Cynthia-RuchtiWorthy Publishing has announced that it has signed author Cynthia Ruchti to write its first Christmas novella. Ruchti is the author of the award-winning titles Where the Morning Glory Blooms and, most recently, All My Belongings. 

Ruchti’s honors include awards for both When the Morning Glory Blooms and Ragged Hope: Surviving the Fallout of Other People’s Choices at the International Christian Retailers Show. When the Morning Glory Blooms earned Christian Retailing’s Best award for fiction, and Ragged Hope won Christian Retailing’s Best award for nonfiction. 

“Cynthia’s characters stay with you long after you finish her books. I am thrilled that her first Christmas novella is also the first to be released by Worthy Inspired. She is a wonderful addition to our house of authors,” said Pamela Clements, vice president and associate publisher for Worthy Inspired.

Ruchti’s Endless Christmas novella with Worthy Publishing (December 2015) tells the story of a dating couple who both plan to spend Christmas with the young man’s grandparents. On the way, he proposes, and much to his surprise, his girlfriend says no, forcing them to find a way to get through the holiday with his family.

Endless Christmas celebrates love, family, life and what happens when people realize what is most important.
