Randall Roberson

About

Randall was born in Clanton, Al. and as a child, was moved from place to place across most of central Alabama by his father. As he grew older, his passion for writing also grew as he began reading anything that caught his interest. His writing began when he was seventeen years old, most of the time writing short stories for his family. He also tried writing gospel songs to have recorded and published, but this was to no satisfaction.
   After he was grown, had married and his daughter was born, Randall put his writing efforts aside for many years. As his daughter grew older, he began to tell her stories of a little boy, and the humorous things he would say and do. Being surrounded by his nieces and nephews, which were in the age catagorie of his daughter, Randall would often times have an audience of several children which enjoyed these stories as well. Soon after, he started to write again, putting his character he had created into a manuscript, yet maintaining the overall humor of the stories he had told.
  Randall finished the manuscript in 1995 and tried to have his work published on many occasions, but knowing nothing about publishers, this too seemed to be fruitless. He pursued avenues which seemed to promise publication, only to find that these were vanity presses, and he would have to pay for publishing. His manuscript sat dormant for fourteen years, until he was advised of a publisher that accepted unsolicited material. Thinking the same thing would probably happen as before, but still wanting his work to be published, he submitted to this publisher. The results of his efforts is now available at the areas on the home page; Randall has finished writing the third book in the series of Junior's Adventures, and will continue his writing.

Description

<p>FRIENDS IN HIGH PLACES<br /><br />At barely nineteen, Angelica Donovan became one of the more successful winners of the T.V. show Our Next Super Model. The world assumed she was destined for a happy, fairy tale life as ‘Angel,’ the beautiful girl who was living the dream; sadly, that wasn’t to be the case. As the years passed, she flashed her million dollar smile to all her fans and fought to stay on top in a profession where you never knew who it was safe to trust while the fashion industry took big bites out of her heart and soul. And trust was a constant challenge for Angel due to the painful childhood secret she guarded as carefully as she did her heart. As a result, she never did find her true love on earth.<br /><br />When she wakes up ‘dead’ from a heart condition a month before her thirty-fifth birthday, Angel is at first relieved to find there is no death, just a change of state, like ice to water, and then she’s scared because her biggest and most important adventure is about to begin.<br /><br />Angelica is chosen to be an angel in training as a spirit guide for three souls on earth! Her assignment is to help two women to gain the courage and confidence to find, recognize and embrace the love that had eluded Angel in life. But her biggest challenge will be to save a very special little girl from the same evil experience that had poisoned Angel’s own earthly happiness and altered the course of her life.<br /><br />Will Angel be able to heal her own shattered soul in the process? And will the three souls she is guiding be able to recognize her, not as a ghostly threat, but as one of those ‘friends in high places’ we all have; the kind who often end up earning their wings.<br /><br /> </p>
