In this episode of the Authority On Demand Podcast (formerly Authors On Mission Podcast), host Danielle Hutchinson sits down with debut novelist Kerri Tracht to explore her inspiring writing journey and the faith-forward themes behind The Long Way at Home.

Kerri shares how a childhood teacher’s encouragement planted the seed for her writing career, why she chose a father-daughter road trip to explore forgiveness and grace, and how faith quietly shapes her storytelling. She also opens up about starting her professional writing later in life, proving it’s never too late to pursue your calling.

Listeners will discover:

Why seeing parents as imperfect people opens the door to healing.
How unforgiveness can ripple into adulthood—and how grace can break the cycle.
Tips for writers: build community, seek professional editors, and use beta readers.
Why daily writing and continuous learning are essential for growth.
