By the time Thursday is over, Annie Lee is convinced God is telling her it’s her last day on earth.
Annie and her husband live in a small rural town in central Washington state—a place where almost nothing scary happens . . . until today. Hang on to her coattails as she navigates her tragic past, her frightening present, and her unknown future all in the space of twenty-four hours.
And ask yourself the same question posed to Annie: “What would I do today if I knew I’d die tomorrow?” Will your answer be the same one Annie discovers?

More from Deb
No Tomorrows-A Novel for Today came about because of a question I heard.
“What would you do today if you knew without a doubt you would die tomorrow?”
It’s an old question that’s been kicked around for decades, but when I seriously put my shoes into its footprints, I found I could not answer it with anything other than cliches. Those cliches, like “Eat chocolate all day”, or “Do that last thing on your bucket list” didn’t sit well with me. I wanted a real answer, one I could hang my hat on—as one character in the book says. I suspected that my readers want a real answer for themselves, too.
Annie Lee, a typical suburban mother of four, is confronted with that question, and spends a harrowing twenty-four hours navigating the answer for herself. In the uncertainty of our times, this question is particularly important for us to consider. Perhaps we’ll agree with Annie Lee’s answer.
Along with a book and a $50.00 Amazon card, the lucky winner will receive a custom-made No Tomorrows pen, created by my author friend, Steve Hooley, at https://SteveHooleyWriter.com, from Big Leaf Maple wood grown and harvested in the Pacific Northwest.
My Interview
What inspired you to start writing? And, how long have you been writing?
I wrote a play and directed it at our church in 2013. That is what whetted my appetite for becoming an author. So, I’ve been writing since then, but have been an author since 2016. I released three creative non-fiction books between 2016 and 2018, and then in 2022 that play written a decade prior became my first novel—The Master’s Inn.
What advice would you give a new writer or someone just starting out?
Oooh . . . let’s see. Don’t give up. Write what scares you. Study the craft. Hire the professional to do what you can’t. For me, that’s editing and cover design. Oh, and don’t give up!
How many books have you written? Which is your favorite?
I have written five books (with another due to release this year) and have been published in Chicken Soup for the Soul, and recently had a story accepted by Guideposts—not sure of the publish date on that.
Can you share a snippet that isn’t in the blurb or excerpt?
“I don’t know, Annie,” he whispered in that silky smooth voice, the same voice he used when he presided over a funeral. “But here’s the thing. Death doesn’t end life. Never has.”
What do you hope your readers take away from this book?
Ben Franklin said it best, and it’s used in the front of the book. “One today is worth two tomorrows.” Timeless truth, isn’t it?
