March 3rd saw the release of Called To Write - the new book by client Linda Gilden and co-written by Edna Ellison,
Called to Write will inspire you to either pick up the art of writing or
will affirm your calling to write for the kingdom of God. Written by
two award-winning and widely published authors and writing coaches, the
book is filled with wisdom about how to keep your writing in line with
the heart of God.
Called to Write identifies seven key
competencies every author needs to be a writer on mission. Two aspects
of each of the seven competencies are included. First, authors will
explore the competency through an informational chapter helping them
understand the importance of staying grounded in that competency area.
The informational chapter is then followed up by an inspiring
how-to-implement section making the book extremely practical. Called to
Write is ideal for keeping a Christian writer on track with a gospel
focus in their writing.
Since signing with me at Hartline published PERSONALity Perspectives (with co-author Tama Westman) and Mama was the Queen of Christmas under her own name, both titles from Oak/Tara. She also released the ebook version of her recently printed book Love Notes on your Pillow from Lighthouse Publishing of the Carolinas before publishing this title.
