A MORE PERSONAL BIOGRAPHY
I’m often asked if I always wanted to be a writer. The answer is, no, I didn’t, although I loved books and stories even before I could read. In fact, I went to my first day of first grade with only one goal in mind — learn to read. When they didn’t teach me how that very first day, I told my mom there was no point in going back. Fortunately, my mom knew who was boss, and I did go back to school.
When I was young, what I wanted to be most in all the world was a movie star. I’m sure my closest friends all nod their heads when I say this, knowing my theatrical nature. I took ballet for seven years, and I was in various theater productions, both in school and as a young adult.
My storytelling career began in grade school when I told my fifth grade friends that my mother was born in a covered wagon while coming west on the Oregon Trail. It seemed plausible. My mother was, after all, 47 years old at the time. My word! Had they even invented the wheel when she was born? (Mom lived to be 96, so I had plenty of time to realize how young she was at 47!)
Fast forward to high school. I was a compulsive writer, scribbling stories and poetry in notebooks and on binders. This wasn’t work. This was fun! Writing could transport me to any place, any time. How cool. I am also a lover of horses and bought my first horse when I was fifteen. I spent many years thereafter riding, competing, and raising them.
Marriage and family filled the decade of my twenties. I read voraciously. I daydreamed. In my mind, I reworked the endings of both movies and books any time they didn’t suit me. I performed with a Christian theater troupe. Then I got an idea for a story, a Gone With The Wind type saga. I talked about it with others for about six months. Finally, I sat down and began to write. I wrote long hand on yellow legal pads and typed the pages on the office Selectric typewriter during lunch hours and coffee breaks. Nine months later, I had a book, and a little over two years after that, it was published.
The rest, as they say, is history. After nine years of writing whenever I could find a spare moment, I quit my day job the month my ninth novel was released in order to write full time and have been at it ever since. These days, the nest is empty. My daughters are grown with families of their own.
Life isn’t always easy, but God is always good.
I am blessed, indeed.

REVIEW
This is a story of love, heartbreak and redemption. Author, Robin Hatcher's, A PROMISE KEPT, is her latest story which is an Award -winning book.
I believe this was a look inside the author, herself. I find that that may have been terribly hard to do.Ms. Hatcher includes part of her own experience with divorce. You can't get any more realistic than that. This story is not where everyone lived happily ever after. I thought of my own divorce and how it was so different than Ms. Hatcher's. She is a strong woman to write such a personal thing.
The author wrote a fast paced, well written, well described book The topics that the reader travels through are not light, easy ones. They are quite the opposite. They are heavy topics, but the way Ms. Hatcher wrote in the troubling topics of divorce and alcoholism made you think. They didn't make your soul feel heavy. It was just trying to understand how they affected the characters.
I liked both the past, Emma's story and the present, Allison's story. I believe I like the past a little better. I felt Ms. Hatcher was part of both of them and in turn making that connection to the reader.
I found that between the past, Emma and the present, Allison both women trusted in God and followed his words, only to find out that sometimes he has a different plan for us than what we may want.
Even though at times we think we are alone, we aren't. All we have to do is talk to God and tell him our worries and then listen, really listen to him.
I rated this book 4 Rosettes.
