The American Christian Fiction Writers

I can't explain the ACFW better than they can...the "ACFW is an organization devoted to meeting the needs of new and seasoned authors alike by training in the craft of Christian fiction, educating in the market, and advocating in the traditional Christian fiction publishing industry."

 Membership with the ACFW Association was a HUGE game changer for me, especially when I joined their critique group, Scribes. They also offer online courses (included with membership).

The hemingway App

I love this simple app ... this editing tool identifies grammatical errors and highlights areas of improvement in writing, allowing authors to fix common mistakes and strengthen sentence structures. BTW, I ran this short paragraph through the app for funsies. 😉
