*We are currently experiencing inexplicable and deeply frustrating delays on the hardback edition with our publisher, Barnes & Noble Press. Weeks have passed and countless inquiries made, and we still haven't gotten a straight answer about why they refuse to clear the hardback for publication. RobinParrish.com will make available the hardback edition as soon as they make that possible for us.

If you don't understand what something means or why it's in the book, see "The Story of Infusions of Faith" below.
When I first conceived of this book, it was primarily a compilation of the encouragements and stories and devotionals that I wrote in my newsletters years ago. But as I plunged into those surprisingly timeless words, my wild imagination took over, and I found myself dreaming bigger and bigger...
Infusions of Faith is the result. So named because most of the newsletters came from my time at Infuze Magazine, a unique publication that existed "at the corner of Art and Faith."
1. THAT WAS THEN
2. THIS IS OW
I quickly realized that I wanted to update many of them. Time offers new perspectives, and I've learned and changed a great deal over the last 20 years.
So I've made additions, amendments, continuations, and (hopefully) shared the kind of wisdom that only time can bring.
3. VERSES
I decided to include Bible verses, carefully chosen from dozens of translations, that would speak to, uplift, and encourage people where they are. I enlisted dozens of family members, who helped me with what became over 220 passages. Each verse is uniquely formatted and placed within a rich, vibrant image for a combination guaranteed to soothe the soul.
4. IMAGERY
I wanted a stunning photograph to go with each Bible verse, but found myself continually frustrated that the images available to me never suited my needs. So I turned to Adobe Firefly, an A.I. image generator.
I know, I know. I have massive reservations about A.I.-generated art, too. But Firefly sources its assets from public domain and ethically-paid sources.
And the results speak for themselves: eye-popping visuals that look 100% real, many of them based on real locations (using photos from those locations), but pieced together in ways that allowed me to control the angles, the lighting, the composition, even the camera lenses.
5. BNUS
Then I thought, why stop at old newsletters? I've written other nonfiction works over the years which have never been published. (At least not in this fashion.) So a Bonus section at the back of the book holds additional material that's deeply personal to me. I'd tell you more, but it's too meaningful to spoil with a trifling blurb here.
These treasures await discovery within.

6. GREATER THAN THE SUM
The more that Infusions of Faith came together, it took on a quality akin to taking a road trip. A journey through life--my life, to be precise. Every entry stands alone, yet together they form a kind of... memoir, believe it or not.
So what IS Infusions of Faith?
Is it collection of essays and encouragements and devotionals?
A unique personal memoir?
A gorgeous photo book--without any actual photos?
Maybe it's all three, or maybe it's something else entirely. Perhaps when you crack it open, you'll decide for yourself.

about
ROBIN PARRISH
Robin Parrish is the author of more than a dozen novels across multiple genres, including Nightmare, Offworld, Vigilante, Corridor, the Dominion Trilogy, and his exciting new series The Riftwalkers. He lives in High Point, North Carolina with his wife and two teenagers.
Storytelling is Robin's greatest passion, but he pursues many other passions and interests as well. Martial Arts nears the top of the list; he's soon to be a 3rd Degree Black Belt in Hapkido.
He collects lost and unusual words, but instead of writing them in a journal, he draws them. He posts many of them online on Instagram and DeviantArt.
An avid fan of superheroes, Star Wars, science fiction, fantasy, he loves watching and debating any and all of the above. And as an unashamed Spider-Man fanatic, he leaps at any opportunity to cosplay as the web-slinging superhero.
Robin is also (or pretends to be) a craftsman who'll work with any medium available--wood, leather, paper, metal, fabric, cardboard, plastic, clay, foam, glass, wax, resin... If you can make something creative out of it, he's probably tried it.
