BEFORE YOU CONTINUE…
A Message from Michael
It is probably expected for me to say something here like, “Welcome to the Michael Phillips Books website.” Maybe that phrase explains why I have delayed knowing exactly what to say. Because this is more than a “website” to me.
Actually, I don’t think of it as a website at all. It is more like a library in our home, a library of many rooms filled with nooks and crannies of different kinds of books, each filled with people and adventures from all around the world.
This is my writing office, my home, the world of my imagination, my thoughts, my dreams.
The rooms of this library is where I have been living and working and writing for almost fifty years. The men and women and children and teens and old folks—villains and heroes, cads and role models, mothers, fathers, sons, and daughters—who people these rooms are my companions and friends.
They have been friends who have encouraged me, made me laugh, made me cry (yes authors can cry with their friends too!). They have helped me grow. They have taught me truths about God I hadn’t known before I met them.
The most natural thing in the world when you have good friends is wanting them to know each other.
I want you to know these literary friends of mine. I know you will treasure their friendship like I do. They will encourage you too, make you laugh, maybe make you cry, and teach you things about life and God and yourself you hadn’t known before. They will become your friends just as they are mine.
So my wife Judy and I welcome you to our home and our world. Join us for a cup of tea and a quiet few minutes with a good book in your lap. Meet our friends!
Come be part of this world where I live and write every day. I am probably at work right now getting to know new friends that I hope you will meet one day after I have learned a little more about them.
