Show Notes

On this episode of “The Romantic Side of Suspense,” I’m talking with Amy Schisler, a novelist, poet, children’s book author, spiritual writer, blogger, reader and avid traveler with years of professional experience in all manner of writing-related endeavors. Whether she’s writing novels filled with faith and inspiration, books that children will love, or her weekly blog devoted to family life and faith, she loves connecting and resonating with her readers. Amy’s first novel, A Place to Call Home, a romantic suspense, debuted in 2014, and her much-loved Chincoteague Island Trilogy has won numerous literary awards. Amy lives on the Eastern Shore of Maryland with her husband, Ken, their daughters, Katie and Morgan (and sometimes their daughter and son-in-law, Rebecca and Anthony), and their dogs, Rosie and Luna. When she’s not writing, Amy can usually be found on a boat in the Chesapeake Bay or hiking in the Rocky Mountains, most often with a good book in her hand. “My writing has evolved over my lifetime,” Amy said. “From when I was a little girl and up through college, I wrote poetry and short stories. … But I’ve always loved fiction—it’s been my escape from everything. … When I decided I was going to write a book, … I just naturally went to fiction.” Connect w/Amy Website: http://amyschislerauthor.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/AmySchislerAuth Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AmySchislerAuthor Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/8436890.Amy_Schisler Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amyschislerauthor/ Listen to the podcast for more from our interview, plus an excerpt from Seeking Tranquility.
