Writing certainly continues to bless me, and hopefully others too.

I always think of myself as a Christian writer although my content is not always faith based. I strive to let God use me regardless of who I'm writing for - whether it's writing for children, encouraging parents, or sharing my experience of God with other Christians. Thanks Janet also for making the point about not being drawn to the dollar. I must admit to finding this a challenge at times as a Christian blogger!! I agree… it all depends on the audience.

I've written for many business publications and have found that if some are inspired by what I write they start to 'investigate' me online to see what else I've written. It's during that process they discover I'm a Christian and I've received so many emails (and some phone calls or written letters and cards) from those who just want to connect or reach out and be noticed and acknowledged. Some are seeking advice and I always respond. I love that God gave me the ability to share in the written word, almost as though I am speaking directly to the reader. I know what you mean.

I suspect that most people don't think of writing as a real occupation or talent. After all, everyone can do it.
