Writing about History & Myth from a Feminine POV

As a youngster, Holli was the type to stay up way beyond her bedtime with 3-4 books on her lap devouring them all (grant it there was also a personal pan pizza on the line!). As an adult, Holli found herself more drawn to non-fiction writings - especially those that broke barriers and viels of history, myth and spirituality with a feminie view point.  These books quite literally saved her life.

However, in the past ten years or so, finding good fictional books that whisked her away to far off imaginative lands has been surprisingly and frustratingly difficult.  She wanted fun, adventure, purpose, meaning and a story that pulled you in and refused to let you go.  She has purchased or borrowed so many books that just end up one-fourth to maybe one-half read before being tossed into the compost heap.

That desire for something more, something that explored the hidden caves of desire, spirituality and history -- both literally and figuratively as a gateway to the soul -- was birthed during quarantine of the Covid19 time.

During that odd time in all our lives, Holli began wondering if she could turn her conversational, educational and thought-provoking writing style into prose for fiction?

If so - could she weave topics important to modern day women with ancient myths of women of power, purpose and living with complete autonomy?

Could she write stories that help women understand their place as Gatekeepers to Life and Death?

Well, for better or worse, Holli decided to launch into this Heroine quest and is inviting you along for the wild scrumptious ride. 

Over on the Substack  The Sacred Tyrst is where you will find her Biblical historical fiction novel that does just that. Weaving a new story of who could have possibly taught Jesus his Peace & Love stance.

 

...And so much more!
