"Behind The Author" Text

I am an author but I am many things. Sometimes I take photos. That is a hobby. I always have my writing in my head and in my heart. The Lord inspired me to write. He gave me ideas before I even thought about writing. Writing started as a hobby. It was a hobby for years. Then it became a passion. My motive for writing is to honor the Lord for the Gift He gave me. My wish for my writing is to inspire, comfort, and encourage. I include real-life issues in my fiction. I also mention the Lord in my fiction. I do not focus on marketing or sales. It is not about that to me. It is worth it if I can help just one in some way. I can do that without sales. I try to share some of my writing for free to try to inspire, comfort, and encourage. I let the Lord and the ideas lead my writing. I have published spiritual books, children's books, poetry books, and literary fiction books. I have published several to reach out to the hurting. I follow the ideas. Some days I do not write anything. Some days I write a lot. I do not force the ideas. I do not care about being well known. It is not about me. It is about the writing. I try to let the writing speak for itself. It is always about the Lord. I believe the Lord gave me the gift of imagination and writing to get through everything this disability causes. I believe He keeps giving me ideas because He knows as long as I keep writing I will not give up. If I sell a lot or if I sell just a few, it will not change why I write. It will not change how I write. Writing is a gift. Writing is a passion. I write to honor the Lord for His Gift to me.
