WHERE DO YOU WANT TO BE? By Sophia Anyanwu

 Where do you want to be?

 This is not about your wanting to go to Heaven at the end of your earthly reign. It’s about growth as a Christian writer. I’ve often asked myself: Is this where I want to be?  I praise God for you if your name invokes a buzz or a blast in the writing community locally and afar! That is where I want to be! It’s not being vain. Here are some tips we could apply by God’s special grace. Honestly, I confess that I can be sluggish stepping up! I know that following these tips could help one achieve huge strides in their growth as a Christian writer. Right, let’s see the tips: 

 Don’t be content with words on pages; focus on their impact so readers are influenced by the kingdom message.  

   Ensure professional growth by reaching out to other writers who have hit the mark. 

 Be bold and confident, and worry less that your message might hurt your critics.

4.     Trust that the Holy Spirit will do their bit when you do yours - writing compelling stories that will lead to redemption.

5.     Boost your self-confidence by embracing marketing skills. 

6.     Face any weaknesses by identifying them. Examples: self-pity, procrastination, excuses, time-wasting,  avoiding free online courses,  ignoring the resources that could help your professional growth,  not paying attention to your health, not embracing support from ACW, etc.

I would love for you to add any other tips below. Thank you.

 Now you know where I want to be. Where do you want to be in YOUR writing?

Let’s not forget that ‘ I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. ' – Philippians 4:13
