Susan Panzica will maneuver us through The Christian Writers' Guide.
- Learn what those mysterious symbols & abbreviations mean.
- Search for a potential market for the piece you've been writing - you will be asked to share this with the group
- Bring paper for notes or be willing to write in your market guide (Copies of previous Market Guides will be available to borrow if you don't own one.)
See details at right for location and time.
Thoughts from January's meeting
“In the
beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” So reads Genesis 1:1. God spoke the word and the
world came into being - day & night, land & sea, plants & trees, sun
& moon, fish, birds & animals. Within each created thing was all that was necessary to sustain and/or multiply it.
Talk about words being “pregnant” with meaning!
Being created in
God's image, our noblest desires mirror His. As writers we want
our words to go beyond their structure and definition to import truth and life and hope and beauty and sustenance.
We
write from a desire to create - to express, to expand, to convey truth. Our
ability
to create is God-given. Without Him working through us we have nothing worth
saying. When we weave
words together to create a picture or
convey a thought, it is His creativity flowing through us.
Thought to ponder
If the simple
truth is that all creativity is from the Creator God, what better way is there to
equip ourselves for creative writing than to have an intimate, mentoring
relationship with Him?
Looking forward to seeing you Saturday,
Barbara
