Faith Marlowe
Stories about the ordinary rooms where God shows up.
I write the way I’d rather pray — plainly, and without skipping the parts that don’t resolve.
Faith Marlowe is a pen name for a writer who believes doubt belongs inside faith rather than outside it, that grief and belief can share a kitchen table, and that most people’s real theology gets worked out in ordinary rooms — kitchens, gardens, porches — rather than in the ones built for arguing about it.
Her debut novel, The Second Shore, is Book One of the Shore Series. It follows a woman sorting out her late grandmother’s coastal house — and, unexpectedly, forty years of the woman’s unsent letters to God. The next book in the series, The First Shore, is a prequel currently underway.
The Second Shore
Book One of the Shore Series. A woman returns to close up her late grandmother’s coastal house — and finds a locked box of forty years of unsent letters to God. A novel about grief, doubt, and staying at the table anyway.
