My current writing project is my personal story of relationships and how I turned to the Lord Jesus for guidance. The book is written in stages and for each stage I have written poetry from my past relationship that really tells the story of my quest to obtain real love. The book was written to help and bless other women to turn to Jesus for guidance in allowing Him to choose the right mate. The first stage of the book shows my natural love for man. The end stage shows my spiritual love for Jesus. The middle shows the process of how I got there,

I have written a Christian murder mystery. I attended a writer's conference last year (Glorietta, in New Mexico). I met Rod Morris, the editor of Harvest House. He liked it, and the book almost got published. I'm trying to find some way to get the book to the right publisher. I hope the Writer's Edge can help! Lenore Hammers

Comments and current writing projects:

Writting on the theme, "Circumstances or the Providence of God" asking the question, "why am I the way that I am, where do I fit into the providence of God, what is the reason for my being?" these questions have been asked by ourselves over and over again. In this book, I look at the total providence, the timely manner of future events as it relates to us as individuals and how circumstances comes to us in three ways that, even though we have a free will, how it all fits into the timely manner of future events that God as previously ordained from the setting of the foundations of Earth, to the birth of Christ, to the final last soul to be confirmed in the Book of Life, to eternity. I have spent many years researching the scriptures and studying the lives of our ancient fathers to present notable figures and how thier lives brought about the providence or future events that were prophised in ancient script to modern day events.

My current writing project is of the Christian Fiction genre, and titled "Shanky." This project is complete and awaiting publication. I'm simultaneously working on three projects that are all near completion, two works of fiction and one non-fiction. My published projects are: (1) "Jamaica-Joy: Her American Dream" and (2) "Kingston City." Both books are availabe through book stores such as Barnes and Noble, as well as through online sources such as amazon.com. My goal is to write up to 21 books before leaving this world. Thus, I can, nor do I want to, stop writing, and I thank God for the ability and the opportunity to do what I love to do best. Thank you. --Jascinth Brockington

This little old man is at a loss as to what to do! I have an idea (pretty well worked out already) for a Prayer Bible. People I have shown it to are very enthusiastic but try as I might, I can not seem to get hold of any one to look at publishing it! I live in South Africa and the market place here is very restricted - in terms of publishers - every one just wants well established authors. I have looked around the web as well and I am unable to get any assistance from any one. Also costs are prohibitive from South Africa because our currency is so weak against the dollar! Do you have any suggestions as to what I can do, who I may contact etc. Thanking you in anticipation. PS. Sally Stuart suggested I contact your organisation.

My current writing project is a novel about a farm family in the midwest in the 1930's, a time when life may appear simple compared to present day experiences but they too were, in their own way, confused and fearful and searching. This is a first novel. I have written a children's book of silly poems that I'm preparing to send out also witten a lot for children and had poems,articles published in Cricket, Guidepost for Kids, Bread for Children,Pockets and many other Sunday school papers. McGraw Hilll picked up one of my articles for rheir school reading books. I find submitting work much more competitivem with a greater need to really study the market. Writers Edge does what it says. Gives us a place where we can have an edge.

My first two books: 40-Day Journey to the Heart of God: an Adventure in Prayer and "Alphabet Prayers...the Power of Praying Scripture into the Hearts You Love" and my third one published, "PRAYING GOD'S WORD for the WORLD-Lighting Pathways of Blessing!" have taught me that once the book is written, that is really just the beginning. At the finish of my first book, I thought, "Whew, all the hard work is done!" And I was wrong! It takes continued prayer, alot of work and sacrifice. This is an area of spiritual service, dependance upon God and of course great blessing to! I am working on my next book, a Women's Devotional and just keeping my eyes open for the right venue!

Comments and current writing projects:

I just finished a doctoral dissertation entitled "Shepherding Souls: A Curriculum to Equip Laity in the Ancient Art of Judeo-Christian Soul Care. . . . The key researchable question was “Could developing and teaching a curriculum to equip the laity in ancient Judeo-Christian soul care revive a church in an identity crisis and on the brink of extinction?” Therefore, the practical aim of the project was to reclaim the rich heritage of ancient Judeo-Christian soul care or the Classical Pastoral Care Tradition as described by Thomas C. Oden (Care of Souls in the Classic Tradition). Bible-based, socioculturally-devised curriculum, representative of the classical pastoral care tradition, was written to empower, equip, and encourage Grace Community Church of God, a small church plant, for shepherding souls. Representative, prototypical soul shepherds Augustine, Gregory the Great, Bernard of Clairvaux, Richard Baxter, and Jonathan Edwards were chosen . . . I am spiritually compelled to share the information in this dissertation more broadly than Morgan Library at Grace College and Seminary, Winona Lake, Indiana. I have just started the process of getting this work published. Dr. Paul V. Burrus, M.S., M.Div., D.Min. 312 Willard Drive Auburn, IN 46706 (260) 925-1337

Comments and current writing projects:

I have always loved to write. The first instance I can remember where I wanted to write a novel was after I watched "Little Women." I was, I guess, between the ages of 6 and 8. Since then, I have written little things for my own enjoyment. I love description. Many times I have sat down and described landscapes, both real and imaginery, but I especially like to describe storms. My first real attempt at a complete novel was in 2005. I was 15 years old. I finished it in a year, but I got no feedback when I sent a query in to a publisher in 2006. I came up with the idea for ECHOES on New Year's Eve, 2006 and began writing shortly afterward. I completed it in nine months and have been revising and editting ever since. I was so excited to find you, and I look forward to working with you soon (Lord willing)! Thank you so much for providing new authors with ways to reach the publishing world.

It seems that I have the gift of writing and the passion to write. I have written an allegory about what happens to a soul when it is hurt. I also have stories for childrens books and a sci-fi series and inspirational romance and many pices. It is time I trust God and start looking for a publisher or publishers. It is hard for God to provide when I won't even gather jars to put the oil in or give Him myloaves and fishes. So here goes. I will be submitting soon.

Missing Pieces is the Story of Donna Elaine - twice married (once divorced - once widowed). Having to start over so many times, she often felt that life was a continuous struggle, like going uphill on roller skates against the wind. Her mind would often go back to simpler times when she was a child. Happy times that were unencumbered by the trials and the cruel tricks that the world often played on people. But had they really been simpler times? She remembered pieces of her distant past - family members who weren’t around anymore. She remembered being about 4 years old, looking out of the back of a Greyhound bus, waving goodbye to her two brothers and sister, who grew smaller and smaller as the bus rolled out of the Port Authority in New York City. She also remembered her mother crying the middle of the night for years - crying for her lost children. She remembered her mother talking to some men in whispers, so she wouldn’t hear; but she did hear, as she was usually hiding just around the corner. They talked about them - the missing children - and how they would try to help her get them back. And then her mother would burst into tears once again. She remembered the blue box that held pictures of them all as young children and she would often retrieve it from beneath her bed and lay them out and talk to these missing children, vowing in her heart to find them someday. What she didn't know was that they often talked about her, too. and wondered what happened to their little sister and their mother. This is Donna’s story - of family ties that, in spite of years of separation, never broke - and of her passionate search to find that which would fill the void in her heart. It is also the story of the struggles she endured along the way and the man named Richard whom she had met through the most unlikely means; the man who gave her courage to live life again to the fullest. Not only did she find the "missing pieces, but she also was blessed to find additional pieces to make the tapestry of her life complete. More importantly, it is the story of the unwavering faith of a child, and how God always answers prayer - only in HIs time and in His way.

Comments and current writing projects:

My book is a short 55 pages, but I think it conveys the title of my book, Pray His Will. That is the only way Jesus directed us to pray. God has promised if we pray in His will, He will do what He has said. I began to journal my prayers as I studied God's Word and as the Holy Spirit taught me God's will for me as a wife, a mother, a grandmother and a Christian. These prayers are referenced to the Book and Chapter from which they are taken with the idea that the reader will read the Word as they develop their prayer life. There is a lot of emotion in these prayers because of family crises, but also great encouragement from His Word.

Comments and current writing projects:

a book of commercial fiction based out of Boston Bay in the 1640s. A great deal of action and a wonderful love story between two young married people. The book's message is gospel based. 80,000 words. My experience with getting my fiction considered as a previously unpublished fiction author who, incidentally, has another commercial Christian fiction novel ready for sale? I think the experts are correct. It is very difficult to get looked at and read. Those that may breeze over it find my novel "a world full of colorful characters and a terrific plot." I'm hoping to find the one gambler in publishing who actually reads the book and knows just what to do with it. I've proven myself a good businessman in the past and I am published in non-fiction and smaller pieces. Now, I'm hoping I can learn 'writer's marksmanship' quickly and hit the target dead on.

THree finished manuscripts. Courage of Grace, about facing teenage pregnancy, written from three points of view: my pregnant daughter, my wife's and mine. A "Normal" Christian family learns about grace the hard way. the second is a adventure/hint of romance novel called Mission of Mercenary. A pastor stuck in the rut of "doing church" finds himself involved with an international mercenary group, and CSIS (The Canaidan equivilent of CIA). The third is a story of a marriage from passionate pre and newly weds, to comfort, to estrangement, to separation and finally to reconciliation. I want a novel of hope, without it being too sappy. Needs professional help! it reads too sappy right now. Oh, Well, I'll keep trying.

“Message Delivered,” is a unique book that reflects my life’s journey with our Lord Jesus Christ and the task of delivering messages he has given me. These messages are exceptional in there own way, because they say the things that the pastors and Church leaders won’t say to their congregations. This book is definitely a wake up call. Plus several of the Chapters are dedicated to some of the things that hold us back from deepening our relationship with the Lord and our duties as Christians. Through my life’s journey I have experienced all of this and more with the Lord as my tutor. This book will be read by all Christians and non-Christians, those that want to develop a better relationship with the Lord according to his will. The book is ready to formally submit. This is my first manuscript written for publication.

Current project: young adult/sci-fi novel in revision. I initially wrote it because I wanted a cohesive, action-filled work geared towards teenagers without diversions into senseless teen romance :) There's enough of that out there.

I recently mailed you three chapters of my completed novel, "Kurt Nickle-Dickle of Whiskers." The novel (several years in the writing) is Christian allegory. It should appeal to both older children and adults who enjoy such books as "The Wind in the Willows" and "The Chronicles of Narnia." I appreciate the service you offer and anxiously await your response.

Comments and current writing projects:

I'm working on a project entitled "Faith for a Doubting Thomas" that argues, among other things, that faith and doubt are not mutually exclusive termsp; i.e. the presence of doubt is not the absence of faith. Instead, doubt is necessary to the faith experience and, as such, cannot be eliminated but can be overcome. It is a case of "Lord I beleive, help my unbelief". The experience of Thomas is used as a template revealing the struggle many Christians have when the extraordinary claims of Christianity and their own spiritual experiences are set against the seemingly 'hard facts' of living in the natural world and in an increasingly secular society.

Hi, my name is Destanie. I'm 16 and currently re-writing a story that I wrote last year titled "You're Worth It". It's about a girl who is getting into a lot of trouble because she wants some attention from her parents. Her dad used to be a lot of fun and they used to be really close, but when she was nine her dad divorced her mom, married someone else and totally forgot about his daughter Shyniece. Since then Shyniece has gotten into drugs, been suspended from school, and also is the leader of a gang. If you wanna know how she ends up you're going to have to write me back. God bless.

Comments and current writing projects:

For a few years I have been doing inductive studies of various women of the bible and writing biographical commentaries based on my study. I have "completed" chapters on Mary - Mother of Jesus, Eve, Sarah, Naomi & Ruth, Deborah, The Shunammite Woman, Martha & Mary, and the Proverbs 31 Woman. I hope to have Hannah and Abigail done by June. This was initially my journey to understand "what a Christian woman is" from God's perspective. My husband and I have 4 children and live in St. Joseph, MI. I've spent a lot of time ( but random and sporadic) on this as a means for God to show me what He says to women today through the holy women of the past. I think it could benefit others as a bible study for women's ministries or for just good reading and fresh insight. I've chosen these particular 10 holy women of the past because of my study of 1Peter 3:5 when Peter tells women to model their lives after Sarah. As my study has progressed I've seen that the bible does emphasize a very specific and beautiful calling for Christian women to find their identity in Christ and to delight in biblical womanhood. I think this study will also help other women to clarify issues in their lives and be inspired by the very brave women of the bible. I am delighted to learn of the services of your organization and intend to send a sampling in soon. Thanks.

Comments and current writing projects:

I was the Pastor of Mt Olive General Baptist Church in Fenton MO for 17 years. I am interested now in writing now. I have my manuscript complete except for editing and fine tuning. I'm very confident that there is a large audience for it. It is essentially a commentary on the Gospel of Mathew. I use the term loosely because it also has humor, personal experience and illustration. I've named it, "Yore Amissin A Grate Rain." It is a play on the title of Manager Whitey Herzog's book, "You're Missing a Great Game." The Hillbilly way in which the title is written has to do with life in the Ozarks and With the simplicity of the Gospel Story. The thesis is, Embracing the Kingdom that now is. This is a book written from an amillineal point of view and also an Armenian point of view. It will entertain and also give Christian apologists something to debate.

I just left the "Whitaker house" site; your name was referenced. Although I have been a christian for 20 years, this is my first book. I have always been puzzled, as well as frustrated, at the seeming contradictions in the four gospel accounts of Christ's resurrection. In 2004 the Lord led me to lead a Sunday school study (adult) of that subject. My book is the result of that study. I am convinced that there were 3 separate groups of women who visited the Lord's sepulcher Easter morning, and I use scripture to show it. In addition, I expanded a bit to reconcile the accounts of Jesus' appearances over 40 days. The title is: Resurrection Sunday: Reconciling the Gospel Accounts Below is the current list of chapter headings. It will give you an idea of the scope of my work. 1. Errors and Contradictions 2. Women of the Resurrection 3. The Watch 4. Something About Gaps 5. Gaps in the Resurrection Accounts 6. First Arrivals 7. The Rest of the Women. 8. The Rest of the Day 9. Forty Days My work is a detailed commentary, and should be suitable for pastors and preachers, as well as college faculty and students. I believe it is "readable" enough for any christian with a little knowledge of, and love for, the Bible. All quotes are from the King James version. Thank you, and God's blessings David

I sincerely hope that you can help me truly get an "edge" in this market. I am working on a Christian suspense novel. I originally entitled it OUT OF THE DARKNESS but have tentatively retitled it INTO THE LIGHT. Cheryl Carlisle, wife of multimillionaire Malcolm Carlisle, witnessed her husband’s murder. Recovering from a mental breakdown, Cheryl is haunted by memories, fears, and a sense of guilt. Long-time friend Dr. Evan Ferguson is convinced that Malcolm’s killer did not act alone and that Cheryl’s life may be in danger. Malcolm Carlisle’s killer, driven by a thirst for revenge, has vowed to make Cheryl pay for a crime he believes she committed years ago. Armed with his faith in God, Evan is determined to stop at nothing to protect Cheryl from her past and help her build a new future. So far I have completed seven of the sixteen chapters. I plan to submit this draft to the Writers Edge next month.

I am currently writing about my experience as a member of the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, (owner of Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut) and my 10-year pathway of random experiences including the pride of Indian heritage, sudden wealth, addiction, corruption, and a fall from grace. At my lowest point, I turned to Jesus Christ and He healed the pain of physical and sexual abuse and rejection that I had not realized was poisoning my soul since early childhood. I am now transformed through the complete renewal of my mind as a result of knowing and receiving the love of God, and learning who I truly am in Christ Jesus. My story is one of rags to riches, struggle and pain, and triumph through the saving grace, love and emotional healing of Jesus Christ. It is my hope that this story serves as an evangelistic vessel through which other Native Americans as well as people throughout the entire world may find God's truth for their lives, and freedom from the bondage of sin.

It's been a labor of love (as I'm sure any author would say) And, I've basically told the Lord I'll write this thing in it's physical form. I'll put in the long hours of research and the frequent writes and rewrites of each chapter. After that, it's in Your hands. That's where I am now...it's finished and it's in His hands.

Because The Writer's Edge advice and guidance has been invaluable to me in the past, I recently submitted my book "Raney Days" to you. Within a few days it was posted on your website that it had been assigned to a reviewer. One week later, The Writer's Edge mailed a congratulations letter to me! I'm amazed at the prompt reply and ecstatic about the exposure The Writer's Edge offers for such a small fee. Thank you and may God bless you all for your faithful service to Him. Kay McElroy

I am an electrical engineer with a passion for the Bible. I have written a commentary on the book of Revelation, entitled, "A Personal Revelation." I simply used Bible software, history, prayer, and a desire to help others to write my book. I found the exact dates for the book of Revelation and the birth of Jesus. I explain Daniel's 70 Weeks as well as the other numbers and symbols. I am very discouraged with the whole publishing process. I understand that I do not have a theology degree, but as an engineer I am accustomed to finding the answers to difficult problems. Perhaps that is why I was able to find so many of the answers that others are still seeking. I have sold 350 self-published copies.

Comments and current writing projects:

After submitting my first manuscript a few months ago entitled "Whatcha Gonna Do When They Come For You," I am currently working on my second non-fiction manuscript entitled "I wish I Could Take It Back." So many Christians become totally defeated after sinning or making a mistake, encountering failure or disappointment. This book is going to allow the readers to come face to face with the Jesus that forgives, therefore, allowing us to forgive ourselves, also. It's easy to say we forgive others, but getting over the mess-ups we have done against another is a different story altogether. Jesus is not throwing stones at you and you ought not to be throwing them at yourself.

Comments and current writing projects:

I wrote a book in layers of meaning, keeping true to the fairy tale theme of Cinderella but through the eyes of Drizzella. Of course she wanted to be a princess too, not fair only one prince. Cinderella being an example of a true christian,(even though not part of the actual writing of the tale.) Cinderella offers,well I guess I shouldn't give away the ending. For me there is meaning abound even though it has the guise of a tale so as to make it more palatible. Also I have felt for quite sometime that the princess fairytales that are imbedded in the female imagination and have historically shaped the female idea of happiness to an unrealistic level of unattainablity leaving many women with the idea that they have been cheated in life, because their prince did not come. Or there prince didn't turn out to be much of a prince. But if you are female and a Christian your true prince is Christ. I will be sending in my book to writer edge and you should receive it within the week, thanks Judy

I have been led of the Lord to write encouraging vignettes to those who seek a deeper, more fulfilling walk with the Lord Jesus. The excerpts are a mix of both prose and poetry, and they have have been really flowing naturally and quickly. But, as I am a first-time writer with no credentials, I am a little overwhelmed by the "publishing industry" and the seemingly impenetrable walls that surround it. But my faith is in the Lord, and because I have no agenda other than to see the Body of Christ strengthened, I shall move forwrd in the Lord with joy and confidence!

Title: THE SECRET OF THE SECOND COMING: Christemdom Must be Reborn. Theme; Humanity, the created order, and the ground of their being. Thesis: Physics. and Christian metaphysics are in fundamental agreement concerning the relation of intelligent life to the cosmos. The Cosmic Christ symbolized in the formula "I am the Alpha and the Omega" equals Big Bang and Omega Point. Resurrection, transfiguration, and ascension describe the dynamics of intelligent life on earth as it evolves from origin to destination. In the 3rd millennium Christianity still in the larva stage, will feed on empirical science and pupate for a palingenesis of Christendom, now menaced by militant Islam. Like a caterpillar transfigured into a butterfly, Homo sapiens will become transhuman for ascension into space. . Referred by Lindsey Spoolstram, Executive Assistant, Baker Publishing Group

I just recieved my letter of "rejection" from Writer's Edge- not what I had hoped for BUT first off, I appreciated a quick response- two and a half weeks from when I mailed it off. And although I am disappointed, I don't feel like I wasted my money. My reviewer was very specific with why he/she felt it was not marketable at this time and the advise was excellant. He/she gave me a lot of positive feed back about my writing strengths and was very specific with my weaknesses, sighting examples from my manuscript. It is all things I can work on and change and improve, and frankly, they were all things I had noticed myself and passed by. I tried several years ago to publish a book and was frustrated after contacting hundreds of publishers. If one of them could have told me what to do to make it better it would have saved me so much time, money, energy and disappointment. I feel like I have something to go on here. I can make it better and I want it to be the best I can possibly make it. I have had a good experience with Writer's Edge and I will use them again with the understanding that I may only be paying for a good critique of my work. But what is that worth if it helps you to be a better writer?

It's impact will surpass that of Paxton's work called "The Shaking of Adventism" as well as Walter Rea's work in 1982 called "The White Lie." Although I am meeting with officials of the SDA church, it is very unlikely that they will be able to publish this book on their denominational presses because it documents the largest fraud in their history. So who would be the best publisher for such a book? Baker? Erdmans? Tom Norris for Adventist Reform www.adventistreform.com

Who is the Banana Lady? She is a writer who would like to propose a series of three books(fourth one on the way),with a unifying banana theme. First of which is "I'm Going Bananas" wherein humorous anecdotes segue into meditative thoughts that touch the mind and spirit. This has a Carmen Miranda touch dealing with the ripening process of a Christian. Look at lulu.com under Carol Levergood to see what she has been up to. Currently working on "Piece of Cake!"(banana cake that is)Thankyou for your taking time to read this. The Banana Lady

I have written an illustrated commentary on the Book of Revelation, that clears up several areas which other authors have not discussed. It is clearly written so that when anyone finishes Revelation, it is no longer a mystery to them. I am trying to get it published and want an application so that I can send it to you for review.

You will soon be hearing from me. I have been working on a manuscript for a number of months and have found the idea of publishing a daunting one. I have a message "burning in my bones". It had changed my life as a pastor and I believe is a "now" word for the church. I expect to be sending you what you request within the month. Thank you in advance for your service.

I am very interested and sending my manuscript for review and/or consideration with a Christian Publishers. Awesome Wonder-Taste and See, was written to hopefully encourage and inspire others to live above victim mentality, to share the grace, mercy, and power of God. It is about personal experiences that by statistics should have rendered me addicted to drugs, mentally & emotionally unstable, or just plain lost in this journey on earth. Or perhaps all of those things if not suicidal or dead by now. For whatever reason God allowed me to live to share my story and encourage others. Not only did he allow me to live, he allowed me to live in joy and peace in spite of those things that should have stolen or destroyed my joy and peace. I only hope that sharing my stories will encourage, inspire, lift some up, or cause others to seek and even closer relationship with God. My book isn't about shining the light on the negative experiences of my life from childhood to adult, but sharing the negative while allowing the light to shine on the positive outcomes. Thank you, Allison R. Warren aka Allison Royalette

It has been a daunting task to determine even the first step! You're process has been the most clear-cut yet thorough I've researched. I'm excited to submit my book proposal to you and watch the results. Thank you again and here's to the beginning of our relationship!

These are a collection of spiritual "sayings" and quotes of noted authors from 25 years of my journaling. At present I am perusing Sally Stuart's Market Guide. Sincerely, in His Grace, Anne Grace

Hi. Just stopping by. Well, I have finished my project...with a little fine tuning in the research department; I should be ready to take the plung. I have to say I'm nervous...really nervous. It's a western, which is my favorite era to write, though not the only one. I am hoping someone, someday likes it as much as I do. I hope to mail it out before summer- any long than that and I'll be procrastinating. Read you soon.

After reading most of the comments, I think I will try Writer's Edge. My daughter and I have co authored a book about her long journey back from a traumatic brain injury, losing her small son in the car accident, her imprisonment and then her miraculous recovery. Our story offers hope and we want to share it with others.
