Lodi Resident Pens First Novel



January 19, 2005 -- Making an impact in the community Divine Shout! tells a story of courage, strength, and faith during the pre-anti-Christ reign. "A compelling story inspired by end time biblical prophecies.' 'Thought provoking and revealing in its context." Are just some of the comments made by recent readers of pre-release copies.

Ms. Johnston's interest in writing resurfaced after her move to the valley from the East Bay Area of San Francisco in 1984, where, inspired by different sermons and teachings, she started writing short stories for bulletins and online magazines.

Adding to her list of talents, Ms. Johnston designed, and maintains four websites devoted to Christianity, and writing. She is past editor of Christian Activity News, and at one time held a position as Graphic Designer and Managing Editor, for Christian Online Magazine. Her interests in spiritually and religion are a family heritage that includes two ordained ministers.

Now widowed, she lives a full, active life, and is near completion of her second novel, that she will be submitting soon with hopes of an early 2006 release date. Ms. Johnston plans on focusing attention on helping non-profit organizations and churhes by donating a large percentage of proceeds form book signings back to the host.

Divine Shout! can be ordered by request from local Christian bookstores,(ISBN 1-4137-4568-7)or may be purchased online at Barnes and Noble, and Amazon bookstores. For further purchase information, bio, reviews, and excerpts please visit Ms. Johnston's website www.pcjnovel.com
