What if a half-hour of your time could
- Fulfill a dream of being a writer.
- Provide you exposure to those looking for writers.
- Put you in contact with other writers like yourself.
- Use your gifts to serve the larger church.
- Provide you with refreshing entertainment.
- And allow you to HOOK THE BIG ONE.
BEGIN WITH A CALENDAR
If right now you pull out your calendar and find a free half-hour, there is a chance you can achieve more than half of what is above. In as little as a half hour at your computer or with pad and pen, you can compose an opening hook to a story that explores an issue in church or society. Go to http://tinyurl.com/Pwgffcontest for more information. Submit before October 12 to presbwriterscontest@gmail.com
You may have published before or you may have dreamed about it but were always too busy. An opening hook is the place to begin. What is that opening few sentences that would catch a reader’s attention?
LET OTHERS SEE YOUR GIFTS
Editors of the Presbyterian Publishing Corporation, the Presbyterian Outlook, and the Presbyterian Writer’s Guild will see your entry. You will have a chance to see how your hook compares to several other Presbyterian writers. Your hook might raise the interest of others in the church to think in a fresh way about an issue.
You won’t know what God can do with your gift for writing unless you attempt to exercise it and share it with others.
GO AHEAD, SCHEDULE YOUR HALF HOUR AND TAKE A STEP IN BEING THE WRITER YOU, AND MAYBE GOD, WANTS YOU TO BE.
Remember, the first deadline is OCTOBER 12. Submit it to presbwriterscontest@gmail.com and see if you can
HOOK THE BIG ONE.
