The Montrose Christian Writers Conference is over for this year. It is always nice to have a writers conference in one's hometown ...it serves to get the juices going if they are lagging. The final session today was quite a way to end it as Grace Fabian spoke. She is a graduate of Davis College (old Practical Bible in Johnson City) and her husband was killed while translating I Corinthisns 13 as a Wycliffe Translator. We have our plans of serving God and then the unexpected happens. Suffering is something we don't expect to happen to us....but sometimes it does. As you can imagine it was quite a message. Aferwards many people wanted to tell of blessings during the week.
I, too, felt God working in my life this week. For now I won't go into those. But I will sum up by saying it was a week that I think God will use in my life. As far as writing goes, I have gained some new knowledge and realize the times are changing. I'm trying to help John as he searches out putting his book into e book form. This is new to us and quite interesting. More and more people seem to be reading books on Kindle. And I may be wrong but I think recently for a month ebooks outsold published bookds. I need to check if that fact is correct.

Wow, I totally Agree. Don't think I met you there but I too was blessed by the week! May you retain the fire you had when you left. I missed the rocking chairs on the front porch this morning. There is a Facebook Account for the Writer's Conference, it would be a great way for all of us to keep in touch. I am trying to figure out the blogging thing!
Grace is an amazing woman. I have known her since 2002. She inspired me to go to PNG. I was in PNG in 2005 for 2 months and I am looking forward to going back in the future.
