Bestselling co-author of Seriously Funny, Jeff Lucas, returns to writing fiction with his
new book Up Close and Personal.
Up Close and
Personal – What Helen Did Next is the sequel to Jeff’s first piece of fiction,
Helen Sloane’s Diary published in
2008 by Authentic Media.
The book follows the insightful, sometimes painful and
often hilarious antics and musings of 27 year old Christian, Helen Sloane, as
she struggles to find love, battles with grief and juggles life as a social
worker and member of New Wave Christian Fellowship at Frenton-on-Sea.
Battling with relationships, men and her career, Helen is
coming to terms with the death of her father, whilst trying to live out her
Christian life and help find a new pastor for their church. Corruption, chaos,
passion, laughter, tears and thought-provoking lines are the ingredients of
this page-turning read.
Jeff commented:
‘Writing as a 27 year old Christian woman is quite a lot of fun, so I decided
to do it again. Helen Sloane was an interesting experiment, which my friends in
America just don’t get, they say “How can a 54 year old grey Christian man
write as a young Christian woman?” but the idea behind it was to use story,
humour and some fun to explore interesting issues that most Christians face
every day.’
Up Close and Personal is available now from Authentic Media or your local Christian bookshop:
