Celebrating One Year of A Writer's Pen

    Nine days ago, A Writers Pen celebrated its one-year anniversary!
    In light of this momentous occasion, you may have noticed a change to the title of this site. To celebrate the first-year mark of this blog, A Writer's Pen now has its own official logo, along with the tagline "Do All Things To the Glory of God", derived from 1 Corinthians 10:31.
    This logo has been in the works behind the scenes for months, so I'm thrilled to finally have it up!
    
    It's hard to believe that an entire year has passed since I first released this site! Though there have been small adjustments here and there, A Writer's Pen is still on the same mission that it began a year ago: to help and encourage writers in using their pen to the glory of God.
    I'd like to extend my gratitude to the readers of this site, who have been an encouragement and blessing to me through the journey of A Writer's Pen.
    Here's to another year!
    ~Madelyn

    (The appearance of the logo is still in the process of being straightened out. If you encounter any issues, please report them to madelyn.awriterspen@gmail.com. Thank you!)

Words

Words Dazzling stars  On a white paper sky. More precious than jewels. Delighting the eye. Like many colored pencils  That shape a work of art. They flow softly like moonbeams  Or pierce through the heart. Like brightly colored beads  Waiting to be strung. To be taken and put on paper Or slide off the tongue. To be carefully connected  In a design well thought out, And have life flow through them  Without reluctance or doubt. To spread warmth through the heart  Of whoever may see Them as the beautiful formation  The author created them to be. ~Madelyn B.

3... 2... 1... Liftoff!

     Bonjour! Good day!      Here we are, the very first post of A Writer's Pen. If all goes to plan, I will be posting here every Monday (Update: this has since switched to every other Thursday) . My hope for this blog is that I will be able to help and encourage other writers through their courageous venture through the exhilarating (and at times, quite grueling) process of picking up the pen!      They say that " The pen is mightier than the sword" . And I'm sure anyone who has wielded one will agree that, at times, it certainly feels as heavy as a sword! Many of us may remember beginning to feel that first spark of a writer inside of us. For most, it was fanned by a passionate love of reading. But once you picked up that pen (or, let's be honest, opened that laptop) then, bam . Just like that. Gone is the idea of carelessly writing out half a dozen chapters without pause. In place of that is the knowledge of the painsta...

Flash Fiction Contest!

     It seems that Thursday has come and gone without a post on A Writer's Pen . My apologies!      I have a bit of a surprise in today's post. One that I've stored in my idea vault for quite some time and been longing to do. So without further ado...  I will be hosting a flash fiction contest on this blog!        Let's get into the specifics...      To start off, I'd better define "flash fiction". Flash fiction a very short piece of fiction. It could be a story or a mere glimpse   into a much bigger picture. Flash fiction is one of my favorite things to write, so I'm thrilled to be doing this contest!      How To Enter           Write a story based off of this picture:      (Fun fact: I took this photo in our fire pit with a clock key and a flower from one of our flower pots)      Send it to me by the due date (see Rules). Please includ...
