An award free blog as of July 1, 2015
Your reading, liking, and commenting on my work are my reward!
I love to write! I write poetry, fiction, and more. I love to write about nature, love, farming, and spirituality. I really love other cultures. Lately I have been writing about nature bringing us freedom, healing, and closer to the Creator.
This blog is a creative writing outlet. I have been writing for years but this is the first time I have really gone public with it. To be honest it is exciting! It is not a Christian blog. It is a writing blog made by a Christian. Writing is like art. I like to have a vision and paint a picture with words. My goal is to make something beautiful.
I live on the East Coast, married to the most beautiful woman on the planet. We have raised two children and are constantly amazed at how God has blessed our family!
Thanks for reading my work and being part of my blog!
One lovely blog award is waiting for you here: http://followingthegoldenquill.wordpress.com/2014/10/05/one-lovely-blog-award/
Best wishes.

Euphie I am so honored by this! It is a tremendous honor. I’ve been thinking about how to respond because I don’t usually accept awards. I don’t like promoting myself or drawing attention to myself. I love to write as you know, and I am so blessed by the readers here. I am learning and growing though. May I consider it in the future? Again thank you for this wonderful honor.
That’s perfectly alright.. Even I wasn’t accepting awards until this one 🙂 keep writing
You are awesome!
🙂
Nicodemas: I would like to honor you with the Versatile Blogger Award. Please let me know if you would accept the nomination. You do a wonderful job on so many different topics. You write reviews, fiction, and poetry. You are very versatile, and I feel very deserving of this award.
Tracy thank you so very much for this honor! It is humbling. I recently wrote to a reader that I don’t usually accept awards because of not wanting to draw attention to myself. Is there anything that I would have to do with this award? Again thank you for this wonderful honor!
Not unless you wanted to. It is just a way for colleagues to honor each other. I went the traditional route of acknowledging the person who nominated me with a link to her blog, wrote 7 things about myself so people get to know me a little bit better (anything you want, funny or serious ) and a list of people whom you would like to nominate. Regardless, I think you have an awesome blog, and would not want to put you in an awkward position.
Thanks Tracy!
I don’t see any link to your book. Can you please let me know the link?
Ah! No link yet, I am still working on the book. It may take a little time. I will send it out as a post when it is ready!
Thank you on behalf of Daylight Tune Ministry to like our ministry blog. May our poetry bless your hearts and minds 🙂
Thank you! I look forward to reading more!
Thank you too

Thank you Saadia! Thank you for being part of my blog!

I just wanted to say that I have been following you for a long time, then all of a sudden today I discovered that I was not following you, I know it happens in WP all the time. it has happened to me before, so I just want to say that it was never my intention to unfollow you and I am sorry if you have not seen me here for a while. But now I am back following you again! 🙂 🙂
Trini I am very grateful for your beautiful words. Yes it does happen, to me too and it’s hard to figure out. No need to be sorry, but thank you again. It is an incredible blessing to have you in my neighborhood! Namaste!
🙂 and you in mine! 🙂 ❤

Erika, I am deeply honored! Thank you so much, this is a tremendous blessing. I of course accept but it may take me a few days to pull it together. Blessings to you my friend. You have encouraged me once again! 🙂
So happy I could “inspire” you only through this award. You are doing great work, Sean! It is not always easy to stand behind our convictions! Happy to be connected. Don’t worry, the award is yours whenever you are ready to pass it on 😀
Psst, hey this might be for Sean!
Haha! You are right! 😃 I must have “misclicked”. Sorry! You know what! The content is meant for you anyway! Happy you feel encouraged to keep it up. Would miss your wonderful stories and inspirations!!!

Here is a writing challenge for you if you have time, Nicodemas: http://frommidnighttodawnlight.com/2015/05/13/free-style-writing-challenge/ (you don’t have to link up but I would enjoy hearing your thoughts on the topic).
I appreciate this: “It is not a Christian blog. It is a writing blog made by a Christian.”
Thank you JoAnne! Yes I really don’t like to be evangelized by others, and that’s not my purpose here. I simply love to write poetry, fiction, and nature nonfiction. I also write alot about cultures. Sometimes I put music on. Peace to you.

Hi Nico, I came across this poem today and it reminded me of your love for the Firs Nations: https://wordpress.com/read/post/id/49610363/4412/
Thanks Bella, that was awesome. And very kind of you. I did really like it. I was just listening to some First Nations music.
You’re welcome Nico, glad you liked it! 🙂

I have an interview tag for you. I would be happy if you participated: https://erikakind.wordpress.com/2015/10/06/the-blogger-interview-tag/
Erika this is a great honor! I am so blessed. I don’t normally talk about myself, but will give it a try. The hardest part will nominating others. It will also take a few days for me to finish it! Peace and thanks again.
This now is an honor for me, Nicodemas! Thank you so much for accepting. It is different than just an award and that makes it so special! 🙂
Yes it is. It will take me a few days, but I get there. Peace.
As a fledgling writer and novice blogger I am happy to have found another who understands that a Christian can write without being labeled as an author of a “Christian” blog. I too, am Christian, and that will come out in my writing at times, other times it will not, and both are perfectly acceptable to God. I will enjoy reading your art!
Wonderful to meet you Nomios! Thank you and I look forward to reading your work! Peace.
