Happy First Anniversary!!


Happy anniversary, dear readers! A year ago today Seriously Write launched for Christian writers as a place to encourage, support, and even give you a place to share your articles on writing with other writers. What a year it’s been! Many talented authors have visited to share how-tos and their journeys with us.

Along the way, a wonderful thing happened: over and over, we found readers encouraged by posts here at SW. Advice and interaction flowed between visiting authors and readers.

As a hostess and one who contributes blog posts, I found God inspiring my posts just at the time I, myself, needed the information. *grin* Then, I’d occasionally hear from others who’d been encouraged, too. Isn’t it great how God works like that?

Dawn and I both enjoyed connecting with fellow authors who graciously contributed to our specially themed days.

Speaking of which . . .

Big news: We’re excited to announce that we’ll soon have a new hostess. She’s one of the members of our critique group (McCrit), and a good friend. She’s also a newly published author (in 2009 & 2010). She’s visited before to share her journey story, and she’ll be a regular on Manuscript Mondays through the summer. But her official day is Wednesday coming in mid- to late summer. A round of virtual applause for Ocieanna Fleiss!!

We’re so grateful for everyone’s involvement. As always, if you’d like to contribute a craft article, or your own journey to publication, leave a comment, and we'll connect with you there. We’d love to hear from you.

We’re always looking for ways to improve SW, so if there’s a topic you’d like to see addressed, or a Christian author you’d love to hear from, let us know and we’ll see what we can do. We want to help and encourage you as a writer.

Here’s to another year full of connecting writers at a place where wisdom, advice, experience, and support can be shared.

Happy First Anniversary!!
