Today is a special day on my blog… one year ago, I started this website and posted my first article, entitled “Intro to Plots and Character Arcs.” (Actually, it was a year ago last Wednesday, but I decided to wait until today to celebrate.)
If you are a regular reader on this blog, I can’t thank you enough for supporting me on this journey. And if you aren’t, I would encourage you to subscribe to my email list and interact with me in the comments. I love having discussions with my fellow writers, readers, and movie enthusiasts!
I’ve come a long way as a writer in the past year… in more ways than one. For starters, I’ve finished two short stories and a novella, which you can read for free by visiting the “My Writing” page of this website, or by clicking the link here. And while you’re on the page, make sure to check out some of my other original short stories and poems.
I have also started a YouTube channel, as well as Instagram and Facebook accounts, where I post tons of bonus content. You can find all of my social media accounts above my profile picture on either the “Home” page or “Blog” page of this website. Otherwise, you can click the links below. Make sure to subscribe and follow me to stay updated!
Since starting this blog, I’ve pretty much posted every week—and sometimes twice a week—so I have quite a bit of material in the archives. I recently organized the posts into categories to make them easier to find, so make sure to check them all out… they’re located on the sidebar of the “Blog” page.
There are several series I’ve started during the past year. If you enjoy more theological posts, you might want to try my study of the book of Judges, or my series on the story of humanity. If you like story theory, my series on the Positive Change Arc is a good choice.
Some of my ongoing series are my Flat Arc series (which is a sequel series to the Positive Change Arc series), my series on how to write supporting characters, and also the Hymns of the Month series.
If you’re looking for something season-appropriate, I would recommend checking out my holiday-themed posts. I have a fun summer post coming soon, so stay tuned for that!
Still can’t find a post that interests you? Don’t worry, there are a few more options to choose from. First, you can subscribe to my blog email notification every time a new post comes out… I have some pretty cool stuff planned in the future that you won’t want to miss. Secondly, you can check out my list of hidden gems—non-categorized posts—and pick the one that interests you the most.
As far as what you can expect in the future on this blog, I plan to continue posting about once a week. I’m working on a pretty big project at the moment, but it might be quite a while until that comes out. Until then, be sure to follow me on social media to get the most recent updates!
Overall, this first year on my blog has been a good one, and I hope for many more to come. Praise God for all He has helped me accomplish… it’s my prayer that this blog will not only provide great content for writers and readers, but also that it will strengthen any fellow followers of Christ and shine the light of the gospel to this dark world.
If you could help me out by spreading the word about this blog, I would appreciate it! I plan to self-publish novels in the future, so any extra exposure would be a great way to support me. My content is for readers, writers, movie lovers, and really anyone who enjoys learning more about Jesus. If you know someone who might be interested in these genres, be sure to recommend my blog to them!
Again, thank you for supporting me this past year… I’m excited to see what the Lord has planned for this blog in the coming years! Until then, keep writing, reading, and praising God!
