I’d like to introduce you to an inspiring and talented bloger and writer Brooke McGlothlin who is releasing her new e-book Notes to Aspiring Writers this Tuesday, July 19th!
Recently Brooke has challenged aspiring writers to write an elevator pitch for their book. Below is my elevator pitch for my new series called Missionary Kid Chronicles and the first book of the series is “The Naga Trilogy”
Suppose you only had 30 seconds in an elevator to explain your book. What would you say?
This is what I would say:
Finally, a Harry Potter like Supernatural thriller for Christian youth. Join Chaz, a missionary kid, on a journey into a remote jungle in SE Asia. Be swept away by life endangering events that will either doom or save a group of desperate villagers. Encounter mortal-threat, mystery and spiritual warfare, as he learns to hear the Voice of God and discover his spiritual giftings. A high stakes battleground determines the fate of many souls. The Final showdown will have you anxious for the sequel trilogy: “Garuda’s Wings.”
The author is a Missionary Kid himself and has lived in Thailand for over 18 years primarily involved in Church Planting and Frontier Missions and has led over 40 outreach teams. He, his wife and two children live in ChiangMai Thailand. He now wants to prepare this next generation for spiritual warfare and hearing God’s voice as he writes a series of books from the point of view of missionary kids.

Sean,
Your elevator pitch sold me! As a mother of 4 Littles, one who is completely enthralled with Harry Potter, I will be most anxious to offer The Naga Queen as an exciting reading option. Good luck!
Kristin,
Sorry it took so long, but book one is finally finished.

Thanks,
I wrote most of this book a few years ago. Then we had 2 kids. As a full time missionary and father, something had to give… for a while. My current goal is to have it finished by August.
Great post. I loved it.
I can’t wait to read this.
