Discover the Next Generation of Christian Storytellers…

This third edition of Voices of the Future weaves together short stories of healing and home in a memorable and heartwarming collection. Experience the next generation’s creativity and vision through tales from rising young creatives.

Featuring Lyric Rose

Lyric Rose grew up in classical education, and has spent her whole life obsessed with mythology and classics. Today, she strives for the same depth and wonder she grew up with. She writes adult and YA fiction that exposes the dark realities of life while still valuing hope and joy. She loves crafting characters readers can connect to and stories they can get lost in. When not writing, Lyric spends time exploring her worlds through art or curling up to read a good comic or fan fiction.
