More on The Book (Bible Illuminated)
Closed Published by Jonathan Dodson December 10th, 2008 on Creation ProjectYou may have read my earlier post on this new glossy, magazine style Bible called The Book. My friend Trey has some thoughtful reflections on The Book from both an artistic and theological perspective. Check it out.
Ever feel uncomfortable carrying your leather Bible around? Now you don’t have to. The Book is a glossy, magazine-style version of the New testament filled with modern images to illuminate the ancient text. Everything from Coca-cola to Angelina Jolie, all in your New testament–the Good News translation or TEV.

Well, to update those of you that were wondering about that book I made this big deal about for 30 days…
I finished it, as far as that contest goes. And I even let my mom read it. This might come as a surprise to you, but she was very supportive.
So, all that’s left now, is […]
I can FEEL it.
It’s so close, it’s scary.
That’s all I can think of to say. Tomorrow, I will be telling you words I have been waiting years to say.
I WROTE A BOOK.
(That was the practice run, of course)
Yes, a whole book. A novel. 50,000 words, 11 chapters, three points of view.
This […]
In the words of Borat, “This book is good not.”
I’m a little lost. Where was I? Did I already write about this? Where is that one part? What happens next? Are we in a comedy or tragedy? Who wants a happy ending? Where’s my coffee? Does this computer have a spell check or what? How do you forget how […]
It’s worse than sabotage! ABC has an internet website where you can watch TV. I’ve seen episodes of, well, everything. There’s only like two commercials an episode, and it’s like crack and I can’t stop. Remember that kickaballwas Thursdays? Well, that killed theentire new season of Grey’s Anatomy for me (don’t tell anyone - when […]
I’m almost done. Not with the word count, but with the story. I busted out about 6000 words in the past day and a half, and realized that that barely puts me half way to the word count goal, and I’ve pretty much told my story. How is this possible? I again, know that sometimes […]
Why I write. No, why I want to write
Closed Published by The CK November 12th, 2006 on Some Go SoftlyWe went and saw Stranger than Fiction. What a cool movie. It reminded me why I’m doing all this. Why I quit my job, why I am trying to get 50,000 words on paper in 30 like 15 days. I think like a book.
Believe me I know that I am perpetually inarticulate and surface in […]
I have once again spent a day not writing. We went to a “Hollyweird” Anniversary Party last night at a production studio, but I was still up at 8 am. Whoo me, right? Well, we decided to go get groceries and breakfast tacos (Rudy’s Rules!!!) and clean the house and watch three hours of football.

My main character (MC in the cool world of writer’s lingo) doesn’t currently have a job. Or a love interest. Or a pet. She bought a car…that’s all I got.
I’m creeping right up on 15,000 words and I’m spent. I’ve got a couple of things I really like about this book right now. I have […]
