The Writer In Me

There's a writer in me that's trying to grow up.

Sometimes my inner writer produces quality manuscripts, and sometimes, she's undisciplined and just wants to play.


My Grandaughter Playing Dress Up

Kind of like when my grandkids play dress up. They love to model for me and show off, but they are no where near mature enough to be a real adult and handle grown up responsibilities.

Attending the Laity Lodge's Writer's Retreat would mature me as a writer. Not just in the mechanics of my writing, but in the chance to catch the vision of Christ centered writing through the deepening of relationships with such wonderful writers as Laura Boggess, Marcus Goodyear, Sam Van Emam, and Howard E. Butt.

In my opinion, the High Calling editors and staff are the real deal. They love Christ and are totally committed to sharing His message in articulate ways that will reach the masses.

I have learned so much from them just through the few articles I've been fortunate enough to write for them, and by interacting on their site: http://www.thehighcalling.org/.  To have a chance to be in their shadow at the writer's retreat would give me a once in a lifetime chance to have them imprint their passion and wisdom in my spirit.

I have no book project to promote, or any other agenda in wanting to come but to sit in the shadow of greatness and to absorb as much into my spirit and mind as is humanly possible.
