Remember a while back I asked for you to contact me with any exciting news you wanted to share? Well, today we’re shining the spotlight on those members! PLEASE continue to send me your cheers so I can post them here. Some cheers are also taken from the “Cheering Section” on the FaithWriters forums.
What a joy it is to see what God is going through the FaithWriters members and to rejoice with each other in our accomplishments!
This month, join me in high-fiving the following members:
LISA HARRIS - Lisa was contacted through the FaithWriters Private Messenger by the publisher of Georgie Mountain Laurel Magazine, asking if Lisa would be interested in being a “Guest Columnist” for their Faith Section. She in now a Contributing Writer and no longer a “Guest.” Lisa says it has been a tremendous blessing to give to others as FaithWriters has given to her. GO LISA!
CASSIE JONES – Cassie wrote in to say: “I write a blog called New Beginnings http://cassandrajones-newbeginnings.blogspot.com one of my blog posts was recently published in a magazine called Extant. It is the first piece that I have had published. The really exciting thing for me is that they found me and asked to use it. I am just thrilled as I am new to writing but have know for a long time that this is what God has called me to do.” GO CASSIE!
JULIE ARDUINI - Julie has several exciting things happening in her writing life. 1. She is one of the contributing writers for Delivered with her story, More Than a Drink Coaster. 2. Her story, Who Hung the Moon (Upside Down?) is available in God Encounters: Stories of His Involvement in Life’s Greatest Moments by James Stuart Bell. Julie’s story is about my car accident while ten weeks into a high risk pregnancy. 3. On February 9 her article on marriage resources beyond Valentine’s Day was published at Exemplify Online Marriage Channel. Finally, Julie’s story, Midnight Surrender, From Tragedy to Triumph Extraordinary Answers to Prayer Guidepost series is soon to be published. This story is about surrender, of course. The topic is infertility. WOW! GO, GO, GO, and GO JULIE!

On February 3rd, my short inspirational JONQUILS IN THE SNOW went up on Smashwords. http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/9341
A month later, It remains in the top best sellers. I see God working. This is a heartwarming story about a young woman jilted before the wedding, and a man whose wife was killed by a drunk driver. A strong message of forgiveness and relinquishment.
God is so good! (
I tried to subscribed to your blog email, but the words don’t show in the verification box.) Help! LOL
Blessings to Faithwriters for keeping the faith.
Hugs,
Laurie
Hmmm. Not sure why the word verification isn’t showing up for you. Is anyone else having this problem?
Sorry for the inconvenience, Laurean. Maybe try logging offline and signing back on??
And CONGRATS on your success with your short inspirational. Awesome!!
Hey, thanks, Lynda, for the shout out about my Amish manuscript. I’m working on the book proposal now. ( :
I am thankful God led me to Faithwriters. This website has helped me improve my writing. The second entry I wrote on the intermediate level for the Australia theme was published in Clubhouse Jr. Magazine a year later.
Congratulations, Frances! That’s awesome!
