About the Author

Deb Gorman, owner of Debo Publishing, was born and raised in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. She still lives in her hometown of Yakima, Washington, with her husband, Alan, and their very smart German Shepherd, Hoka. Deb is a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ, cleverly disguised as a wife, mom, grandmom, and author. Her purpose is to connect with God’s most beautiful and clever creation, the human family, using the literary talent and imagination God gave her. Her prayer is that as she journeys with you, together you will discover encouragement and redemption in your most important relationships.


More from Deb

No Tomorrows-A Novel for Today came about because of a question I heard.

“What would you do today if you knew without a doubt you would die tomorrow?”

It’s an old question that’s been kicked around for decades, but when I seriously put my shoes into its footprints, I found I could not answer it with anything other than cliches. Those cliches, like “Eat chocolate all day”, or “Do that last thing on your bucket list” didn’t sit well with me. I wanted a real answer, one I could hang my hat on—as one character in the book says. I suspected that my readers want a real answer for themselves, too.

Annie Lee, a typical suburban mother of four, is confronted with that question, and spends a harrowing twenty-four hours navigating the answer for herself. In the uncertainty of our times, this question is particularly important for us to consider. Perhaps we’ll agree with Annie Lee’s answer.

Along with a book and a $50.00 Amazon card, the lucky winner will receive a custom-made No Tomorrows pen, created by my author friend, Steve Hooley, at https://SteveHooleyWriter.com, from Big Leaf Maple wood grown and harvested in the Pacific Northwest.

MY REVIEW 

The book asks a very difficult question that made me wonder how I would answer it. A simple assignment from a teacher takes a family on an uncertain journey of discovering what is important. I loved reading how Annie faces several trials leading up to facing that all important question her daughter has to write about. We get to know Annie better as her everyday life plays out. She likes everything in its place. Her children feel her anxiety when she doesn’t allow them to just have fun. Her insecurity and mistrust flows into her life that threatens the very existence of her family. 

I could relate to her about worrying over her children. I was that mom who was so afraid that one of my children would get hurt I didn’t allow them to have fun. Annie learns that she needs to let go and trust God. Fears can take over our life if we don’t let them go. They can put us in a state of not really living and  becoming isolated from everyone. 

Take each day like it may be your last. Live it to the fullest and put God first in everything. We are not promised tomorrow so take each day and make memories. Abbie realizes all the time she has wasted by worrying about everything that now she wants to make amends for it to her family. 

The story is a beautiful reminder to take each day as it comes. We need to give our worries to God. Live in the moment and give your cares to God. I loved this book and it made me think of how I would answer that question posed in the book. Now it’s your time readers . Take a journey with Annie and let things that have stopped you from enjoying  life  go. 

I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion.
