The Pageant Wagon Pocket Book Series
Inviting YOU to tell His Story through your stories in three different formats:
Have you experienced God in a powerful way and feel you have to tell His Story through your story
but don’t think you have the skills or storyline to write a whole book?
Do you love to study the impact of God in the lives of people or events in American or world history?
Do you think you’d like to write about what you’ve discovered to inform and inspire others?
Are your journals filled with ideas for characters, settings, and thrilling plotlines for fictional stories
and you’d like to pull all your ideas together into a short story format for publication?
