Area(s) of Interest or Expertise:
I am working on my first novel and have written a couple of short stories.
My Testimony: (We encourage members to share briefly about how their faith in Christ has impacted their lives.)
A year and a half ago I lost my son to a bike accident. Since then I have true felt God's love in so many way. From the outpouring of our friends and church, to the peace that he has given me in the mists of my misery. I believe that God has been speaking through my writing; speaking to me and to those that have been reading my blogs and short stories
Dream Job: (If you could have your dream job in the comics industry, what would it be?)
I would like to find a graphics artist to work with. Someone who could but image to my thoughts and words.
Favorite Comic Creators:
I don't have one yet

"Hi Martin,
I like the style of "Apple of My Eye". I also really like you Mosses.
I'm working on another draft of the story and will sent it to you when I'm done - probably next Tuesday.
God bless,
Doug"

"I'll be there. My kids love it and I have a good time too. If you need someone at the table, I'm sure I'll have time to do a shift."

"Hi Mark,
How large to you want the logo? (inches and resolution)
Do you want a two color logo, or multi color?
Any other guidance?

I'd like to hear your reaction to the blog for my cleric. There are only two posts so far, but I think some deep thoughts.

Hi ya, I know you like Christian comics so I know you'll love The Word for WORD Bible Comic, (Unabridged, historically accurate graphic novel of the Bible with a high view of scripture. For ages 15+)
To complete the first book I need your help, as I am raising funds on Kickstarter. My passion is to get God's Word in full into the hands of young believer and unbelievers and comic lovers of all ages, in the hope they will come to really know God. Please check it out at the KS page, it's going well but I still need lots of backers so I hope as a CCAS member you'll please pledge to support this project...

He is an excerpt:
I’ve started blog sites for four of the five main characters in my novel, I’ll get the last one up one of these days. It has been interesting process, and I think helpful as a writer too. I have tried to make each blog site different, reflecting the personality of the character. It has also been interesting writing blogs for each of them. Blogs, or in the case journal entries, can be very personal things. I’m trying to let that personality show in each entry.
...
I think that the process of blogging for my characters and been a two edges sword. I think I can write better in their voices for having done it. I think my novel will be better for it. I have started to build much deeper backstories for each of them. But, it has taken time. Time that I could have been spending writing the novel.
In the end I think I’m glad that I’m doing the extra work. If writing was my money making job, then it might be the wrong choice. Since it is just a passion, a way to share my life, and my own personal therapy, then it is probably the right thing to do.
I would love to have my novel done, but in the end, for me, it is all about letting these characters speak through me. Whether they speak through a novel or a blog site really doesn’t matter. It is the sharing and exploring that is helpful to me.

Consider the words of C.S. Lewis:
"If there lurks in most modern minds the notion that to desire our own good and to earnestly hope for the enjoyment of it is a bad thing, I suggest that this notion has crept in from Kant and the Stoics and is no part of the Christian faith. Indeed, if we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that our Lord finds our desires, not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling around with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at sea. We are far too easily pleased."
