Here is David's Bio -
David cites a trio of variables which spice up his fiction. His dad, Pastor Ken Smith, had a three-year gig playing the comic role of Waldo in the old Our Gang film series. David possesses just enough Venden DNA (his mom, Jean, is cousin to Lou and Morrie) to occasionally accept preaching assignments or academy chapel talks. And along with his three brothers, he spent thirteen years as a missionary kid in Bangkok and put in two school terms writing the irreverent humor column for FEA’s student newspaper Ripples. He admits, “My brother Dan was the editor and spent most of his tenure apologizing about me.”

Sandwiched in between his years as a math professor, David also logged over a decade as the Voice of Prophecy’s main scriptwriter for the Adventist Church’s official daily broadcast. He credits those fast-paced deadlines with helping him develop a knack for finding that elusive story twist that might intrigue a secular audience. Now, in writing Christian fiction, he cites a quote by favorite author C. S. Lewis, who once suggested: “We must attack the enemy’s lines of communication. What we want is not more little books about Christianity, but more little books by Christians on other subjects – with their Christianity latent.”

The Rachel Marie series of books is set in David’s childhood home, where Rachel Marie and a growing cast of characters work and witness at Bangkok Christian School. He describes these as adult love stories where relationships are healed; the plot lines are infused with Asia’s risqué culture and a thoughtfully evangelical mind-set.
