Bestselling author Jody Sharpe, winner of the 2023 and 2024 National Association of Press Women's Communications Contest Awards for Fiction, has issued a call for angel stories to be featured on her new YouTube channel and possibly in her next book. The stories can be submitted at https://jodysharpe.com. Not all submissions will be accepted, but those selected will be shared on her YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zFlB6SCAJg&t=14s and may be woven into her upcoming novella, a prequel to the Mystic Bay series.
Sharpe, who has collected angel stories for years—both personal and from others—often incorporates them into her books. Her latest release, New Angel In Town, is built around such accounts. In the novel, set in the fictional town of Mystic Bay, California, where angels live as humans, a new guardian angel named Ron arrives to ensure his charge, a foster child named Evan, finds a forever home. Meanwhile, writer Noah Greenstreet works on a film showcasing the townsfolk's angel encounters. The story explores themes of love, goodwill, and the triumph of kindness over bullying. Readers have praised the book, with one Amazon reviewer calling it "a masterclass in child advocacy, true love, & angel-ology."
Sharpe's initiative highlights the growing interest in angelic experiences and their power to inspire. Her "Tuesdays With The Angels" blog section, at http://www.jodysharpe.com, already shares real-life angel encounters. The new YouTube channel will expand this reach, offering video segments on angel stories, bullying prevention, and special needs advocacy—topics close to Sharpe's heart, given her background as a special education teacher. The call for submissions invites anyone to share sightings, interactions, or miraculous encounters, with the understanding that inclusion is not guaranteed.
Sharpe's Mystic Bay series includes titles such as To Catch an Angel, Town Of Angels, and The Dog Who Came For Christmas, all of which blend fiction with themes of angelic intervention and human resilience. Her work has earned her recognition as one of the "50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading" and two screen treatment adaptations for The Angel's Daughter and Town Of Angels Christmas. Sharpe, who turned to writing about angels after personal losses, aims to provide comfort and inspiration through her stories. The upcoming prequel will continue this mission, incorporating new submissions alongside her own experiences.
Interested individuals can submit their angel stories at http://bit.ly/2FV8amd. All submissions will be reviewed, and selected stories may appear on Sharpe's YouTube channel and in her next book, further spreading the message that angels are always at the helm.
