I too love to write and even more so to use my gifts for the Lord, but for some reason I just have never joined the <I>cyberspace</I> forces yet when it comes to vocalizing my thoughts daily. So, if there is anyone who could help me and give me advice as how to get started please feel free to let me know.<BR/>Also, I was doing a search on writing contests for the holidays and came across your link Terri. I checked it out and that site seems to be so inspirational. Now, for the rules. I wanted to be sure about the word length. You mentioned 200 words and I think someone else said 250. So, what is the word limit for sure? I didn't know how to figure 1000 words character wise on my own,ha, sorta like blogging,Yikes! LOL. Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Yes, I need to learn how to blog asap to release all these wordy thoughts and feelings, don't I?<I>chuckle!</I> God bless all of you.
