When her novelist ex-fianceÌ, Eric, and his venture capitalist brother, Mark, offer her a job directing a low-residency school for Christian writers at a motel they've inherited on Florida's Gulf Coast, she can't come up with a reason to say no. The Genesis Inspirational Writing Ranch is born, and liberal, atheist Marianne is soon knee-deep in applications from writers whose political and religious beliefs she has always opposed but whose money she's glad to take. Janine is a schoolteacher whose heartfelt poems explore the final days of Terri Schiavo's life. Davonte is a former R&B superstar who hopes to reboot his career with a bestselling tale of excess and redemption. Lorraine and Tom, eccentric writers in need of paying jobs, join the Ranch as instructors. 650 0 $a Women teachers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Authors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Writers' retreats $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Christians $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Culture conflict $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Friendship $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Hurricanes $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Gulf Coast (Fla.) $v Fiction. 941 $a 5 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305015531.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722061522.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200529015803.0 952 $l EXPC755 $d 20190706010450.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20190604034444.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4DAB570E658D11E99B4892F996128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
