Interview with Author DIXIE PHILLIPS

Dixie, what inspired you to write "Stubby's Destiny?"
My husband and I have been in fulltime ministry for nearly thirty years. We have a special love for children. After seeing so many precious little ones, who came from difficult circumstances, question whether they were “born wrong” and also question whether God could use them because they didn’t have a godly heritage, I wanted to write a book of hope. I sat down one day and “Stubby’s Destiny” was born.

What would you like children to come away with after they read your book? I want them to know that it doesn’t matter how you start this life, but how you finish that makes all the difference.

What kind of stories do you think children need the most? We live in a society of “dysfunctional orphans”. Many are being raised by someone other than their parents. They may not live in orphanages, and many have been left to fin for themselves. This neglect and rejection leaves big holes in their souls and sends them looking for love in all the wrong places. I think children need more inspirational stories filled with hope. They need to know that their lives are precious to their Heavenly Father and that He will be the Father they have always wanted.

Dixie, you write for adults and for children. Which type of writing do you find the most challenging, and which do you find the most fun? I’m ministry-minded to a fault and probably need to take some classes on setting “boundaries” in life, but I really enjoy writing inspirational stories for both adults and children.

Where do you find inspiration for your stories?
God blessed me with two of the most wonderful grandmothers in the whole world. My mother’s mother had such a love for poor children. When I was just a little girl, she gave me a sample, a living example of compassion. She took me with her to nursing homes and her kitchen was a soup kitchen for anyone who needed a meal. She has been gone for eight years, but even though she’s dead - her life resonates in my soul.
