Produktbeschreibung
How do faith-based writers effectively communicate the presence and love of God in a postmodern, increasingly secular and technological world? How do they maintain a commitment to their truth tradition while orienting toward unfolding future possibilities? How do they keep their writing fresh and healthy? Using garden metaphors and narrative storytelling, Catherine Lawton explores answers to these questions and more. The author herself is a seasoned writer and publisher-and avid gardener. Written in a blend of memoir, research, and poetic styles, this book will inspire both beginning and long-published writers. Chapters discuss five aspects of what Lawton calls "organic writing and publishing": SOAK. Both writer and reader are part of ecosystems. Does the water deaden or enliven? SPOKE. Experiment, learn, communicate with postmodern techniques. Words have power! EVOKE. Enchant with imagination, invoke the transcendent in the imminent and earthy. PROVOKE. Surprise and awaken readers. Write to prompt healthy thought, faith and action. STOKE. Keep stoking "fires" of awareness by creatively taking your "produce" to market. The Appendices offers practical, useful tips: Publishing Models The Publishing Process Marketing for Introverts
