Debut Authors Make Bestseller List

The Evangelical Christian Publishers Association (ECPA) has recently released their Christian Fiction Bestellers through July 2011. You'll find the usual names there, Karen Kingsbury, Beverly Lewis, Francine Rivers, Ted Dekker, etc, but what's exciting is finding three 2011 debut authors on the Top 20 list.

Congratulations to Ruth Reid (The Promise of an Angel), Joan Wolf (Reluctant Queen), and Catherine Richmond (Spring for Susannah). Your achievement is encouraging to everyone hoping to break in and succeed in this tough publishing business.
