Kathie has written and published several books. From small ebooks that relate to working from home and being a Virtual Assistant through to novels about being “Worth More Than Rubies” and another called “It Happened By Design“, both of which grew out of blogs she writes. As a keen nature photographer she later wrote two books about birds in the region in which she lives: ‘Words on Birds: Feathered Friends of the Dandenongs‘ books 1 and 2. Originally written for her grandchildren they are available to the public for purchase.
Interview at Faithwriters.com: There is little that FaithWriters member, Kathie Thomas hasn’t done. Besides being an accomplished writer and published author, she’s won or been nominated for many awards, most recently the 2009 Australian of the Year award. She has impacted the home-business world and maintains several blogs. In a nutshell, she’s done it all!
Join interviewer, Lynda Schab, as she talks with Kathie about her Christian testimony, her family, and all of her impressive accomplishments.
LYNDA SCHAB: Start by telling us about yourself and give us a brief Christian testimony.
KATHIE THOMAS: I was brought up in a non-Christian home, although mum and dad did take us (my 2 sisters, brother and me) to church when we were young. But they didn’t stay at church and would have us walk home or come back and get us. I think probably it was the only 2 hours a week they had alone together without 4 young children. I was the eldest. To this day mum and dad still do not know the Lord and this saddens me. They are very aware of my faith and mum has read one of my books and many Christian fictional stories (like the Left Behind series) but still nothing – at least not that I’m aware of. Read the rest here.
