Looking for a new devotional? WORDS TO WRITE BY is a compilation of different authors as they share the Scripture or quotation that they’ve found inspiring to their writing. Geared toward writers, the devotionals touch on all aspects of the writing life: basic motivation, rejection, publishing, and succeeding.

The devotionals are short (some are only one page) but thought provoking. I especially enjoyed some of the devotionals penned by some of my favorite authors, but even the ones written by people I didn’t know where good.

Some of the contributors include:

Lauralee Bliss Kathy Ide
Andrea Boeshaar Loree Lough
Margaret Daly Cecil Murphey
Jill Eileen Smith Molly Noble Bull
Gail Gaymer Martin Deborah Raney
Robin Lee Hatcher Carolyn R. Scheidies
Anita Higman Sally Stuart

I enjoyed spending time with the Lord with these devotionals. All of them had something to consider, not only in relation to the writing life, but also life in general.

If you are looking for a devotional, then WORDS TO WRITE BY is definitely one to look at. Available on-line at www.trebleheartbooks for $11.50 180 pages.
