My writing assignments have been picking up considerably, and as much in the secular world as in the Christian realm. It has been amazing.
Among the assignments in my docket:
- setting up the content for a web page and e-book for a West Coast online website corporation
- writing a fiction novel based on the life of a retired DEA agent
- editing an e-book on the tournament preparation for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
- writing and editing a book for a Canadian e-company
- writing press releases and bios for the Ice Bears hockey team
- writing sports reports for the local pro basketball team
- getting back to my old radio days: writing copy and providing voice talent for a California website company
- writing articles and mini-bios for a new Christian e-magazine
- finishing up a proposal for a parents' book for Focus on the Family
The best way I can describe what is happening is the slow realization of Psalm 37:4 - "Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart. "
Few things in life I love doing more than writing. To turn a phrase spoken by Eric Liddell in the movie Chariots of Fire, when I write I feel God's pleasure. I know this is what He has for me, and I cannot get enough of it. I feel His movement as I work, whether it's a devotional from the book of Isaiah or a press release for the hockey team. Wow, this is good stuff, and it's one of the ways I feel God pats me on the back.
