...and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.

Painted on the Page

I just received my first paycheck for my freelance writing. I wrote for a newspaper five years ago, and then somehow it stopped and I always wanted to get back in but the opportunity never presented itself. I guess it just wasn't the right time. Until now.

Since August, I've been back with the paper writing features stories about community people and happenings. My name has been printed in the byline, and my words painted on the page. And now, I am officially making money as a writer.

Praise be to the God of beautiful things! You have no idea how wonderful this feels.
