Salted With Fire Blog Tour and Netgalley Knockout

I'm proud to be taking part in this blog tour. Salted With Fire by Nancy LaRonda Johnson is a collection of flash fiction and poetry. A fulfilled christian her book highlights her writing journey and a path with God. I know her through her blog and am happy to say that this blogger and author both worth to read and know.



Salted With Fire

Black magic, murder, insanity… humor, honor and devotion. Salted With Fire is a journey of flash fiction and poetry that shows my writing transformation from worldly to wanting to please God.

Flash fiction is my passion; poetry is my release. I love creating a complete story, with a beginning, middle and end, with twists, drama, compassion and horror, all under 1000 words. Salted With Fire isn’t just a book of stories and poetry, it is my journey as a writer, from writing only for the mere joy of it regardless of the message, to writing stories that highlight God’s will for people, even if the stories are not religious in nature.

Inside are fifteen flash fiction pieces and twelve poems with full-color pictures, and short Biblical discussions after each story.
