Gallipolis - Christian mystery author and Gallipolis resident, Paula F. Blevins, has become a part of world history.
She and 152 other Publish America authors joined together for a giant book signing in the publisher's hometown of Frederick, MD, Feb. 29. Their names have now gone down in the Guinness Book of World Records for the most authors at a book signing.
The authors, who came from across the United States and from England, met for the weekend conference with several seminars led by authors, an informative and entertaining tour of historic Gettysburg, and the record setting book signing on Sunday at the Frederick Towne Mall.
Blevins signed and sold copies of her first two books of The For Hymn Mystery Series. These books are so named because each edition in the four part series is divided into sections by the verses of a popular hymn. Book I, The Way Home, has "Amazing Grace" as its basis, whereas, Book II, Come to Me, uses the hymn "Stand By Me."
The inspirational mystery, The Way Home, is set in Columbus with the main character, Elizabeth Perkins (Lizzie), about to be married. Throughout the novel, Elizabeth works to figure out the meaning of her recurrent dreams about her father's death and their possible connection to her fiance's accidents before the fast-approaching wedding.
In Come to Me, the second book of the series, Lizzies' college roommate and maid of honor, Eryka Skidmore, must uncover the secret behind her boss' disappearance before it's too late to save the company and possibly herself. This story takes place in Tennessee with side trips into Corbin, KY.
Blevins, who is originally from Pataskala, OH, resides in Gallipolis with her husband, David, and their three children.
Her books are sold at the Alcove, Summer Image tannin salon and McClure's in Gallipolis. They can also be purchased online at any of the major companies such as Amazon, Barnes and NOble, or Book A Million.
