Twelve year old Selah’s quest to become an equestrian superstar is haunted by her grandmother’s past and hindered by a horse with an attitude. She dreamed of a perfect sweet horse, but life is not a dream.

SELAH (Say-la) aspires to be an equestrian superstar. That would require a horse.

HER DILEMMA: Grandpa wants nothing to do with horses.

THEN: Selah sees buzzards circling the grasslands behind Grandpa’s farm. They are stalking a horse trapped in wire and Selah is its only hope.

DANGEROUS: The horse is wild and defiant – jeopardizing Selah’s dreams.

FOILED: The legal owner searched for the horse for two years and wants it back.

BUT: Selah is confident that God will provide her heart’s desire.

MEMORIES: Grandpa shows Selah a video, from long ago, of a phenomenal equestrian. Selah declares that she wants to be like her and Grandpa explains the rider was her grandmother.

HOPE: A world renowned horse trainer offers to train SweetDream and Selah.

FOILED AGAIN: Her parents could ruin everything unless Sweet Dream’s unruly behavior ruins it first.

LOST: Selah’s opportunity to mirror the equestrian talent of her renowned grandmother evaporates when the horse causes mayhem at the trainer’s facility.

NEVER GIVE UP: Will Selah gather her courage and face up to the trainer to save her aspirations?

So many things to do before a book launch!Logo with light behind cross

I started writing Selah’s Sweet Dream in August of 2013. The book is getting closer to time to being published!   A longtime artist friend is designing the cover..  You’re going to LOVE it!  She has artistic talent on loan from God.

I ordered galleys this week!  Galleys are preview copies of the manuscript that are strictly functional. It’s like printing your book at OfficeMax, only less expensive!   I’ve started sending out the first of my review copies and am humbled at the feedback!   I’ve put an incredible amount of hours into crafting this story so that it will delight my readers. I hope the Lord will consider that time well invested!
