Here's your chance: Finish those Writing Prompts!

For those of you still tuning in, I wanted to say that though the Lenten writing project has come to a close, you can STILL post your writing on this blog for any and all of the writing prompts!  They are still open and can still be commented on.  Just...I won't be putting any new ones on for just a tiny break : )

If you haven't already, you can become a 'follower' of this blog (right hand column) and be updated via email every time I post a prompt or writing information (contests, calls for submissions, article links, etc.)  So for those of you who "didn't have time" during Lent (ahem...me), now is your chance to go back and write and post your writing!  Better yet, post it and then send your submissions to ruthellenm@hotmail.com and I will make sure to pass it on to Pastor Larry, who is compiling submissions for our 3rd volume of Spirit to Spirit.  Then you'll be published too!  Done & done.  And so easy.  According to Hemmingway, all you have to do is sit down at the typewriter...and bleed  ; )  Happy writing to everyone and may the spirit-filled muse kindle the passion that is already inside you!

Call for Submissions!

Congratulations to everyone who participated in this blog project by writing, reading and prayer!  This truly was an amazing experience for me and I hope it was for you too.  The Lenten writing project is coming to a close, but we will post prompts and writing news to this blog, so check back to see what opportunities and information we have for you.

Call for Submissions!
All who wrote in this blog or who are interested in writing, Spirit 2 Spirit has a book!  The third volume - a compilation of writers of many genres - will be published this fall and we need YOU (yes, you!) to submit your writing to be in the book.  Poetry, prose, nonfiction, etc. all genres are welcome.  Length is subjective (if it's more than 2 pages, let's talk).  This book is published by the writing group at Holy Spirit Lutheran Church in Kirkland, WA, but we would like to open it up to all writers interested in participating.  If you would like to submit your work, join our writing group or get more information, please email Ruth at ruthellenm@hotmail.com
Past volumes are available on Amazon.com and are:
Spirit to Spirit
Spirit to Spirit II

Happy Writing!  Blessings to all of you and the spirit who inspires you : )
