Embrace Your Calling as a Kingdom Writer Today

Hmm… Kingdom Writers, huh? Well, I’m a writer and assuming “kingdom” means the Kingdom of God then yes, I am a Kingdom Writer. I always said that if it weren’t for God, I wouldn’t have the gift of writing. I wouldn’t be able to weave words, as they say.

Kingdom Writers is also a podcast. I discovered it over the last couple of days when looking at other writing podcasts. I wanted to share it with you. CJ and Shelley Hitz run the podcast. They also write their own content, including books, and have their own website.

Okay, so that was a big info dump, but I’m just so excited to share the information with you. If you write for God, I think you’ll enjoy the podcast.

I’m currently reading the book Kingdom Writers: Move Forward In God’s Call to Write. I just started it so I can’t say what it’s like just yet. If it’s anything like the podcast, I know I’ll be encouraged to keep writing. When I’m done with the book I’ll let you know my thoughts.

But for now, I’ll let you check out the links. I’ll let you make the decision for yourself if you’re a Kingdom Writer or not.

Take care and I’ll check back soon.

The Gluten Free Directory

Busy Day of Writing While Listening to The Creative Penn Podcast

Worked all day and most of the night on The Gluten Free Directory. I could work more, but I accomplished quite a bit and think I need to go rest for now. It’s after midnight where I am. Need my rest to take care of a sick husband and daughter tomorrow.

So I started out with only 44 companies offering gluten free products and I don’t just mean food. I am also referring to gluten free supplements, gluten free dog food too, something I was surprised to see. My list has grown to about 200 companies and my edit of this book has only just begun. Can you imagine how many companies I’ll have when this book is finished…well…tentatively finished, since it is a book that will constantly have to be updated to include the most up to date information.

This evening, while I was working on the book, I was listening to podcasts from Joanna Penn from The Creative Penn. Listening to her talk to other Indie authors and marketers is very inspiring and relaxing. I didn’t feel alone in my work, hearing other authors go through a lot to get a book written, published, and then marketed. Everyone seemed to have various methods on how they became successful.  Love this podcast and subscribed to it through iTunes. Highly recommend it.

I think podcasts may be in my future, but I need to read up about it. So we’ll see. Right now I’ll stick to You Tube, Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and Linked In, besides updating this blog.

So that is what I have been up today. Think it is about time to say good night. Will probably work on the book again tomorrow. Night everyone!
