Cover for A THOUSAND SLEEPLESS NIGHTS

One of my favorite parts of the book publishing process is seeing the cover for the first time. It’s the first chance I get to experience my book the way the consumer does.

A Thousand Sleepless Nights releases in October and is a book I’m very excited about. It’s about a woman battling cancer while at the same time fighting regrets about her past, the kind of mother she was, the wife she was. It’s about a husband desperately trying to support his wife and heal the wounds that have never fully mended. It’s about a family torn apart by neglect and bitterness.

If you’ve ever been touched by cancer, either personally or through a family member, relative, friend, or neighbor, this book is for you.

This is a book you can pass along to your mother, your grandmother, your daughter, your sister (or father, grandfather, son, or brother).

Being a cancer survivor myself much of the inspiration for the story was drawn from my own experiences, my own emotional blueprint, my own questions and fears and depression, and ultimately, my own hope and faith that God truly is bigger than anything we face here on earth.

Mark your calendars for October; follow this blog; like us on Facebook. You don’t want to miss this one.

I can really see how [this book] will be a blessing to many who have to face the devestation of cancer and loss.
--Tina H.

A Thousand Sleepless Nights will tug at your deepest emotions as it unfolds the evil of cancer and the power of relationships. The characters are endearing, real and relatable, as is the true battles they fight: illness, apathy, love, commitment and balancing life. King's novel strikes a vein, and sends hope to the heart of the matter--a fine read for anyone in need of healing.

This is a stirring novel that paints a great picture of cancer and its effects on not only those who have it, but their families and friends.

This bittersweet tale of illness--both physical and emotional--and the way lives are ultimately changed by its effects makes it a story for everyone, especially for those struggling to find forgiveness and healing.
--Claudette W.

A Thousand Sleepless Nights is a novel that touches you on a deep emotional level. It is a beautiful story about surviving, suffering, and what the true meaning of love is and how cancer, while devastating, can pull together a family torn apart by a past of neglect. A beautiful masterpiece!
--Joshua R.
