Renee` McCoy, formerly Renee` Allen, I am a Christian first and an author second. I believe in the importance of inspirational work from all forms of art. I voice my belief in God and savior, Jesus Christ, and know that, "The only way you fail is if you stop trying to succeed."

Get an inside look at my debut novel, The Kiss of Judas, the highly anticipated sequel Confessions, details of my third novel, The Eleventh Hour, and the archives of my newsletter entitled Straight Up!

 

In September 2009, I launched my blog, In His Name. Several months leading up to the birth of this blog, I kept feeling like I was supposed to share my daily devotions with others. I remember telling my husband this, for the second or third time, about a couple of weeks before it hit me. I was instructed and I obeyed. I know that it was God because I would never have committed to doing this every day when I still have a novel to finish. But as we all know, it was never about us.
