Authors on the Air Global Radio Network

Thirty full years after Kentucky author Tammy Oberhausen started writing her first novel, THE EVOLUTION OF THE GOSPELETTES is finally in print. Oberhausen’s debut novel was published on November 5th by Fireside Industries, an imprint of the University Press of Kentucky which is run by none other than Kentucky Poet Laureate and New York Times bestseller Silas House. Spanning thirty years from the ‘70s through the millennium, THE EVOLUTION OF THE GOSPELETTES tells the story of an 18-year-old Kentuckian named Jeannie Holliman whose father refuses to let her go to college on a music scholarship but instead decides her destiny is to be the center of his new family gospel group. In the beginning, Jeannie believes her family is doing the work of God, but as the years pass, she starts to question the motives of those around her and wonders how she can save her family from being destroyed by people driven by greed and power. Oberhausen visits Authors on the Air to talk about what it’s like to work towards this goal for three decades, how it feels to have finally achieved this goal, and what advice she has for other authors fighting for publication. This is a must listen for all aspiring authors and anyone who wants to be inspired by an author who never gave up.
