Welcome, fellow writer!
How can I help you?
As a freelance writer, I know how competitive the market is. Breaking into the publishing industry can be filled with disappointment and rejection. The journey is long. But there’s always hope. Yes, hope for you.
Here’s a video I created to share why I write. I hope it encourages you to keep writing. Always remember your why/s.

Further Education for Christian Writers
I took their Apprenticeship Course in 2004-2006, which at the time was 50 lessons. Submitting assignments through e-mail to a mentor. Their programs have changed since then but I trust they have made them even more beneficial.
