Family Literacy in the Digital Age
by Tyora Moody

Books. From the time I was four years old, I can remember being enchanted with books. My mom gifted me with a membership in the I Can Read Book Club. I don’t remember how often the books were shipped, but I do remember reading them over and over again until I received a new shipment. The day I received a library card, you would have thought I struck gold. It’s a good thing the library was within walking distance, because I would carry stacks of books home and then pour over them for days, especially during the summer vacations. I’ve always had a thirst for knowledge and adventure. You can find those two things and much more in a book.

Story Structure: Beginnings
by Tyora Moody

In The Beginning …

Anyone familiar with the first chapter of the first book in the Bible, Genesis, will recall these three words. While simple, the words in one breath, dramatically draw the reader’s attention into a powerful event. With further reading, God is center stage and He "speaks" the world into existence. As a writer, it should be noted the power of words, and especially the awesome task of writing the beginning or if you want to think in theatrical terms, Act I.

Dear Sistahs-- there are 7 of us Christian writers with a blog that I believe can be helpful to other writers -- especially those who are working on novels. Please drop by www.novelmatters.blogspotcom and tell us what you think, ask questions, etc. We are all published authors.

Getting to Know Your Character

“I want to write a book.” How many times have you heard someone make that statement? Maybe it’s one of your deepest desires in life. For me, I had a mid-thirties moment. It wasn’t anything major like a mid-life crisis where one loses their senses. This was more of a clarifying moment in my life where I believe God planted a few seeds.

I’m no gardener, but if someone gave me a packet of seeds without a label, out of curiosity I might plant them to see what I would get. That’s kind of what I did a few years ago. I took some recurring thoughts (seeds) and scribbled them down in my journal. Over a period of time, I expanded these ideas into scenes and chapters. I started several books and currently have two manuscripts under my belt. For this article, I’m focusing on the first manuscript mainly because it took me two and half years to write.
