What are you writing for?

I'm intrigued by today's Writing Tip comment--and was wondering if you all would weigh in with your thoughts.
Writing is both a privilege and a business.

There is so much truth in that. This gift we are all blessed with is a privilege. How are you using your gift? Are you playing with it? Are you honing it as a skill? Are you writing for yourself? For your friends? For your family? Or do you see this as your future?

We are entering the fall season - with thoughts towards writing for a more public audience. We are inviting guest speakers:
  • A Publisher
  • A Literary Agent

Our topics for fall are still under consideration as we review what you want to receive from our next series of meetings. Please chime in, and let us know how we can serve you and your needs as writers who take time out of your busy lives to hone your skills, and understand that balance is needed.

Looking forward to hearing your comments...

  1. I write because I enjoy writing. God has put the desire in my heart to encourage others with His wonderful Word. The Word has changed my life in so many awesome ways, I feel driven to share the nuggets He speaks to my heart with others. If I didn't write, I believe I would be disobeying God.
