Darla McCammon loves to create. She paints, she writes, and she creatively cares for animals. It’s the three “a”s as she puts it. Art, Animals, and Authoring.
A long time writer, Darla won contests in high school and has been actively on the pen ever since.
She says that writing the first draft is easy…just getting the ideas, characters, and dialogue out is fun. The re-write is the challenge. But she gets up about five-thirty every morning to spend some time with Jesus, and then some time with characters in her book.
Her most recent publication “Diamond Bait” is quite a suspenseful thriller of a mystery. Yes, suspense, thrill and mystery, all entwined to present a page-turning luxury of reading.
This book is about betrayal, faith, heroism, and all things worthy of a Hollywood movie production. I suggest Felicity Jones as Mattie and Shia LaBeouf as Joel.
Filled with phrases that will color the paragraph for you…“The report from the gun deafened me while the roar reverberated and echoed through the hospital halls”..this book is worthy of your attention.
And, thank you Mrs. Dewey (high school teacher) for inspiring and setting forth Darla as an artist of the written word.
