Christian Fiction Book Review

I just finished this book the other day. And wow! It was great! But before I go into details let me give you some backround on the author.

Ron Benrey has co-authored, with his wife Janet, seven Chrisian novels. (Little White Lies, The Second Mile, Humble Pie, Dead as a Scone, The Final Crumpet, Glory Be!, and Gone to Glory) He has also written one romance novella, a shorter than usual novel, named Once Upon a Shopping Cart. Benrey frequently teaches at leading writers' conferences and is a mentor at a Christian Writers' Guild. He also teaches adult courses in theology.

Now that we got background out of the way, this book was great! He didn't leave a single thing out. Benrey goes through four different parts. Part 1: Understanding Christian Fiction, Part 2: Writing a Publishable Christian Novel, Part 3: Sitting Down to Write Christian Fiction, and Part Four: Get Your Christian Novel Published.

He does an absolutely fantastic job of laying out everything.  Found it extremely helpful in many ways. Two thumbs up, five stars, and an A+! Loved it! You should defiantly buy this book!!!

Oh, Not Again!

Yup, it happened again. I stopped my current (unnamed) novel. I was almost done. My plot was running out.     And I wasn't even halfway to where I wanted to be! Grrrrrr, all that time for another unfinished novel. Well I guess it's time to try again. In the words of Babe Ruth, "Just keep swingin'."

P.S. Perhaps one day I'll fine tune the short novel and publish it on kindle for cheap. Watcha think? Is it a good idea?

The Second Greatest Lie Ever Told

This is a booklet we used in NYC. I would highly recommend it for new and old Christians alike! It goes through the following religions: Sikh, Islam, Jehovah's Witness, Roman Catholicism, Buddhist, Mormonism, and Christianity. And it tells why Christianity is the only true religion. Buy it here:

A Novel Idea Review

This is by far the best book on writing I have ever read. Basically, a bunch of christian writers got together to write this. Jerry B Jenkins, Francine Rivers, Angela Hunt, Donita K Paul, and many more! (Even though they say Francine Rivers took part in it, she only had two short interviews, which disappointed me.) It is jam packed with advice, exercises, and much more. I give it five out of five, two thumbs up. And I would recommend it for any writer at any level. Get it NOW!!!

Wow!

Just realized how much I missed on a one week trip.

My Brother and Sister-in-law bought a house
We got rid of our white car
My cousin got married
(I think there was something else but I cannot put my finger on it)

Yeah three pretty major events. (the car may not seem major but it really puts a chip in my plans) So all this to say I am never leaving home, for more than a few days, again........

(Until next summer)
