So today, I read of yet one more person who has amazingly been published and has a contract for two more books! The eagle and the wolf inside me struggled for power over my reactions! I immediatley spoke to God…”Are you kidding me Lord? Why can’t I get published? Heck, why can’t I even find the time to sit and think and write!” Only two words resounded in my head “Be still”. My response, “I want to Lord, seriously, I do!” So how does one blend family and work responsbilities with the desire to write, to create something profound, to see the story inside my head become realty on paper? This is the question I ask most often. HOW? Working full time, taking children here and there, teaching Sunday School, etc. etc. all seem to take precedent over my time at the keyboard. When I do find quiet time, it’s late at night and all I really want to do at this point is crawl quietly between the sheets! If anyone out there reads this, and you have had the privilege of being published, then clue me in to the “HOW”!
Professional jealousy?

"About you"? It is hard to declare any one thing or even a few things that would be of any interest to anyone! I love God. I know that I am His child, and I waver between being totally overwhelmed with His love, grace and mercy in my life, to being overwhelmed with how fast life is passing and how bad a job I have done at living this life He has given me. I often wonder if anyone else is out there walking around trying to act normal (which, if I may insert here, is really a relative term to everyone...what is normal?). About me? I am complicated! I love God with all my heart and want to serve Him with all my heart and want to do something important with all my heart and yet, this life I live everyday, doesn't seem to line up with that. More than anything - I want to be a published writer. I want to have the time to go to places that are surrounded by the sound of crashing waves and breezes and just listen. Or, to sit on a deck of some remote cabin and listen to the whisper of God's voice in the trees. I wonder.....I wonder if those moments will ever come? View all posts by dana2day
