Write His Answer

When my heart is faint and overwhelmed,
lead me to the mighty, towering Rock of safety.
Psalm 61:2 TLB

Monday mornings are challenging and overwhelming! And so is mopping up one conference and working to launch another. Well the Greater Philly Christian Writers Conference was launched April 1 when online registration opened, and the brochure has been off press for about six weeks. Still, when I look at my to-do list and the chaos in my office it’s hard to know where to start. And so, I’m choosing to pray and to praise – and to move my office to the back porch!

Sing praises over everything,
any excuse for a song
to God the Father
in the name of our Master,
Jesus Christ.
Eph. 5:20 MSG

Thank You, Father, for reminding me to praise You in all things. And thank You that what overwhelms me doesn’t overwhelm You. WITH You nothing is impossible.

This is a large work
I’ve called you into,
but don’t be overwhelmed by it.
It’s best to start small.
Matthew 10:41 (MSG)

July 30 – August 2 Greater Philly Christian Writers Conference

If you’ve emailed me and I’ve not yet answered, I’m hoping to get caught up on the backlog of emails this week.

Clinics – Applications will be online in the next couple of days. And what an exciting line-up of clinics we have this year:

Advanced Fiction Intensive with Nancy Rue
Nonfiction Book Prroposals with David Fessenden
Get Them Coming to Your Blog?Website with Megan Breedlove

Updating the conference website is high on my list of priorities this week including the addition of faculty bios and editorial needs. Once that is added, the Appointment Request Form will be available to those who have registered. As long as the form is submitted to us online by July 10, your appointments will be booked in the order that you registered.

Bonus appointment – Because I’ve been focused on the Colorado conference, I’ve not been sending updates on the Philly conference. Therefore, I suspect the May 31 deadline for the early registration discount caught many of you by surprise. I’m unable to change the date on the online registration form and the form printed in the brochure, but I will give everyone who registers through this Saturday, June 7, an additional free appointment.
