I have had two of my books published. "Gifts From God" a collection of poetry I've written throughout my life. And "Defend God's Word" in which I share the knowledge God's word, the Bible, has taught me. I was wondering if there is anyother published authors here? And what have you written?

that is fantastic that your books have been published. I have never had anything published, my talents do not lie in the writing arena hahaha! My brother and my daughter write poetry and my daughter won a poetry contest in her school. So, she is our talented writer here. My brother is still trying to get his works published in a book or magazine. Any advice on that?

My dream for years had been to have my writing published. I was able to get some of my poems in small local newspapers. So that can be a place to start. As far as having a book published, I sent to more publishing companies, and had more rejections then I want to mention. It seems they either want someone that already has a "name", or they want you to pay for them to publish your book. Afew years ago I had fallen off a ladder at work hurting my ankle. It put me out of work for a few months and I used the time to search for a place to publish my book. I found Publish America. They publish your book for free (print on demend type place). You have to be willing to try to push the book.

Good to know about your books published. Congrats and God bless! How much time did you take to write the book. Defend God's word- Is it based on specific book in the bible?

In "Defend God's Word" I try to share what God's Word has shown me about subjects like Prayer, Salvation, Comfort, Jesus, the End Times, and many other subjects. One day I was just messing around and wrote something about Faith. When I was done I liked how it turned out so I wondered if I could write on other subjects. I thought that it would take along time to come up with enough for a book. But once the ideas started to come they just seemed to flow. Before I know it I had my second book. It only took about six months to finish writing the book. This is not based on any one book of the Bible. I have used all of God's Word to inspire this book.

I have published three books so far and working on my forth. I did go through P.A. To Be honest that was the biggest mistake of my life. so now I go through Lulu.com and Word clay DIY Self publishing they are both really great companies if your looking to puiblishing your own work.
