I have a special treat for you today–a short autobiographical story I wrote about a life-changing experience I had as a little girl in Japan. It’s a bit sensitive, showing parts of my character I sure can’t shake. But it was quite formative.
If I hadn’t survived, you wouldn’t be getting this email today.

March 2026 BOOK SUGGESTIONS
Featuring:
Curse of Infiniti by Rachel Hetrick: CLEAN | FANTASY (Free!)
As she wakes up in a bedroom she doesn’t recognize, Ellayne becomes increasingly aware of one thing: she has no memories—no identity—no name. (FREE DOWNLOAD)
Take a look at Interregnum, the newest book in the Seekers Series.
I’m thrilled to whole-heartedly recommend my friend and fellow author J.A.Webb’s Kickstarter. I have read book one, Fragments. Highly recommend this series. I’m backing to be able to read the third book and the audiobook.
The storyworld has the feeling of Medieval Mystery-–but takes place in the Near Future with trains and factories. The “Fragments” are pieces/quotes of the Bible that people are trying to reassemble after a terrible occurrence caused the disappearance of all the world’s Bibles.
As you read it, you’ll find it has the dark and despairing feel of 1984, while its drama and faith storyline gives a hat-tip to Left Behind.
One group remains in hiding and is gathering Fragments. The dark order is hunting them down.
★★★★★ I hope you will back this project! DO NOT MISS OUT!

From the Desk of Darlene N. Böcek Faith-building Sci-fi Fantasy Stories Hey Reader ! The Screwtape Letters I’ve always wanted to read The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis, but never got very far into the book. That is, until I found the AUDIOBOOK of it for free on YOUTUBE If you’re not aware, The Screwtape Letters is a fictional series of letters from a senior demon to his inexperienced-demon ‘nephew,’ Wormwood. In the story, Wormwood has been assigned to a man who very soon becomes a…
From the Desk of Darlene N. Böcek Faith-building Sci-fi Fantasy Stories Hey Reader ! A JOURNEY WORTH TAKING! I am almost done with Acadia. I’m not a military sci-fi fan whatsoever. But I started listening to this FREE AUDIOBOOK by Sterling Nixon, and was sucked into the story world. It takes place in a futuristic American dystopia where the people have become warriors like Trojans and they are fighting off an assault of ‘roaches,’ which are a kind of alien insect species that has invaded…
