About "Leaping Out on Faith":
“Leaping Out on Faith” is a collection of short stories about four women at different stages of their lives and the decisions they make.
Depending upon their age, the women choose vastly different paths. Some of those paths are reasonable. Some? Not so much. Yet each story represents a truth for a woman in that moment that rings true emotionally.
Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the inspiration to write "Leaping Out on Faith"?
Rochelle Campbell: Inspiration came in dribs and drabs over approximately 15 years. The first story in this book was written during my last year in high school, and the last story was written a couple of years ago.
JP: What sets "Leaping Out on Faith" apart from other books in the same genre?
RC: “Leaping Out on Faith” is different because these short stories showcase the experiences of women from different backgrounds and lifestyles.
These stories are diverse, interesting, compelling in their voice. All of them take you on a ride and bring you back safely to your life but with new ideas to contemplate. (read more)
JP: As an author, what are the keys to your success that led to "Leaping Out on Faith" getting out to the public?
RC: However, the main key that “Leaping Out on Faith” was published was the point at which I became tired of giving myself the same old tired excuses of I’m submitting and waiting for a response from XYZ. (read more)
JP: As an author, what is your writing process? How long did it take you to start and finish "Leaping Out on Faith"?
RC: Generally, my process is to create a 6-point outline that gives the milestones of the book. I create a rough sketch of the characters and their motivations (and their names!), and I begin writing following this loose map. (read more)
JP: What’s next for Rochelle Campbell?
RC: Currently, I am editing a full-length supernatural cop thriller. It took me 4 months to write it, and it’s taking much more to edit! LOL. (read more)
