Who is your target audience?

The more I produce Bible studies, the more I realize the necessity of identifying my target audience and writing with them in mind.

I have finally decided that the Christians I am primarily writing for are those who aren't called to a preaching or teaching ministry, but still want a more in-depth understanding of scripture. My goal is to help believers move beyond Bible basics and transition into deeper studies. My Bible art journaling studies, however, are specifically for women.

I would like to know who other writers in the Christian market are writing for. Put it out there!

Creative non-fiction in another way

I truly hope I am in the right group. I write Bible studies and other Christian books designed to teach, but my mind goes into non-traditional rooms when I write, so maybe it really can be called Creative Non-Fiction.

Right now I'm working on a book explaining the Book of Job. Most of my work is intended to simplify biblical concepts for those who are just beginning to study scripture. Since I "see pictures" when I read, I try to convey what I have seen into the mind of the reader.

Don't know what else to say, but happy to be here.

Writing Every Day

I am working on writing every day. A while back I purchased a book, "Write the Story." Piccadilly, Inc. published it. Looks like it has 365 pages for each day of the year. Each page provides a title and includes 10 words. The rest of the page, lines to write. You guessed it: Write based on the title, making sure you use the 10 words in your short story. Awesome way to "Just Write."

Any takers?
