things we have in common. I have 4 children,and long to
find time for everything too. My son used to ask me, as I
sat by his bed, "Mommy ,read me a story without a book!"
As a result we have created a few stories. I have always
had a talent in Art and have been dubbed the "church
artist" and am called on frequently. I'm happy to serve
and am secretly Thrilled with my little bit of fame! I'm
marking your site on my Favorites list. I'll use it to
study by! I have a lot of work ahead of me, but I'm sure
I'll reach my goals soon. And your site gives me the jump
start I need. God has helped me so much so I appriciate
your strength of Faith. He answered my prayer when my
second child was born and I had to find a way to help our
family finacially. I told God that I knew I needed to be
home to raise my babies, and yet we were in need of help
with the bills. I asked him to help me find a way to help
and still do the right thing for my children. He heard me,
and 2 weeks later , I learned how to draw caricatures and
started makeing a little $ at craft fairs and Comp.
picnics! It's really been wonderful and I've been able to
stay home with my kids now for 10 yrs! Well God Bless You
and I'll be back!

How did you find this site? = Surfing VENTRILOQUISM
comments = Kimn, This is a beautiful and inspiring site. I read the
quotes first and felt "she must be a Christian" -- then I
recognized bits & pieces from Free Methodist sources which
is the church where I cemented my relationship with the Lord
after a 1973 Bill Graham Crusade.
These days I'm starting to build a speaking career - and
hoping to "hit the road" this fall. God called me to be an
encourager, and a bearer of His message...and that I can't
stop putting it off any longer. So..your page was just what
I needed. I learned about a Christian Vent/Puppet college
in Illinois the first week in August, so I want to see if
this, ventriloquism, can be added to the already neat things
God has given me. I don't sing...I'm not an actress...but I
speak quite well and just want to do crazy things for God
for the end result in saving souls. That's most important
to me...seeing God's kids, of all ages, come to fellowship
with His Son.
Please check out my website. If this is in God's plan
I'm going to be in the market for a huge purple turtle vent!
God bless you in your further ministry as writer, homemaker,
mother, wife...

comments = Kimn,
I really believe the Lord meant for me to find your
website. I really enjoyed reading some of your articles,
especially the devotionals. I have been writing for some
time and have had some success selling fillers. It's been
amazing to me as a parent the analogies the Lord has pointed
out to me in my relationship with Him and in my relationship
with my two children. I have several other "analogy
devotionals" brewing in my mind. I just need to sit down
and type them. Coming across your website has encouraged me
to keep putting my thoughts down because I realize that God
can use them as a source of encouragement in other people's
lives. That is a very humbling and convicting thought.

Enjoyed meeting you and your family, love your personal testimony, kudos for homeschooling, we lost a lovable huggable Rottweiler to cancer a couple years ago so can identify with your loss of Isaac, read "Why We Need Each Other" and you have a grand writing style, and my favorite verse is Psa. 118:24 (This is the day the Lord hath made, I will rejoice and be glad in it) 'Twas my dad's favorite and I adopted it! Today, here in Upstate NY, my favorite quote is one of Helen Castle's, "If Noah had been truly wise, he would have swatted those two flies!" My favorite quote changes with circumstances.
Have you ever seen the book MOMMY, WHERE ARE YOU? by Kathi Mills? Great for would-be moms, toying with staying home vs. working outside. I think it's out of print, but I bought all I could get from Choice Books and give one to every one who might read and relish it.
Visited your lovely Seattle a couple years ago. I live in Upstate NY, NE of Syracuse, near Canadian border. Ever come East? Look me up. Truly!

explore it further. I have been searching for work opportunities in Christian
writing. I have done numbers of pieces for denominational publications and
want to expand to a broader field. Thanks for your site. It is refreshing!
I'm looking forward to exploring some of the links that are listed.

comments = Dear Kimn,
Just wanted to say I was pleased and gratified to see that
you'd included our competition, the Dana Awards, on your
site. Now, after reading your bio, publications and
awards, I see why you wrote "Sorry" about our restrictions
against writing for/by young adults--since those are
special areas of interest for you. If we ever expand our
categories beyond 4 (although 4 are barely manageable), I
have considered categories for juvenile/young adult writing.
Thanks again for listing us on your site. (Feel free to
list our url (above) if you note us next year. All info
should be the same except the postmark deadline date will
shift slightly, to its normal date, October 31 (this year
the 31st falls on a Sunday).
Your site provides a fine service for writers, and I'm sure
takes time to cull (I think I noted several of the same
listings INKLINGS carries??)
Best of luck in all your MANY writing projects.
Sincerely,
Mary Elizabeth Parker, Chair

Actually, now that I sense you are a Christian, I finished a
short story (2500 words)with a Christian message. The story
themes around a man (my brother-in-law), who wants/needs to
quit drinking, but his working bud's continually snare him
"for a few more." My short story, THE RABBIT EARS LISTENED,
lends "Larry" their ears. Actually, they are a pair of
granite peaks located 10 miles from where I work! Have any
suggestions as to where to pitch my short work?

laughed out loud when I read your identity crisis story
(hair change). I thought it was great! I too am a
Christian. I am also a writer/illustrator. You can check

God bless with all you do! I'll be back to check out your

spent much time in your website until today. What fun I've
had reading your writing samples! Your writing is fun to
read, inspirational, and delightful. Thanks for posting
your articles for us.
Thanks also for sharing contest info on the write4kids message board.
I feel like I know you now (before, I just Cyber-knew you)!
Let's see; you ask for my favorite scripture. I have so
many favorites, it's hard to choose. I love:
James 1:2,3 "Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various
trials, knowing that the testing of your
faith produces endurance." (I must continually remind myself of this :) )
2Timothy 1:7 "For God has not given us a spirit of
timidity, but of power and love and discipline."
Romans 8:1 "Therefore, there is now no condemnation for
those who are in Christ Jesus."
and my favorite...
Psalm 32:7 "Thou art my hiding place; Thou dost preserve me
from trouble; Thou dost surround me with songs of deliverance."
When I was diagnosed with cancer, 5 years ago, I had no
recollection of this verse. God was my hiding place then,
but I was amazed to realize that God's praises were
continually in my thoughts in the form of praise songs. I
almost heard them with my ears and sang them often as a
result. I believe now that He was surrounding me with His
songs of deliverance. BTW, I'm fine now.

only decided to sign your guestbook today. Just feeling my
way around the Web. My favorite scripture would be very
hard to say: so many great things were said by our Lord and
those who wrote the Bible. I guess the two I live by are:
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you, and Cast
your bread upon the water and it will come back two-fold --
trying every day to get that last one into my kids' heads,
translated as: Do bad; get bad -- Do good; get good. SO BE
GOOD.
All the best, Joy

No favourite quote/scripture but I think you'll like the
following poem(if you haven't seen it before !).
If you think you you are beaten you are
If you think you dare not,you don't
If you'd like to win, but think you can't
It's almost certain you won't.
If you think you'll lose,you've lost
For out of the world we find
Success begins with a fellows will-
It's all in the state of mind.
If you think you are outclassed, you are
You've got to think high to rise
You've got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.
Lifes battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the one who THINKS he can.

others, but consisting primarily of Mormonic beliefs. Thus,
I attend the Church of Latter Day Saints regularly. I
thought the pure writing age was over and reading your
story changed my mind.
