Summary: AN ANSWER TO PRAYER!
Comment: I just received Marlene Bagnull's book, Write His Answer, and can't seem to put it down! Although I am certain about my call to be a Christian writer in my life, I also struggle with feelings of inadequacy. As a striving young Christian writer, the sound advice and tips from this book along with the sound Scripture references have truly been an answer to prayers. God used "Write His Answer" to provide a nudge in my own life to take a more active role as a Christian writer. I recommend this book to any Christian writer.
Rating: 5
Summary: Touching the heart of a writer
Comment: As I began to read Write His Answer, I found myself tracking so closely with Marlene, almost as though I had penned the words, or even more strangely, she was reading my thoughts.
Marlene touches the heart of every Christian writer. She has the pulse of their fears, apprehensions, and deepest need as they seek to follow God's calling to use their gift of writing for his purposes.
This book is practical, spiritually challenging, and great for individual or small group study. The chapters are short,to the point, and have thought provoking questions to discuss or journal through.
Whether it is dealing with procrastination, disappointments, setting goals, or listening to God first, Marlene articulates what the heart longs to hear. This book was instrumental for me finding vision and purpose for my writing. I have had the desire to write for years; I have dabbled in some ways, but now I am becoming more sure of my call to write His answer.

Comment: Rating System:
1 star = abysmal; some books deserve to be forgotten
2 star = poor; a total waste of time

SYNOPSIS: This is a book of 33 short chapters that can be done as part of a person's daily devotional. Chapters include: Called to Write; Overcoming Procrastination; Seek His Kingdom First; Conquering the Deadly D's; Driven or Led?; and Proclaiming Truth to a Dying World
Also included are nine Appendix consisting in part of: Laying a Bible Foundation for Your Writing Ministry; Helps for Forming Critique Groups; and From Idea to Published Manuscript
Amazon.com leads me to believe that Lee Roddy coauthored this book. He only writes the forward, so Roddy fans shouldn't expect more from him.
MY FEEDBACK: I really enjoyed this book. A couple of chapters I felt were slightly cliché and/or close to stretching scripture out of context in order to get a point across, but that was all very minimal and easy to forgive.
Overall, the Lord used this to really speak to me and confirm the direction I've been headed with writing and/or to kick me in the rear about a few things I needed to get better at. I really like the chapter on whether I'm driving myself of my own strength or being led by the Spirit.
Each chapter has a quick example or two so it doesn't get bogged down like many Christian books by being 90% examples and only 10% content. This book I felt was more like 85% content and only 15% examples which made it very enjoyable and able to get right to the point of the chapter.
If you are a writer who is a Christian, whether you write Christian pieces or secular, get this bible study as it is a nice temperature gauge of where you are at with God and what he has called you to really do with your writing.
If you are a Christian thinking about writing as a hobby or ministry get this book as it will set some good foundations for you.
I personally see myself going through this book at least once a year in order to remind myself of a few things I need to keep in mind and stay on track in as I work at the writing God has called me to do.
