Show Notes

Abbey Downey is our guest author for this bonus episode. Abbey started writing inspirational romance stories during naptime when her kids were babies and found she couldn’t stop. She previously published two books with Love Inspired Historical under the pen name Mollie Campbell. She also works with Spark Flash Fiction producing a quarterly digital magazine that contains love stories under 1000 words.
 
A life-long Midwestern girl, Abbey lives in central Indiana with her husband, two kids, and one rather enthusiastic beagle. She loves watching her kids play sports and fixing up a 1900 farmhouse with her husband.

 

I am so excited to have Abbey with us today as we celebrate her newest book An Uncertain Road, which launches today.

 

 

Abbey discusses her inspiration for her book An Uncertain Road, and shares fun facts she discovered during her research. She also talks about the upcoming books in the series and where readers can purchase her book. Abbey provides ways for listeners to connect with her and discusses the book launch.

 

Takeaways:

 

·      Women played significant roles in history, including in sports and racing.

·      Writing male characters can be challenging for female authors.

·      Researching historical events and locations adds depth and authenticity to a story.

·      Abbey’s personal experiences and relationships can influence character development.

·      The ending of a race in the book was inspired by a real event.

·      Abbey includes fun facts and details from her research in her stories.

·      Abbey has two more books planned in the series, featuring female baseball umpires and an explorer’s club.
