Hi Deb, I have just checked into your website which was given in your newsletter to my new church Calvary Baptist, Bremerton,WA ~ Pastor Art Sinski. I have not explored all of your site yet. My interest is in writting for publication. I could not pay the high tuition for a course (even though I passed their “test”) to write for publication. So I was waiting on the Lord for what else to do with that desire that won’t go away.
What do you need from me to see if I would be a possible student for you to mentor? I have self published several books and can tell you about them (or send a couple different ones to you)if that would help you make a decision. I am not good at fiction. Just real life and technical things. Sincerely in Christ our Lord,

Hi Deb, I just want to thank you for sharing your knowledge about writing and your enthusiasm in your faith. I am working on both! I am a ‘new writer’ and heard about your site through ‘Bec’s’ and the pilot creative writing people at SIT Invercargill. Thanks again. Katrina.
Comment by Katrina Harrison January 16, 2009 @ 3:33 amHi Dorie. Thanks for your question about mentoring. I plan to address this question in my Encouragement for Writers blog next week. Until then, I recommend you order Ethel Herr’s book “An Introduction to Christian Writing” which is listed under Books I Recommend under my Writers’ Circle. If you want to send me a list of your books and a short description of each, I can look at the things you like to write about. Please send these to my normal email address: brammers@woosh.co.nz.
Comment by debbrammer January 16, 2009 @ 2:33 pmDeb, I’m so glad to find your site. Well done! It’s great to hobnob with other authors in our circle. I’ll be checking your site frequently for advice and other helpful info. Let’s definitely stay in touch.
Comment by Adam Blumer January 20, 2009 @ 3:29 amHi Deb,
Your website was given to me by my Pastors wife who recently read 2 of my short stories. I am not sure if they are good enough or even if I have good enough writing skills to be thinking on getting my items published. Would it be possible to email you the 2 (very) short stories I have. To receive your feedback would be much appreciated. Also I am over in Scotland so not sure if you know anyone in the UK I could send items to for publishing over here. In our Saviours name, Thank you.
Comment by Michelle Sauerwald June 6, 2009 @ 1:42 amHi Michelle. Thanks for writing. I will send you my email address separately so that you can send your articles. I will take a quick look at them and see where you are. You will want to look at my January 19, 2009 blog called “Can I Mentor You?” It is under “Encouragement for Writers” under “Writer’s Circle.” Also the best way to begin is by reading all of my writing articles and working to put those principles into practice. I can also put you on my writers’ mailing list if you like. That will notify you when I post something new of interest to writers.

I just found your website listed in the Faith Witness. This may be an answer to prayer! Every week I open my church bulletin, read our adult paper and often think, “I could do this!” Along with that, I have numerous friends encouraging me to “do” something with my writing, but I haven’t really had any direction or any “how to” knowledge on how to proceed. And of course, I’m hampered by time contraints and my own fear of failure, which is probably pretty common with all would-be writers.
Anyway, I just wanted to thank you for this site and express my excitement over finding it. I plan to schedule “Deb” breaks into my days so that I can study here and learn just what it is that I need to do in order to share my writing with others.

Comment by debbrammer July 1, 2009 @ 8:27 pmThis is a response to someone asking for the music to “Watchman, What of the Night?” It is public domain music that goes with a song I wrote for “No Room for Jesus,” my Christmas play published by Standard Publishing: I have this song scanned in three separate bmp files that are rather large. I can either attach these files and send them to you by email or, if you prefer, I can mail a hard copy directly to you and you can send US$3.00 to our daughter in Minnesota. (We would mail them from New Zealand.) What would you prefer?
