“Creative Writer” Blogger Award
As you have seen below, we’ve been tagged for a “Creative Writer” Blogger Award. The rules are”
• Thank the person who gave this to you. (Takk (Thank you) to Loren Eaton of “I Saw Lightning Fall.” Be sure your sins will find you out.)
• Copy the logo and place it on your blog.
• Link to the person who nominated you.
• Tell up to six outrageous lies about yourself, and at least one outrageous truth – or – switch it around and tell six outrageous truths and one outrageous lie.
• Nominate seven “Creative Writers” who might have fun coming up with outrageous lies.
• Post links to the seven blogs you nominate.
• Leave a comment on each of the blogs letting them know you nominated them.
I’m tempted to plagiarize this, but I guess I won’t.
- My only trip out of the U.S. has been for a tryst in Argentina.
- I used to work at the post office, but I spent my time writing instead of delivering the mail.
- I went spelunking several years ago, slipped on the rope, and fell 30-40 feet.
- I used to own a Prius before the radio got stuck on Air America and wouldn’t turn off.
- I currently advise the next president of the United States.
- I can “hear” the scream of murder inside a person’s heart from miles away. (You get used to it.)
Now, who else might enjoy this award?
- J.R. Caines of Books & Films
- Emily of Lost in an uncharted sea
- Phil and Bird of Thinklings
- Carrie of Reading to Know
Really, there’s no need to thank me.

Editorial Arrogance
Matthew Paul Turner talks about the abusive publisher of CCM magazine and how he was assigned to solicit an apology from Amy Grant for her divorce from Gary Chapman.
