What other reasons can you come up with for adding symbolism to your stories or poems? I needed to write my WC entry this week with a touch of symbolism, mostly because I was wrestling with the topic. The concept of the kingdom of God seemed very deep for my wee little brain, so I tried to dive int...

Here's a question.... do you think it's more important to have a killer first chapter (and hopefully the rest of the novel is good too) or have a well written proposal, etc.? Do I need to work more on my marketing skills to get published and win contests? Or can I just rely on my writing skills (ass...

I don't think I've ever found more encouraging competitions than we have here at Faithwriters. Everyone here seems far more interested in helping other writers to succeed, rather than backstabbing for a win. Here, we find our "competition" is just as likely to be our "cheerleaders&qu...

Well, I'm planning on being in. I'm working through the beginning stages right now, character sketches and the like, but my boys like the ideas (or they're at least showing interest, which any mom loves) and the plotline is floating around and not floating away. I'm excited and anxious. It's a HUGE ...

CONGRATS ALL - awesome entries all around, but you winners really rock!

I almost forgot how exciting Thursday is....
