Holihan Talks End-Times, Deception Day with 'Heart to Heart' Host
End-time novels always elicit keen interest among Christians, but the response from The Epiphany Deception: Earth's Prophetic Destiny Against the Guardian Cherub has been overwhelming. Author Michael S. Holihan, who lives in northeast Texas, was asked to participate in a televised discussion of the book on "Heart to Heart." The show, produced and aired on KLFI TV 35, is affiliated with FamilyNet. This local interview was conducted by the show's host, Larry Crank, and lasted about 15 minutes. "Some fascinating topics were brought up about Iran's military and the new electronic weapon that they have been developing and planning to use against the United States," says Holihan. "There were a few startling revelations about the antichrist, Turkey's key role, America's destiny, and the coming conflict between Islam and the West."

Author "Excited and Having Fun" with Publicity Leg of Authorship
At gatherings in her local Lumberton, North Carolina, Sarah Goebel, author of Satisfied Woman, scored book sales as well as something more valuable-the opportunity to meet, greet, and minister to her core audience. The book signings-held at a Family Christian Stores outlet and a local Christian bookstore-were very successful. Reports Goebel, "Seventeen books were sold, and I had the opportunity to minister to several persons. I have had three radio interviews to date and currently have four more scheduled." Included among those interviews was a 15-minute chat with Moody Broadcasting Radio, which airs more than 374 stations coast to coast. "I am excited and having fun with the radio interviews and hope they will result in book sales. So get ready, Xulon, to take orders and print those books!

Stellar Reviews, PR Write-up, and Awards for Xulon Author
Whatever Xulon author Robert Hammond has been doing to promote his book, it's working. The tenacious author of Grace Period: The Awakening of Abel Adams used his pen to detail a story of one man's deliverance from a labyrinth of crime, cults, and incarceration, and to witness the triumph of truth over falsehood and rejoice in the discovery of love through the power of faith. One thing Hammond certainly is enjoying right now, aside from the power of faith, is the fruits of his labor. A slew of interviews, book signings, and critical praise were eclipsed only by a recent nod from the Indie Excellence Book Awards 2007, which placed his book as a finalist in both their "religious fiction" and "African-American fiction" categories.
Now that Hammond's demand as a writer is red-hot, several stations have been eager to book him on their show. "The Big Finale" program, hosted by Bruce Collins, sat down recently with Hammond for a chat about Abel Adams, and Collins has promised a review of his novel to AmericanChronicle.com, WorldSentinel.com, and raidersnewsnetwork.com. The interview is located at www.radiohaven.net.
Additionally, Hammond's book landed him a stellar press release and critical acclaim from Debra Gaynor of ReaderViews. The website's Tyler R. Tichelaar also sat down for an interview with Hammond to discuss Abel Adams, the Bible's influence in Western literature, reader responses, and upcoming projects. Throughout the course of the chat, Hammond revealed his plans for a Grace Period screenplay and another screenplay he is working on titled Black's Law. The full interview can be accessed at http://www.readerviews.com/InterviewHammond.html.
A currently featured book on ReaderViews.com, the book has received excellent reviews and article coverage as well as the release of a multimedia PreView (see www.readerviews.com for more information). |
