And thank you for this list. I have only spoken in front of a crowd a few times and my nerves usually get the best of me.

But after reading your ebook, Notes to Aspiring Writers, I will only do those things IF God leads me to. Thanks for reminding me to Listen for Him! I so enjoyed meeting you and I thought you came across as very polished and very qualified when you taught your class. Thanks again for all your insight. You have inspired me with great hope.

Glad that it went well! This year, God is stretching my through the video medium. My pastor encouraged me to tape some of the Bible studies I have written for our church family and then a talented friend offered to help. I DO NOT enjoy being in front of the camera but feel that tug from God that this is the way He wants me to connect with women right now (and be able to connect to more than just those that attend my church). Scary stuff, but when you are following God's call, somehow it all works out in the end. Trembling lip and all :) I was praying for you this weekend, Brooke. Glad that it went well!

When he woke up, his mind was like a baby. He had to re-learn how to read and write again. His speech was very broken English...like hearing a 3 year old speak. But he toured the country speaking of God's goodness and inspired millions of people. Do you know Nick? Look up "Butterfly Circus" :) Moses didn’t think he was too good of a speaker either. ;) I knew a man once who had a serious illness that put him in a coma for a long time.

You are real and you make my dream of writing full-time feel attainable and I love that about you. As for seeking Him first I'm with you - if my eyes lose sight of the cross, I quit blogging for a bit until I get back on track. I seek Him first and if He has plans for me to be a "big" blogger one day, He'll make it happen. I figure I will be content with where He has me right now. Love your humility, Brooke. Well-written.
