Christian heist author and old Romantic Times Reviewer alumn, Jill Elizabeth Nelson stops by to give New Year's Writing Resolutions to us during our 1 Question Author Interview Winter Series. The Reluctant Smuggler, her third installment of To Catch a Thief trilogy hits newstansd this month.The question: What did you do for your spiritual ife in '07 that improved your writing?
Hi, Dee:
Thanks for the opportunity to answer your blog question.
In the past year, I took inventory of my commitments in order to make room for my writing ministry in a packed schedule. As much as I have loved ministering to the children in my church, I found out it was to their advantage, as well as my own, to pass the baton to someone else. Now I have much-needed to time stay connected with the Lord by fellowshipping with Him in the Word and prayer, and I can faithfully fulfill the writing assignments that keep coming my way. The children's ministry at my church has a new, on-fire head to lead them to the next level in God. It's always win-win to do what you're supposed to do, rather than what you think you ought to do.
Joyful New Year!
