Wherever you have people, you have factions and disagreements and personality conflicts.

Actually 'Soon' has more than the Left Behind series, but I really believe less is more.

I was raised in a Christian home and, in fact, my mother led me to Christ as a youngster.

I was raised as a Christian but the transaction has to be made by yourself - you and God - at some point.

My dream remains to inform and entertain through fiction in the form of novels and movies that compete in the marketplace of ideas.

Good fiction must be entertaining- but what makes fiction special- and True- is that the realness of a novel allows it to carry a larger message.

As for dialogue, I think it keeps things moving to cut to the chase.
