ROCKY MOUNTAIN RESTORATION - Lisa J Flickinger - One Free Book

Welcome back, Lisa. What are some of the spiritual themes you like to write about? I love to write about redemption, redemption of circumstances, character, or spiritual life. If I had to share the gospel in one word it would be redemption.

What other books of yours are coming out soon? Hmmm, good question. I have an adorable character in my head desperate to hit the page…however…this year has wreaked havoc in our family and finding the time to write has become difficult. I’m hoping for early next year.

I so understand that. Covid and other things have wreaked havoc in my life. If you could spend an evening with one contemporary person (not a family member of yours), who would it be and why? Sam Heughan, Jamie Frazer, from the Outlander series. We wouldn’t even have to speak, I would just enjoy basking in all his Scottish manliness.

What historical person would you like to meet (besides Jesus) and why? I would love to meet with some early pioneer women and really get a sense of the unique struggles faced when forging a home in the wilderness.

How can you encourage authors who have been receiving only rejections from publishers? I would encourage the authors to be open to learning as much as they can about the craft. The competition is stiff, and the better you become at writing, the more likely you are to get that first “send me your manuscript” email.

Tell us about the featured book. Rocky Mountain Restoration follows the journey of the antagonists from the first book in the series, Josephine Thorebourne and Snoop. They board a steamship along the Canadian coast to await their payout from a shady investment. Of course, nothing goes as planned and Josephine has to rely on the kindness of a newfound friend and a gorgeous Irish steward to help her solve the dilemma. 

Please give us the first page of the book.

SS Jameson, Pacific Ocean

“Eeeeeee!”

Owen’s spine juddered as he slipped a crystal goblet to the expanse of white linen.

Heads bobbed up around the SS Jameson’s dining saloon, their inquisitive eyes fixed on the door leading to the upper deck cabins.

His jowls vibrating, Walter Hamilton, Head Steward, stepped to Owen’s side and hissed under his breath. “Go! Stop that caterwauling.”

“Those are Maggie’s cabins, Sir.” Owen surveyed the room. She’d been attending General Chalmers and his wife Katherine, a moment ago. Where had Maggie gone?

“Aaaahhh!”

“I don’t care whose rooms they are. Go!”

Owen tugged a broad smile to his lips and pinched the beak of his wool cap. “Yes, Sir, right away, Sir.” With a crisp step, Owen marched his polished leather boots to the heavy mahogany door and pushed through.
