Great Golly! A Follow Fest :)



Name:
Nancy LaRonda Johnson

Fiction or nonfiction?
Fiction!!! :) and some poetry

What genres do you write?
Christian speculative, which is horror, sci-fi or fantasy, but written with a Christian angle or theology. I prefer a touch of horror.

Are you published?
Yes. I have two books published, Anticipation of the Penitent ($2.99 eBook), about a serial killer and his mother, and Salted With Fire ($0.99 eBook), a book of short stories and poetry with Biblical discussions.




Do you do anything in addition to writing?
I’ve taken a life art class before and loved it. Once I retire, I’d love to take more art classes, along with photography, and learn to play the harmonica. Now, I love church, my family and traveling.

Where can people connect with you?

And if you want more:

Please follow me on the right border of this blog!

Is there anything else you’d like us to know?
I'm a woman of few and many words, a pseudo-insomniac who loves to sleep in, whose favorite word in the English vocabulary is "vacation," and whose favorite thing to consider is what God is telling me right now.

I like reviewing books by indie writers, though I’m a slow reader (love audiobooks), and assisting spreading the word for blogger friends with their cover reveals, blog tours, etc. 

Thanks to: Melissa Maygrove for putting together this great fest. I'm looking forward to checking out everyone's posts tomorrow and over the weekend!

  5. Hi Nancy!

    Good luck with Follow Fest! I'm a little bit of an insomniac as well most days but use that to my advantage with my writing...;~)

    I am host of WRITERLY WISDOM WEDNESDAYS on my blog where authors, agents, and illustrators provide guest posts on everything regarding the writing and publishing industry. Come by some time and join the fun!

    Take care,

    Donna L Martin

  14. Congratulations on your books! Infusing Christian theology in your genre sounds like it takes your work to a deeper level. I'm interested in reading. Also, love that you post old journal entries. That is brave and fun! Makes me want to go back and read some of my journals.

    1. Thanks Guinevere & Libertad. Would love to connect and work together! I do write Christian fiction, though not the traditional, and saw on your blog that that doesn't interest you. But I'd still be interested in connecting more.

  17. I've always wanted to do art as well. I took a drawing class in college but was terrible at it! Now I paint (abstracts) sometimes, when the words won't come and I just need to get it out of me.
