beryl. She’s a great human being as well apart from being a wonderful writer.

Smile.
