Allison Pearl Combines Faith and Suspense in Her Fiction (#114)

Storytelling with Fiction Author Allison Pearl

Allison Pearl is a Christian Suspense author of the 'Love and Danger in St. Claire' series with two books so far, Glazed Suspicion and Dunked in Trouble. She loves books, tea, chocolate, and watching old movies with her husband and black lab. And she loves the writing community.

“Making it in the craft is being brave enough to take something from your brain, put it on paper and show it to somebody.” - Allison Pearl on making it as an author

Combining Faith and Fiction

Allison says that faith is a big part of her life. So is reading for enjoyment. The two are difficult to separate, so when she reads she expects to find faith in the story. That’s why she considers herself a Christian fiction author. The two can be completely intertwined.

“Christian suspense often loses the suspense. I don’t want to know in chapter 1 that everything is going to be okay. There’s nothing wrong with happily ever after. I just want people to question, ‘maybe there won’t be.’” - Allison Pearl on Christian fiction
