The Christian Ghetto.
Lovely term, isn't it? I didn't create it though. I'd never even heard the phrase until I started trying to find more ways to get my books to a particular audience of readers who seemed to be enjoying my work.
I found the term to be a bit derogatory and offensive and researched to learn more. Apparently the term came about as a way to define writing, music, art etc . . . overtly dealing with the Christian market--for the Christian market, Catholic,protestant, you name it.
In the writing arena, fiction produced by the larger Christian publishers, or rather work produced by CBA and ECPA affiliated publishers (and a handful of other publishers who produce fiction for other Faiths not covered by CBA and ECPA) fit this bill. The fiction these publishers turn out is not designed to appeal to general market readers thus the term Christian Ghetto.
In the beginning I was thrilled to have the support of CBA and ECPA market readers and I'm still thrilled. I simply want to make certain it's understood that my work is simply general market fodder equally enjoyed by readers from a very specific market.
Readers interested in both Never Ceese (the re-published paperback ISBN# 9780976994701) and Forever Richard (autographed copy available at www.TheWritersCafe.com) can find my books where ever books are sold. As an added bonus, because of the attention my stories have received from readers of the Christian market, my publisher and I have submitted and qualified for distribution through Spring Arbor.

Paperback of Never Ceese finally available!
I've gone through Lightning Source to make my self-published paperback available to those who wish to purchase it. I've done this due to Journey Stone's change in direction that had them dumping much of their inventory, including all their copies of Never Ceese, to a liquidator.
Because of this action, I receive no compensation for any of the hardbacks sold.
If you wish to support me, or at least encourage me to write more :), please order the paperback. Presently you can pre-order a copy from www.NeverCeese.com and of course I'll autograph that. In four to six weeks you'll be order to order it anywhere books are sold. And to top it off, I just received word from Lightning Source that the paperback has been tagged for the Christian market.
How's that!
Of course Christian bookstores exclusive to books published by the bigger Christian publishers still won't carry it, but then, why would they, right?
So off you go now and check out the new cover. Here's a snippit with the larger version at www.NeverCeese.com!
And don't forget to order your copy of Forever Richard from www.TheWritersCafe.com so you can have that autographed as well. :)
God Bless,
Sue Dent

And the reviews just keep coming. :D
My lucky number. Thirteen. The very day YELLOW30 SCI-FI posted their review of Never Ceese. That's right. Never Ceese. The reviews are still coming in and it's all good. You can read for yourself HERE!
Just remember, if you want to buy a copy of Never Ceese order it from me. I make no money of the books Journey Stone kept out of the inventory they sold off to a liquidator and is currently selling themselves.
It's sad but true.
I've got hardbacks I can sell myself and will have my self-published paperback version ready for sale shortly. :D
But do go check out this wonderful review.

Photo page on website!
Well, I've been working on the photo page on my website (www.ForeverRichard.com.) More photos to be coming very, very soon. Let me know if the format drives you mad. LOL Too bad if it does, it's the best I can do for now.

Christianbook.com
Ingram/Spring Arbor is the largest distributor to CBA and Christian retail stores. All of TWCP's books are now available through Ingram/Spring Arbor, as well as through all other distributors already. Their books have been certified safe and acceptable to this market.
Sadly, as of today, none are showing up for purchase on Christianbook.com. It could be because these books were just added into distribution with Spring/Arbor so we'll see.
I'm certainly glad my general market readers don't have this kind of difficulty finding my books. Good Grief!
