Tell us about your newest (re-)release.
I have recently re-released my Shadowcreek Chronicles (Word of Honor, Matter of Trust, Not Without Courage, Strength and Glory) as 25th Anniversary editions, and while the inside remains the same, the new covers are lovely! It’s my belief that history shouldn’t change, and so having the chance to re-release them with updated “faces” let’s the history and learning continue. I have a 3rd generation reader and was recently contacted by an author who told me she grew up on my books and in doing so was inspired to write for herself, and so she did.
What inspired you to write your story?
I was approached by a publisher and asked to write a historical novel for them. When I told a friend, she dared me to follow through. One book ended up turning into a four-book series.
What genre do you focus on.
I write historical fiction. My first series was set during the Civil War. There is so much more than what is taught in school and I wanted to share what I learned with others. I was born in California, and I made it a point to go find out what happened in my state during the Civil War. I’ve threaded that information throughout the series.
Why do you write?
I don’t remember a time when I wasn’t writing something. Little stories. Silly poems. I worked on both the newspaper and yearbook staffs in high schooled. I journaled. Now I write elaborate captions for photo books of my research trips. I write because I have been encouraged to do so, and I thank God for giving me words.
Who is your main character, and how did you choose that name?
Salina Rose Hastings (Barnes becomes her last name once she marries her beau)
I’m not entirely certain what inspired her name, it was just there, right from the beginning. My Salina is a 16-year-old Confederate spy who was inspired by real-life Confederate ladies who nursed in hospitals, smuggled medicine and mail, took pot shots at enemy soldiers, aided escaped prisoners, supplied food and shelter to Mosby’s Rangers, and forwarded messages containing critical information to military commanders: Belle Boyd, Amanda “Tee” Edmonds, Antonia Ford, Rose O’Neal Greenhow, Roberta Pollack, Laura Ratcliff, and Kate Sperry.
What is your work schedule like when you’re writing a book?
I hold a “real job” 40 hours a week, Monday-Friday. Writing happens whenever I can get it in during the rest of my waking hours. If I’ve been on a research trip, I take notebook, phone/camera, and laptop with me so as I can get ideas recorded while they are fresh.
What is the hardest part of being an author?
The hardest part is that it’s not just writing. In addition to researching, there’s marketing, signings, designing, collaborating, social media, sales, taxes, business… It’s a second job that never seems to have enough hours to get all I want to get accomplished done. I couldn’t do all the peripheral without my support team, including my agent, encouraging me.
What’s the best part of your author’s life?
When someone (in person or in a book review) says, “I learned so much from your story! I never knew that before.” This is true of historical and faith-based details.
What’s one thing your readers should know about you?
I’m very particular about the details I include in my stories and historical accuracy is very important to me. I have to put away my soapbox when it occasionally sneaks out. I try not to drive more than 12 hours in a day to reach or return home from a research trip. (That’s more than one thing… too many words—ha!)
How have you changed or grown as a writer?
From the time I initially wrote my Shadowcreek Chronicles (the first two were written in Microsoft Works and turned in on 3.5” floppy disks!) to the Track Changes feature we use now, technology is a night and day difference. Personally, I came through chemo treatments for ovarian cancer and so since then, my brain processes things differently than it used to.
What is your favorite pastime?
When I have the time, I love creating photo books on Shutterfly. I also love to read, watch football, and get in the Jeep and go drive to something historical (library, museum, battlefield…).
Do you have other books? We’d love to know.
I have the four Shadowcreek Chronicles (Word of Honor, Matter of Trust, Not Without Courage, Strength and Glory) and I was also published in a non-fiction collection called She Writes for Him: Stories of Living Hope. My submission was Chapter Four, called “Cancer is a Team Sport.”
What are you working on now?
After thinking I was done with writing and through being an author, a few years ago a different friend challenged me to start again—and pick a different time period. My new project starts after Pontiac’s Rebellion (1763) and will make its way through the years leading up to and through the American Revolution. (First book in the new series is set for a June 2025 release – stay tuned for title and cover reveal, newsletter subscribers will be notified first.) Going back in time another hundred years has been a whole new learning experience! The thing that proved a lightbulb moment for me was the fact we were all British until 1776.

A Heart Island Love Story
Ever since I was a child, Boldt Castle’s story has fascinated me. It’s a story of love and loss and begins with the talented businessman, George C. Boldt, a German immigrant who became proprietor of the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City and the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel in Philadelphia.
In the late 19th century, George and his beloved wife, Louise, spent summers in the Thousand Islands, a popular retreat for the elite of the Gilded Age. Mesmerized with the area’s beauty, Boldt purchased Hart Island, renaming it “Heart Island” as a symbol of his deep affection for Louise.
In 1900, Boldt embarked on an ambitious project to construct a six-story, 120-room castle inspired by the grand architecture of European châteaux. He meticulously planned every detail as an expression of his love and devotion, with hearts everywhere.
But tragedy struck in January 1904 when Louise died suddenly. Heartbroken, Boldt halted all construction and never returned to the island, and the castle was left unfinished.
For 73 years, Boldt Castle remained abandoned, exposed to the elements and vandalism. In 1977, the Thousand Islands Bridge Authority acquired the property for one dollar, with the agreement that all revenue from its operation would fund restoration efforts. Since then, millions of dollars have been invested to rehabilitate and preserve the castle and its surrounding structures, transforming it into a premier tourist destination.
Today, Boldt Castle has become a summer destination for those who want to experience the beauty of the Thousand Islands and its Gilded Age wonder. Like I do every year, visitors can explore much of Boldt Castle and its picturesque surroundings.
The first and second floors have been restored and furnished, offering a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of the early 1900s. The upper floors, though unfinished, house exhibits detailing the history of the Thousand Islands region and the Boldt family’s story.
Besides the castle, other buildings on the island include:
Alster Tower: A unique structure with slanted and uneven walls, originally intended as a playhouse.
Power House: Designed to house generators for the island, now featuring exhibits on early 20th-century power generation.
Hennery (Dove-Cote): Built to house George Boldt’s favorite birds.
Peristyle Arch: Intended as the grand entrance for boats arriving at the island.
Adjacent to Heart Island on Wellesley Island is the Boldt Yacht House, a remarkable structure that once accommodated the family’s yachts and now serves as a museum showcasing antique boats.
Boldt Castle is accessible seasonally from mid-May to mid-October by ferry or tour boat from various locations, including Alexandria Bay, NY, Clayton, NY, and Gananoque, Ontario. Private boaters can also dock at Heart Island. As the island is a U.S. port of entry, visitors arriving from Canada must present appropriate identification for customs processing. For more information on planning your visit, including hours of operation and admission fees, visit the official Boldt Castle website: https://www.boldtcastle.com/visitorinfo
About Madison’s Mission:
Step into the captivating world of Boldt Castle in 1903, where dreams are forged in the fires of adversity and love.
Madison Murray, the devoted maid to the legendary Louise Boldt, harbors a singular mission—to care for her ailing mistress while hiding her own painful past. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she meets Emmett O’Connor, the distinguished foreman overseeing Boldt Castle’s extravagant construction. Their connection sparks with promise, yet the chasm of class difference and hidden secrets loom large.
Just as their budding romance begins to flourish, tragedy strikes, shattering their world. A deadly accident leaves Emmett wrestling with guilt and at the center of an investigation that could unravel everything he holds dear. Then Madison finds herself ensnared in a dangerous coverup that threatens her very life.
When Mrs. Boldt passes away, Madison is left reeling—jobless and burdened by the weight of her perceived failures. In a world filled with uncertainty, can she summon the strength to move forward and confront her past? Will Emmett rise above his challenges to forge a future alongside the woman who has captured his heart?
Meet author Shannon Skaer
Susan loves connecting with fellow authors, so let’s chat!
Shannon Skaer is a homeschool mom of nine, beekeeper, and gardener. My life could be best described as a love affair with beauty, and my greatest joy is to know the One from whom all beauty comes. I write about the things I geek out over: ancient civilizations, unexplained catastrophes, forgotten people and improbable possibilities.
Tell us about your newest book.
Based on an incredible true story of an apocalyptic natural disaster, The Last Climb is a snapshot of what was arguably the greatest flood since Noah.
What inspired you to write your story?
I grew up in the path the Missoula Flood took. It would have covered my childhood home in hundreds of feet of water, and even if I began running as soon as the earth began shaking, I wouldn’t have made it to high ground in time. That’s not only a commentary on my running skills, the wave was 400 ft tall in places and reached speeds of over 60 mph.
What genre do you focus on.
I write Historical Fiction and Science fiction, but my interest in both genres is sparked by what I do focus on–Very Old Things. Historical fiction is about Old Things, so that genre is an obvious choice. What’s less obvious is my path to Science Fiction, so let me give you a tour: Nothing is older than the civilizations before Noah’s flood. Unfortunately, they were wiped out of existence. Unless…(feel that sci-fi vibe building?) unless pre-flood civilizations left behind a moon base similar to the one Elon Musk wants to build. What if the Artemis missions uncovered the oldest archeological discovery of them all–on the moon?
Why do you write?
I write stories to introduce readers to Creation Science. I want to demonstrate that our faith rests securely on the reality of a wise and living Creator, and to inspire Christians to rejoice in the firm foundation of His word.
What is your work schedule like when you’re writing a book?
I write when the kids are asleep. That means I get up at 5:30 and we don’t let the kids come downstairs until 7AM. It’s 100% legal. I checked.
What is the hardest part of being an author?
I want to spend ten years on each story, making every detail shine. I also want it done yesterday. So far, I haven’t been able to achieve either.
What’s one thing your readers should know about you?
I once appeared on Broadway. I accidentally got trapped on the road Broadway, in downtown NYC inside a huge 90’s RV filled with screaming toddlers.
Do you have other books? We’d love to know.
I have two books in the works, one sci-fi and one historical fiction.
What are you working on now?
Imagine Scarlett O’Hara caught in the web of intrigue and rebellion that was the earth’s first one-world government, aka the Tower of Babel. She’s an optimist with a plan. He’s a murderer looking for revenge. The earth will never be the same.

Meet author Becky Van Vleet
Susan loves connecting with fellow authors, so let’s chat!
Becky Van Vleet is a retired teacher and principal and award-winning multi-genre author. She has been published in Guideposts, The Country Register, Christian Devotions Ministry, and more. Becky is frequently a guest speaker in schools where she promotes the values of the Greatest Generation and their WWII stories. She has devoted her website to preserving family memories and stories for the next generations through her monthly blogs.
Tell us about your newest book.
Unintended Hero is a WWII historical fiction, inspired by the true story of my father, Walter Troyan, a gunner on the USS Denver in the Pacific Theater. Growing up with parents from the Greatest Generation, I heard tidbits here and there about WWII. But nothing specific until I pressed my father later on for more details, and he allowed me to record his battles and experiences. Fast forward thirty years, I wrote his story, a book that preserves his first-hand accounts of the world’s most commemorative war.
What inspired you to write your story?
I’ve always been passionate about family stories. And I’ve always been passionate about WWII. Putting the two together, I knew I had to write my father’s personal and up-close story of his adventures, battles, and everyday experiences in the war. I believe these firsthand accounts should be preserved for future generations to read about the sacrifices, teamwork, and patriotism of the Greatest Generation. Unless these stories are preserved, we lose them with each person who passes away from this generation. My book was my calling.
What genre do you focus on.
As a writer, you could say I’m an outlier! I started writing children’s picture books first. And with this new knowledge of the publishing industry, I stepped out in faith to write my father’s story, my first adult novel. I’m currently working on my third historical fiction novel. Along the way, I wrote a women’s devotional book, a non-fiction piece of work. But the thread that runs through all my writing is family stories. All my writing centers around my family memories and actual situations. Why? This is what I’m passionate about.
Why do you write?
Writing is a hobby for me. I started late in life, after I retired. On this new path, I have garnered so many treasures I can’t name them all. But for starters, new writing friends. Some in person, others online. But the networking and the spirit that wraps us up together is extraordinary. I wouldn’t trade this blessing for anything.
What is your work schedule like when you’re writing a book?
Every day, and even every week is different, due to my active status as a grandmother. But typically, Mondays are clear, and I devote the whole day to writing. Other days, I usually tackle writing projects in the morning, after my devotion and taking a walk.
What is the hardest part of being an author?
I would have to say the hardest part for me as a writer is the marketing thing. Oh my, I’m never sure what steps to take or what direction to go. But since marketing is pretty significant whether you’re traditionally published or an indie writer, it must be tackled. It’s confusing for what really works. So many voices out there. Some marketing is costly. But I pray for discernment and ask God to be in control of my marketing efforts.
What’s the best part of your author’s life?
As I mentioned earlier, I have collected all these new writing friends I would not otherwise have had. And they are precious to me. I’m very active with my local ACFW chapter. It’s not uncommon for me to go out for lunch with one of the other members. I’m in a critique group that is amazing where we “meet and talk” weekly. I love investing in all the friendships.
What’s one thing your readers should know about you?
I am very passionate about the values we learn from the Greatest Generation. So much so, that I speak to students about the love of America we learn from this generation. Their spirit of patriotism, putting country first, and selfless acts of courage they displayed in WWII is like none other. And we must not forget. I donate my time for school presentation, in person or zoom, for grades seven and up. Feel free to get in touch with me if you’d like more information.
What is your favorite pastime?
Easy question, easy answer—writing, of course! I love it. But I also enjoy power walking, gardening, and oil painting.
Do you have other books? We’d love to know.
You can find my four “traveling” children’s books on Amazon as well as my women’s devotional book. These are all found under my name.
What are you working on now?
I recently completed my manuscript for my second novel, The Best Is Yet to Come, a true story about my Polish grandmother’s immigration to America. So excited it will be published by Elk Lake Publishing in 2025. I’m now going full bore with my third historical fiction novel, Wave After Wave, also inspired by a true family story. Additionally, I’m wrapping up my fifth “traveling” children’s picture book, also due to be published in 2025.

Tell us about your newest book.
Every summer, fifty-six-year-old Mari escapes the chaos of the big city to find solace in a small town in Minnesota, but this year, her vacation takes a dramatic turn when her best friend Theo is involved in an accident. As a trauma nurse, Mari is no stranger to tragedy, but this time, it hits too close to home. Fearing for Theo’s life, she turns to her faith and prays for his recovery. This leads her on a spiritual odyssey guided by Theo’s mysterious doctor. As Mari delves deeper into the unknown, she must confront a shocking truth that will test her faith and transform her heart.
What inspired you to write your story?
I had a couple of good friends who died suddenly, and this is where the idea of “Theo’s Heart” originated from. I am also intrigued by death and the afterlife.
What genre do you focus on.
My first novel was a Romance, and “Theo’s Heart” is a Christian Romance. I like writing love stories and feel they resonate with readers.
Why do you write?
I write because it’s therapeutic and helps me get my thoughts and feelings onto paper. While writing “Theo’s Heart,” I was reminded of the emotions I went through when I lost my close friends. That helped to create a beautiful story.
Who is your main character, and how did you choose that name?
There are three main characters – Mari, Theo and Matteo. Since this is a Christian Romance, I chose names that were in the Bible. I’m big on names and meanings.
What is your work schedule like when you’re writing a book?
I work during the school year, and have my summers off. I started writing “Theo’s Heart” while sitting in a coffee shop last winter. When I’m writing, it doesn’t disrupt my work, but it gets in the way of me spending time with my soulmate at home. I tend to be hyper-focused on my story.
What is the hardest part of being an author?
The hardest part is getting my name out there, and getting my books seen, read and reviewed. Marketing is super time-consuming and never-ending.
What’s the best part of your author’s life?
The best things about being an author are publishing the book and getting reviews to see how it resonates with readers. I just love hearing from readers, and getting reviews is like receiving gifts of kindness. It totally makes my day!
What’s one thing your readers should know about you?
I’m always willing to help. I love helping new authors and writers. I love to edit and/or read romance, short stories, and nonfiction, and I often advertise this free support to writers. I also love connecting with my readers.
How have you changed or grown as a writer?
Over the years, my writing has grown – my grammar, punctuation, sentence structure. I’m still learning how to show vs tell, and how to describe characters and scenes using our five senses. I also read a lot more than ever.
What is your favorite pastime?
I love playing badminton, fostering rescue dogs, and doing puzzles. When I was younger, I loved downhill skiing. I also love taking road trips and traveling.
Do you have other books? We’d love to know.
Yes – “Finding Faith” is a contemporary romance novel about a woman and a firefighter with twists and turns to keep the reader guessing.
What are you working on now?
I’m working on a novella titled, “Heaven Sent” which is about two women who are friends, thirty years apart, and there’s a guy, who is almost otherworldly. It’s about their friendships and a tragic turn of events.

Tell us about your newest book.
Texas Divided is the second book in the Lone Star Redemption Series. Morning Fawn was taken by the Comanche at age nine and integrated into the tribe. Nine years later, her uncle paid an ex-Texas Ranger to kidnap her from the Comanche. Her uncle plans to turn her into a plantation belle.
Morning Fawn is determined to escape the confines of his plantation and return to her adoptive tribe. But with each failed attempt, her hopes dwindle, and she wonders if she’ll ever find her way back home or if that world is forever lost to her.
Devon Reynolds, disillusioned by the price of affluence and the horrors of war, leaves his privileged life to join the Texas Rangers and later the cavalry. In the military service, he finds purpose . . . until he loses his wife during childbirth while he is away. In an attempt to redeem himself, he takes one last fateful mission to rescue Morning Fawn from the Comanche. But the results force him to question the righteousness of his actions and the cause he serves. When Devon returns to Texas as a Yankee spy, his path crosses with Morning Fawn once more. Determined to save her from the prison of her uncle’s house and to recover Texas from the Confederacy, Devon is drawn to her fierce spirit and unwavering resolve. But can two wounded souls, each fighting their own battles, find solace and love amidst the chaos of war?
What inspired you to write your story?
Texas Divided is the second book in my Lone Star Redemption series. The original inspiration for the series came from the first book in the series Texas Forsaken. Almost twenty-five years ago, I read the story of Cynthia Anne Parker, the most famous captive in the Old West. I was heartbroken for her, not because of her capture by the Comanche but because of her forced removal years later from the people she’d adopted as her own. Her story haunted my heart for more than two decades. I knew I had to do something about it. In my first book in the series, Texas Forsaken, I developed a character inspired by Cynthia, started at the moment of crisis, and wrote a different trajectory. I couldn’t give Cynthia a happy resolution, but I could give my character Eyes-Like-Sky a muted happy-ever-after. Eyes-Like-Sky has a second chance at life and love. Texas Divided is the story of Eyes-Like-Sky’s sister.
What genre do you focus on?
I write Christian historical romance because I want to be able to share my faith in my writing, I am captivated by history, and I love romance.
Why do you write?
I believe this is God’s calling on my life. I’ve been making up stories in my head since I was nine years old. Five years ago, God worked in my heart to reawaken my love for writing. It’s as if He said, “Now, is the time. Go do it.” I believe that fiction can penetrate and touch hearts in ways and depths that nonfiction cannot reach.
Who is your main character, and how did you choose that name?
Her name is Morning Fawn. She was captured by the Comanche when she was nine years old and became Comanche. When a Texas frontier scout kidnaps her from the only home she remembers and takes her to her uncle’s plantation, she fights to return. Her uncle attempts to turn her back into Miss Beth Logan, the girl she was before, but that girl is gone forever.
What is your work schedule like when you’re writing a book?
I do something with writing seven days a week. Some evenings, it might only be critiquing or researching, but writing is an everyday part of my life. Since I work full-time as a college English professor, I do most of my writing Friday through Sunday. When the semester ends, and my grading is finished for the year in May, I pour myself into my writing full-time for the summer. As resident of northern Minnesota, I thoroughly appreciate every moment of sunshine and summer I can absorb. I spend time outside everyday writing, either in my backyard or a nearby park by a lake. I’m also working on doing more with dictation so that when an idea strikes, I can get it recorded even if I don’t have access to my computer.
What is the hardest part of being an author?
Waiting for the first agent or editor/publisher to say yes to your manuscript. It can take years or decades. And you’re left wondering if it’s ever going to happen. I felt like I was moving toward my goals at turtle speed, but God had a plan. In His perfect timing, He threw open the doors for me to receive my first book contract in June 2023. And when it finally happened, the Lord answered my prayers beyond my expectations!
What’s the best part of your author’s life?
The best part is seeing readers get excited about something I’ve written, seeing it impact and capture their hearts.
What’s one thing your readers should know about you?
I love history. I love setting my stories in real places and work to weave in real, maybe lesser-known, historical events. I enjoy researching to find the right place at the right time
Do you have other books? We’d love to know.
Texas Forsaken, the first book in my Lone Star Redemption series, tells the story of Eyes-Like-Sky, a Comanche captive, and Captain Garret Ramsey. Seven years ago, Maggie Logan (Eyes-Like-Sky) lost everything she knew when a raid on a wagon train tore her from her family. As the memories of her past faded to nothing more than vague shadows, Maggie adapted—marrying a Comanche warrior, having a baby, and rebuilding her life. But in one terrible battle, the U.S. Cavalry destroys that life and she is taken captive again, this time by those who call themselves her people. Forced into a world she wants nothing to do with, Eyes-Like-Sky’s only hope of protecting her child may be an engagement to the man who killed her husband. Enrolled in West Point to escape his overbearing father, Captain Garret Ramsey has graduated and finds himself assigned to the Texas frontier, witnessing the brutal Indian War in which both sides commit atrocities. Plagued by guilt for his own role, Garret seeks redemption by taking responsibility for the woman he widowed and her baby. Though he is determined to do whatever it takes to protect them, is he willing to risk everything for a woman whose heart is buried in a grave? Or is there hope she might heal to love once more?
What are you working on now?
I’m currently working on the third book of my Lone Star Redemption series, Texas Reclaimed. The story takes place on the Texas Frontier in 1866. After the Civil War, Ben McKenzie, a scarred Yankee soldier, travels to Texas to make good on a promise he made to his friend who died in Andersonville at his side. Cora Scott is determined to hold onto her family’s land at all costs unless it means falling for the man whose wounds might be deeper than she can heal.
