Writing Prayers Based on Scripture
How might you write prayers based on the Bible? In this webinar with missionary and author Andy Smith, we’ll look at the spiritual exercise of writing prayers based on Bible passages as developed by Archbishop Thomas Cranmer. We’ll pray several such prayers and write a prayer together. You’ll also have the opportunity to write a few prayers of your own.

Mastering Emotion and Symbolism in Writing
Powerful page-turning and dynamic novels are bathed in undeniable emotions. Emotions usher in sensory perception and gather word choices, symbols, body language, and various literary techniques to show a distinct character embracing a story world. The core of your story is the intimacy of a character internalizing and processing the world around them. This webinar will show you how to create emotions that are in character, show credibility and the various ways to invite your reader into the story.
