Meet the Characters Part 2: Cammie, Chris, Blake, Ashleigh and Perry

5/9/2023

I’m a day late, but hopefully not a dollar short! I’m excited to introduce you to the support cast of To Save a Life (Click here to purchase!) If you missed part one of this post duology 😉 click here!

I’ve been overwhelmed by the support I’ve received for TSAL so far and y’all, I can’t wait for this book to be in paperback! My designer is doing an excellent job and I cannot wait for y’all to hold this baby in your hands!

But until then, let’s hit today’s post, shall we?

Camilla "Cammie" Carter-Tate

Age: 38
Occupation: Abortion Clinic Director
Story Position: Antagonist, sorta

About: Cammie has worked in the abortion industry ever since college. Fighting to survive and care for her baby brother after their mother died, she’s a self-made woman. She can handle anything life throws at her. She has risen to the position of clinic director through blood, sweat and tears and no one is going to take her dream of helping women away from her. Not even her pro-life brother. Definitely not a baby that survives… After all, they both would have been better off dead, right?

Chris Tate

Age: 30s
Occupation: Lawyer
Story Position: Side Character

About: Chris is just trying to keep the peace. He loves his family, and it kills him they disagree on practically everything. Why can’t they just get along? And why can’t he be excited about having a nephew just because his wife’s clinic failed to kill him? Can’t bygones be bygones? Why can’t they all just be together and let their differences rest?

Blake Carter

Age: None of your business
Occupation: Army Drill Sergeant
Story Position: Side Character

About: He’s a warrior, but he’s been on the run. Chased away by the woman he loved, he gave up fighting to see his kids and just let them live their lives, not knowing they needed him. But he knows now. And he has the chance to make it right. But will he?

Ashleigh Jones

Age: 30s
Occupation: NICU Registered Nurse
Story Position: Side Character

About: Ashleigh is Roman’s first cousin; her father and his mother were siblings. Caring for her elderly parents is a hard load to shoulder, but her nursing job helps cover everything. Seeing so many babies live and die under her care is stressful and she remembers each one. But there is something extra special about helping these little fighters and nothing more rewarding than getting to be a part of their recovery…she only hopes Natty will be one of them.

Perry Daniels

Age: 30s
Occupation: Paramedic
Story Position: Sidekick

About: Perry has always wanted to be in the medical field, ever since he was a child. He’s never been good with babies or ladies, unless it was a situation where he was saving their life. Otherwise, this cool, calm and collected Paramedic turns into a hot mess! But when Roman needs him most, he’s always there for him.

And that concludes our introductions to the caste of TSAL! Do you have any questions? About these characters, about the book, about content that might be brought up? Please ask in the comments or feel free to contact me via the form on the contact page! I will be making more posts about To Save a Life in the coming weeks, so all suggestions are welcome!

Question of the Day: Have you read TSAL yet? Who are you most excited to meet?

Have a Blessed Day!

Writing Update || A Note From My Desk

1/17/2022

4 Comments

This is long overdue. In fact, I almost feel like it’s gonna be a recap of last January’s writing update. But that’s okay! Life happens. So, today, I’m gonna share about a few of my writing projects and what I have going on in each one!

To Save a Life ||

This is the first book in my series called Natty’s Warriors. I am currently editing this book and hope to have it prepared for publication by the end of the month. That is the goal. We shall see what the Lord has in store!

Natty's Warrior's Book 2 ||

This book will be a duel timeline story with To Save a Life, though from a different POV. Many who read early versions of TSAL begged for Cammie’s story, which is not resolved in book one. In fact, now, it’s barely touched on. But her story needs to be heard. So this year, I hope to draft this story and prepare it for publication, Lord willing next year.

The Battlefield is Silent ||

This is book five in my Battle for Heritage Series (click here for details on previous books). I have been struggling with rewrites on this story and it needs a lot of work. But my goal is to have it ready for publication this fall. Will it happen? I don’t know, but all I can do is give it my best and leave the rest in God’s hands.

I have a handful of side projects to work on in various stages of outlining, drafting and revising, but none of them are top priority at the moment. If that changes during the course of the year as other projects move off my plate, I will update you on the new ones! Until then, stay tuned!

What is your current work in progress? What book are you most excited for in 2022? Share them with us below!

Have a Blessed Day and God Bless America!
