Writers, here's a new book for you to take a look at:
A powerful motivator for aspiring writers, Grit for the
Oyster offers wit, wisdom, and inspiration to take that first step and
persevere through the writing journey. More than a how-to, this
confidence-building book is designed to draw readers to a closer relationship
with God, to affirm their calling to write, and to offer pithy practical
guidance from successful writers like Terri Blackstock, Martha Bolton, James
Scott Bell, Liz Curtis Higgs, Dr. Gary Chapman, and David Kopp.
"A treasure trove of encouraging words for writers..." New York Times Bestselling Author, Terri Blackstock
Read about the Authors
Suzanne Woods Fisher is a bestselling author of Amish fiction and non-fiction. Her interest in the Amish began with her grandfather, who was raised Plain in Franklin County, Pennsylvania. She travels back east a couple of times each year for research. For fun, too.
Suzanne has a great admiration for the Plain people and believes
they provide wonderful examples to the world. She has an underlying belief in
her books–you don’t have to “go Amish” to incorporate many of their principles
into your life: simplicity, living with less, appreciating nature, forgiving
others more readily, trusting in God.
When Suzanne isn’t writing, playing tennis, or bragging to her
friends about her grandbabies (so cute!), she is raising puppies for Guide Dogs
for the Blind. Readers can learn more about Suzanne by visiting her website at www.suzannewoodsfisher.com.
