God took her by one hand and Joylynn Jossel by the other hand and they walked Brandi down a road that ended with a book deal.

Brandi has since written the novel "

I was unquestionably inspired and two months after graduation I began writing my first novel, Secret Society. Three months later I had a complete manuscript and was ready to move on to the next step
