(Monarch Publications)

Covenant of Lies The Revealed Truth is the second book in the Covenant of Lies series of self-created web of lies by Author Holly Spence.

Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the idea and inspiration to write Covenant of Lies the Revealed Truth?

Holly Spence: It is a series that began with the first release Covenant of Lies the Untold Truth. It was actually birthed after writing my stage play, “STOP! You Are Killing ME.”

I belong to Overflow Ministries Covenant Church, and we do a lot in the Performing Arts. A production team member suggested that our next production be a drama, so I came up with the story line. It was intended to be a stage production, but I had already “pushed the envelope” with “STOP”. To release it out of my mind, I decided it would be a book and it the first in a trilogy.

JP: What have you learned about yourself from your previously published novels that enhanced the way you tackled this book?

HS: Joey, this is a very interesting question. Having given it some thought, I thought that what I have learned most about myself is that I am NOT self-promoting as it relates to my accomplishments and writing, all of which has to change in order to get my books noticed by the masses.

JP: What inspired you as a publisher that keeps you coming back for more hard work in the book industry?

HS: What has inspired me as a publisher that keeps me coming back is the desire to provide wholesome entertainment that hit real life issues.

JP: As an author, what is your writing process? How long did it take for you to start and finish Covenant of Lies the Revealed Truth?

HS: My writing process when writing non-fiction is actually the title of the book and outline the chapter titles. When writing fiction it’s the complete opposite; it is having the scenario and how it will play out. It took me about four months to write Covenant of Lies the Revealed Truth.

JP: What’s next for Holly Spence?

HS: I have completed another stage production called “Dysfunction…It Does Affect Generations”. I would like to thank you for opportunity to interview with you today.
