I'd like to get a copy of the book you mention above- sounds very interesting. <br /><br />For writing, a great site to check out is www.faithwriters.com - I've gotten some cool opportunities through there. It's a huge resource and community of Christian writers.<br /><br />I like how you make the distinction between writing and communicating/instructing (teaching?) and see writing as one of perhaps many tools you can use. I think you're *write* on target with that idea.Beth Coultonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17725084047646351485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6071923761436968359.post-53691819762421742262012-06-09T10:25:34.304-04:002012-06-09T10:25:34.304-04:00I'm intrigued by this challenge that you'v...I'm intrigued by this challenge that you've taken on! I, too have been sensing God's promptings to write. I've done some, but I don't think that I've really thought about it as a craft to be honed, but rather a message to deliver. <br /><br />I have, however, picked up a book called "Getting the Words Right" (or something close to that title). It's about editing your own writing... Very helpful and practical. <br /><br />Of course, that's not what this challenge is about; it seems to be more about simply doing--or more accurately, *being.* It's about how you see yourself... about *attitude.*<br /><br />Do you see yourself as a fish? Then swim!<br /><br />Are you a bird? Fly!<br /><br />A writer? Well, do what writers do. <br /><br />I'm not sure I'm there yet... maybe more of a "communicator" or an "instructor"... and perhaps writing is one of the tools in my box. <br /><br />And that begs the question: "Am I doing what a communicator/instructor does?"<br /><br />Some of this challenge is rubbing off on me... thanks for sharing it with us!<br /><br />DavidDavidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16574887477471407857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6071923761436968359.post-47407981165032764582012-06-09T07:48:43.479-04:002012-06-09T07:48:43.479-04:00I'm so glad you're taking the challenge to...I'm so glad you're taking the challenge too!
