RIP Walt Staples

Many of you know Walt Staples from the Guild and online conferences.  I’m saddened to have to tell you that he died Wednesday afternoon, March 14, of natural causes.

Members: We Need You!

You can probably guess from the topic and from that fact that it’s from me, that this is a call for volunteers.  It seems that my purpose in the Guild, whether as founder, President, or Committee Coordinator, has been to beg for people to help with our projects.  Maybe one day, I’ll work myself out […]

Why 30K For Christ?

So what is theme, and how can it help focus and clarify […]

Ask and it Will be Given to You

However don’t be put off by the writer part, because the devotion is chock full of ideas for life and not just for writers. As mentioned in the previous devotion feel free to share […]
