Faithchick Rene Gutteridge

Rene Gutteridge was an award-winning screenwriter before becoming a novelist. Her latest novel, Skid, which lets the reader “Come Fly The Frenzied Skies!”, is from her Occupational Hazards series. She’s also the author of the popular Boo series including: Boo, Boo Who, Boo Hiss, and Boo Humbug.

What will the reader remember the most about her books? Rene thinks it depends on the reader’s journey. We all bring our own experiences into the novel, and we all take away different things. She hopes each reader finds her stories unforgettable, meaningful, and fun.

Book Club Alert: Rene wants to join in the fun at your book club by conference call. Imagine having access to the author herself as you discuss her novel. You can bring Rene to your group by using the contact information on her website.

Rene was pleased to be a part of a major motion picture when she was asked to write the novelization of the movie The Ultimate Gift.

What does a writer do when her characters won’t obey her? Write a popular series called the Boo Series. When Rene’s wacky characters got totally out of control, she let them have their way. And one story formed after another. The following is a portion of a review of Boo by www.ChristianFictionReview.com. Boo “reads like a good old-fashioned Frank Capra film. Rene Gutteridge has filled the town of Skary with the wackiest and lovable ensemble cast I’ve read about in a long, long time.”

Known for writing humor amazingly well, Rene has written 14 novels for several major Christian publishing houses. Never the Bride: A Novel is her next release, due in bookstores in June 2009.
