Author Biography

Inspired by everyday miracles, L.R. Trovillion weaves magical stories of hurting people who find hope through horses in her Maryland Equestrian Novel series. Although she earned a degree in Russian and spent a career in government service, her real love has been caring for and working with horses. That love shines through in her series, focusing on the healing power of horses in the lives of teens facing complex and sometimes dangerous family situations. Believing there is more to this world than meets the eye, she adds a dash of the supernatural to each story. L. R. Trovillion lives on a small horse farm in Maryland with her husband, daughter, and several animals that really run the place. Her other works have appeared in Baltimore magazine, Chicken Soup for the Soul, and various poetry anthologies.

Does God Let Crappy Things Happen?

I'm sure a lot of people at some time in their lives have asked why bad things happen to good people or why, if God is all powerful, does he allow disaster to happen. During this time of global crisis, fear, and anxiety I think we turn more and more to the writings of people all through the ages for answers. And not just scholarly papers and non-fiction works, but novels, poetry, and literature often reveal answers to these thorny questions in life. On this National Book Day in the very unsettling year of 2020, rediscover the wisdom between the cover of books. Search for answers, empathy, human triumph, facts, or whatever restores hope and brings you solace.

Book Excerpt

Dream Horse

Dear God,

This is Cory Iverson, but I guess you know that already.

First off, let’s get this straight. I don’t believe in you.

I’m writing this because today has been the worst day ever, and I hear people say when God shuts a door, he opens a window somewhere else. Well, you’ve slammed all the doors in my face, so I’m ready to crawl out a window. Out onto a ledge, maybe.

If I did believe in you, God, I would ask you this: if you’re everywhere and all powerful, why is it you just stand around and let crappy things happen?
