Deakon Reeves
Biography
The name’s Deakon-
… ‘Deakon Reeves.’
I write Post-Apocalyptic, Dystopian Fiction, and I do it clean.
Not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved ~ (tipping my hat to (John 3:17).
So never mind that I am a persona. I’d dare say that some of your favorite people are ‘less-than-real.’ Characters in a story … Author pen names … your dream man or dream woman … and even your secret self.
So come on along. The air is clean here, the lighting is good, and you’re going to like what you find.
And Don't miss out on getting your FREE copy of the Prequel to my Revival Team Series (See how it all began). Get it Now at: https://elkleafpublishing.com
But Why The Persona?
As a Christian Author, I became aware - early on - that I had a 'propensity towards pride' (try saying that three times fast). :)
So in order to remain true to my commitment to the Lord, and His will, I decided that it might be better if I didn't plaster my image, or my name, all across social media (and honestly, I don't take good pictures, anyway).
There are images of us everywhere in our world today and I simply wanted to portray less of 'me' and more of 'Him.'
So now you know. I'm not 'hiding' ... I'm just 'abiding.' And I hope you'll see that commitment reflected in my work.

Appointed by the first President of the New Republic of Texas (though off the books) a retired Texas Ranger has successfully protected an upstart group of missionaries who work the wastelands of Old America. The job wasn't easy and it's only going to get worse. But fortunately he knows just where to find help. Men like himself, God-honoring old comrades in arms—able and willing "So into the Fire."

In the near future, in the depraved wastelands of America, a corrupt conman and false prophet seizes a church in the heartland. He's a deceiver and not afraid to use his personal security force (who he calls 'Ushers') should anyone oppose him. And then, there's always the local band of marauders to be hired. Enter, a group of radical missionaries whose aim is to set things right—and bring revival.

With Revival Teams growing in broken America, a need is discovered and so a new kind of team emerges. Those who struggle behind the scenes to provide for the fighters on the front lines. But nowhere is safe in Old America's wastelands. Not in the cities and not along the supply routes. But as members of the body they press on. Knowing their work is crucial...because all God's people have purpose.
