Video Interview ~ Missy Tippens

Wednesday, May 18, 2011

Missy Tippens lives in Georgia with her wonderful, supportive, pastor husband (her very own real life hero even though he's not too handy around the house). They have three perfect children. Well, maybe not perfect, but they're loving and fun and are God's greatest blessings. To add chaos to the household, they have two dogs and a cat.


Missy was a stay-at-home mom for 16 years, writing for about 10 of those years. She owns a home-based business that she works a couple of hours a week, and for the last two years, she taught an Anatomy & Physiology course at a local technical college. Teaching was fun, challenging, and very rewarding. She truly loved it and feels blessed to have had the chance to discover that fact. However, she recently decided to write full time. Writing is her passion. And, she hopes, her ministry. She truly believe God has given her stories. And from the wonderful emails and letters she's received from readers, it has amazed and blessed her to hear how He has used them.

Her latest book, A Family for Faith, released in April 2011, from Love Inspired.





Missy is giving away a copy of her book A Family for Faith. Be sure to stop by The Borrowed Book on Friday for your chance to win.

What a neat idea for an interview! Loved getting to 'meet' Missy and hearing that gorgeous accent! I've read A Family for Faith and loved it.

Missy Tippens said...

Thanks for stopping by, Kav!! And thanks for watching. You know, I can hardly stand to watch it myself. Can't stand to hear myself talk! LOL (Do others feel the same way? I never have liked hearing myself on the answering machine. haha)

Also...I wish I could show some of the deleted takes. Oh, my. Hilarious! Once I proudly held my book upside down. That was the best one. :) And still, the one I saved shows I couldn't remember the title for a split second. :)

Missy, this has made me so lonely for you!!! Lonely for Elizabeth, too.
Great interview.

Tina Radcliffe said...

That was so much fun!!! I totally grinned the whole time. I sooo miss you!!!!

Great, great, interview! I want a southern accent.

Missy Tippens said...

Thanks, Mary and Tina. I miss you, too!!

You know, it's funny. When I listened to myself on this interview, I thought I talked without an accent! LOL

I also recently went to the Southern Kentucky Book Fest in my hometown. My college roommate made fun of how I get more and more accent the longer I'm in Georgia. :)

Elizabeth Ludwig said...

Had so much fun putting this together, Missy. Thanks so much for appearing on The Borrowed Book!

Elizabeth Ludwig said...

And yes, you have an accent. But then again, I've been told I do, too. LOL!

Missy Tippens said...

Yes, you do! :)

Sandra Robbins said...

Well, I'm glad I don't have an accent!! (I can hear Lisa laughing now.)

Seriously, Missy, it was great hearing more about your book. You did a terrific job on your first video interview.

Missy Tippens said...

Thanks, Sandra! And I do believe I remember you having a slight accent. :)
