Seventh Dimension -
The Door Offers Hope, Inspiration for Bullied and Troubled Teens
GAINESVILLE, Fla., May 23,
2013 - For every child who struggles with doubt, for every kid who has
been bullied, for every teen who comes from a broken home, and for every
young adult who longs to be understood - there is hope. Best-selling author Lorilyn
Roberts shares once again the power of redemption in this Christian
coming-of-age novel. Written in first-person, Seventh Dimension - The
Door reads as a first-hand account by a young girl, Shale Snyder, who
is treated unfairly by her family, school, and classmates. Fear distorts
her sense of self-worth and she is enveloped with guilt because of a
secret from her past.
While on a sojourn similar
to Christian in Pilgrim's Progress, Shale discovers talking
animals and a handsome young man with whom she falls in love. Her journey
is one of self-discovery as she battles personal demons, family conflict,
wicked underlings, and comes face-to-face with a personal decision she
must make - bound up in the king she meets in first-century Israel.
"I spent two years
developing the plot," says Roberts, "as part of my Master of
Arts in Creative Writing. I love the classics, particularly books by
Charles Dickens, Fydor Dostoevsky, Emily Bronte, C.S. Lewis, and J.R.R.
Tolkien. I hoped to provide an entertaining story that would evoke deep
spiritual longing." Roberts adds, "I was a troubled child from
a broken home on the road to juvenile delinquency - until I met the
king."
From May 23 through May 31, Roberts is offering the Kindle
version of Seventh Dimension - The Door for 99 cents on Amazon
