I’ve just got a thought for you today. You can tell me what you think of it and whether its a line worth expanding: “The only real liquid courage—whether you rely on coffee, liquor, or something else—is the living water of the Holy Spirit.”
Thoughts?
Next week has THREE new Lutheran book releases!! Woo hoo!
I was actually able to get a chunk of writing done yesterday and that felt really good! God-willing, I’ll get a few more chunks of time and work in this week! It’s all just been on the back-burner. Meanwhile, I had a passing thought about Lutheran names. Ignore me if you’d like, but maybe you’d like to hear it. 🙂
My summer reading pile may be particularly eclectic this year. Who knows. I can tell you this, however: there are a bunch of Lutheran books, some of which I’ve been meaning to read for a while. 🙂 I’ll try to keep reviews to every other day at most. Ok? Today’s will be on The Lutheran Ladies’ Circle: Plucking One Stringby Kris Knorr (which is actually a pseudonym for Barb Froman).
The winner of the Wazzlewood Giveaway is Whitney Crowell! Congratulations! Now, all of you, you have got to read my review below. It is for Kloria Publishing‘s latest release, Lord, Thee I Love with All My Heart, illustrated by the fabulously-talented Lutheran Kelly Schumacher.
First, that’s a great title. I could start many a discourse with those words. Today, however, it’s a title of a book. 🙂Bane & Blessingis the first of two books by Lutheran author James Chinery.
Wazzlewood change of plans! You know I’ve been hosting a giveaway. I stand by that. I will give away a free paperback copy to a commenter on this post right here. But major change of plans!!!

The “Meet, Write, and Salutary” blog encourages Lutherans to write. At the same time, maybe this website is better understood as a reading, writing, and resources place.

Sometimes an author or publisher sends me an occasional free book, but I receive no other reimbursement or profit from endorsing or reviewing.

I’ve done it. I’ve come up with a summer writing strategy for myself!
