Ethics of The Ending
I am a Christian. That may conjure up many things in your mind. Regardless of what you might be thinking right now, I will say this. Just as your personal beliefs shape your view of the world, so do mine. So, while I don’t demand that you agree with my view of the world (although […]
Marketing for an Audience of One
Guest Blogger: Morgan L. Busse Many of us Christian writers have heard the term “write for an audience of One.” Our first audience is God. When God is our audience, we seek only to please Him, and to let Him do what He wants with our writing. Recently, it occurred to me that the same […]
Breaking out of the Christian cocoon
