You know it’s the right career for you if you can’t not do it. And so it is for both the aspiring writer and the working writer. Writers write whether anyone reads or not. It’s a compulsion, because the words just keep coming. Those who write best, however, don’t write for the sake of writing, but for the sake of the reading. That is, we write with this purpose in mind- serving our readers. We want to bless our readers, to help them grow in grace and wisdom, to, for the Christian writer, praise Him more joyfully, follow Him more diligently, believe Him more passionately, reflect Him more clearly.
I published my first book, Money Matters, with Tyndale House 35 years ago. Since then I have published more than a dozen more. I’ve written for World, Chronicles, The Freeman, Homeschooling Today, Tabletalk and many more. I know how to get from inspiration to completion, and how to help others do the same. At my company, The Purpose Driven Write, I help writers not merely find their voice, but find their audience. I provide developmental editing services, coaching, copyediting and ghostwriting. I’m looking for writers and aspiring writers who want to tell not their story, but His story, and how He has changed them. I’m looking for those who have experienced the glorious truth that Jesus changes everything and who want to be used by Him to change others.
