A summary of some of what, Vivian Fuller Love of, VLF MEDIA PROMOTIONS in a release for promotion wrote about, Lueretha: she states the following :
" Lueretha , who became serious about her writing in 1999, began her career like many other great novelist. She wrote from inspiration from God. Most of her writing was done on the spur of the moment; as the thoughts came to her she had to put them on paper immediately. So her writing was done when riding along in the car when stopped at a light writing things down, in church as thoughts came, walking along on the walking trail, at gatherings, many places. Then she compiled these writings in to form into books. She is the kind of writer who is an on the go writer.
