icon_cotton.jpg Kathryn Langpresents some tips and tricks that she has learned from blogging. Her entry, “Blogging Will Help Your Writing” , is posted at The Peculiar Club.

 

icon_cotton.jpg Anne Creed presents Faith and Fiction posted at Novel Struggles. I believe that if I step out in faith, God will direct my writing. It’s like stepping out of the boat to walk to Jesus. So far, I get afraid and start to sink. I believe that God has given me the talent and the calling to write a novel. I need to overcome my fear with faith.

From the day I received my first diary in the second grade, I've had a passion expressing myself through writing. Later as a journalist and novelist, I realized words, if used powerfully, have the ability to touch, stir, and reach from the depths of one soul to another. Today as a writing and health coach, I inspire others to live their extraordinary life and encourage them to share their unique stories.
