Hunger

Does your hunger for the Word resemble a burning flame? Or is it more like smoldering ashes? Today, I’m thinking about truth and the responsibilities that we have to truth when teaching the Word. For those of us called to be teachers of scripture, we have been equipped to pass on these truths to tho

Subconcious Analogies

So I was writing this scene this morning. Sophie and Ludwig are standing along the bank of the Rhine, watching two swans float down stream.  They are talking about music, and about Ludwig’s unsuccessful and unpleasant trip to Holland.  He tells her that he doesn’t want to be expected to perform like

NaNoWriMo: Ten things I’ve learned in Week One

Beethoven vs CleverBot

As part of the National Novel Writing Month festivities, it was suggested to me by another Wrimo to visit Cleverbot.com and use the website to develop characterizations.  If you don’t know what a cleverbot is, its a software program that is designed to answer you as as if you are chatting with a rea

Me? A Writer?

On the Nanowrimo forums, someone posted an interesting question this week.  It seemed simple enough. “How old were you when you became a writer?” Well, that’s a very complicated question for me. I feel like I might be in minority on the nanowrimo forums in that I’ve come to consider myself a writer

A Note from the Author

In anticipation of NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) I have been itching to start writing my story.  My plot is mapped, my character sketches are mostly finished and my research is coming to an end.  But still the urge to get started early won’t go away, so I’ve tried to channel my writing in

Internet Forums & Bad Advice

A rant: I’ve noticed something weird about me.  On message boards and forums, whenever I notice a group of female members ganging up on a husband (who’s not there to defend himself) I tend to be the one that steps up and defends his  position, or rather, the position I imagine he would take if [...]

One Body, One Spirit

Last night,  Anne Rice posted something to her Facebook fan page that has sent shock waves through her fanbase and through the media.  She stated: For those who care, and I understand if you don’t: Today I quit being a Christian. I’m out. I remain committed to Christ as always but not to being “Chri
