Doubleday Book Club picks up The Unfinished Gift

Just got some exciting news from my publisher. Another major book club has picked up The Unfinished Gift. Earlier Crossings, the largest Christian book club, selected it for their members. Now Doubleday Large Print book club has signed on. It's hard to know the exact numbers, but my publisher estimates there are between 400,000 and 1 million members between them both. Another interesting aspect is that while Doubleday has a Christian fiction section, it reaches a wider audience of non-Christian members too.

Plus...it will be pretty cool to see the book in a hardback, large print edition.

    It did make my heart beat faster. At 52, I'm up for anything that gets my heart beating faster. One thing that stirred me even more was looking at the 2 categories my book would likely show up in on the Doubleday site: Christian fiction and Holiday Fiction: There were only 22 books listed on one and 11 on the other (and almost all were from bestselling authors).
