Connect with the Source of all Creativity Writing is a solitary art. Or so they say. And maybe it is, for some. The best writing, however, is a partnership. A dance. A duet between the writer and the Word. Many have discovered that the writing task changes--and inspiration heightens--when the writer consciously and purposefully partners with God in the creative process. Prayers for Writers is designed to help that happen. The 100 prayers in this book will help any writer--hobbyist or professional, beginning to advanced, novelists, academic writers, technical writers, writers for children, and more--to make prayer a daily part of their writing routine. These prayers are just what every faith-based writer needs. – Jerry B. Jenkins, NY Times bestselling author Connect with the Source of all Creativity Writing is a solitary art. Or so they say.

And yet I must try to find words that will bring into being something that has never been before. Help me, Lord. Inspire me. Empower me. Flow through me. Grant that I may write better than I can write, and thus know that all the honor and glory and thanks belong to you, in Jesus' name, amen.
