Your Publishing Dream
Imagine . . .
You've been tracking the delivery of that box of books. Not just any box of books, but YOUR box of books. Your eyes glance out the front window every three minutes. And then, finally, the FedEx truck rumbles toward your house. The driver jolts to a stop, grabs the box, and scurries toward your front door.
But he doesn't have to ring the doorbell because you're already standing at the doorstep—a smile beaming across your face. Your debut book has arrived!
Can you imagine the thrill of opening that box? Will your fingers tingle as you flip through the pages for the first time? Will your heart swell with the satisfaction of this long-awaited achievement, your name emblazoned on the front cover?
Hard Work!
"Ugh!" you groan. Perhaps you were hoping for a secret plot formula or a method for using dramatic tension to hook your reader. Writing a book certainly requires mastering plot, characterization, description, figurative language, narration, dialogue, and a host of other writing techniques. But, ultimately, developing and implementing these skills within a book requires dedicated work!
"Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard."
–Tim Notke
If " hard work" doesn't scare you away, then congratulations! You likely have what it takes to achieve your dream of publication.
Seeing your name inscribed on the front cover of a book is exhilarating! But even more exciting is knowing that your book is being read and cherished by readers!
Writing is profoundly powerful. And if you're a Christian, you can use your writing craft to influence lives for the glory of God. If the Lord Jesus has gifted you with words, work skillfully and diligently to use that gift in whatever way He directs.
