I am working on my second novel, a continuation of Behind Church Doors. Many readers ask about the character, Cletus. He is a recovering alcoholic who later gets added to the church and is now learning to live a faithful Christian life. Readers express compassion for Cletus. Perhaps it's because he means no harm and is humble, and because these readers believe in second chances. Cletus also is a thinker who now looks out for his elderly, ailing mother. He is developing a closeness to Angeleese, a sweet lady with intellectual disabilities and five small children. Some question the logic of people with disabilities entering into relationships that lead to marriage. However, I have seen such marriages work quite well. In the second novel, I may just give Cletus and Angeleese a chance.
Peace,
Sylvia
