Today we’re continuing our Featured Fiction Friday series, and celebrating one of the authors that helped make the our contest possible. Introducing Richard L. Mabry, MD!

Q: Richard L. Mabry, MD, can you tell us a little bit about your new book?

Overcoming these odds would take more than a miracle drug—it would take a miracle.

The infection wasn’t supposed to happen, but it did. The treatment was supposed to take care of it, but it didn’t. Dr. Josh Pearson believes an experimental drug not yet approved by the FDA may be the antidote. But there’s only one dose available for two patients: the former president of the United States… and Josh’s fiancé.

With the nation’s eyes on him, Josh must pull off a miracle to save a man who holds a good deal of power and the woman who holds his heart.

Q: Do you have any writing advice for the MBT Audience?

Writers must be readers. Read the good stuff so you’ll know what works. Read the bad stuff, so you’ll know what to avoid.
Never be afraid to ask someone knowledgeable to read your work. After they do, don’t pout if they suggest ways to improve it. Always strive to make it even better the next time.
