Gifting doesn’t seem to have anything to do with the good and right work before us. Go on in grace and write that book!

I failed both semesters of senior english class in high school. My first book comes out in January.

Write that book. Don't let your past keep you from what's ahead.

Hey, at least you were in AP. I was in regular English and barely got by at that!

I'm not called to write a book, either. As a matter of fact, I don't understand why I write what I do. It really doesn't seem like the world needs it that badly.

But, it's my thing and so I keep goin'. I think there are many ways to work on a book, so good on you for giving it a go. There are no wrong approaches.

Brother Young! I love this path for you and all who God will bless through your writing. I will be praying for you to make the time and space for following through and that Spirit guide your mind/heart/hands through the process. I'm already ready to preorder my copy lol
