Finding Your Path

I can promise you that taking the time to explore faith will only lead to exciting things in your life.  When I first started writing The PriVILEged I had no idea what faith was and I was 33 years old.  A funny thing about 33.  I had no idea that the same age when Jesus died would be the same time when my life would come crashing down to point of my own death.  It was then that I said, "I don't want to die but then again I really don't want to live." I had no idea what was happening to me.  I'd seen myself since middle school age being someone special with gifts and talents that would carry me through the rest of my days.  As faith would have it, I was heading South on the freeway when I should have been heading North.  I'd been moving in a direction of sadness and despair when I was supposed to be moving in a direction of joy and excitement.  But like the driver heading South on the freeway who learns that he'd missed the exit, he had to find the next off ramp and come to a complete stop before he could turn around and move in the right direction.  If my life hadn't been moving at such a fast pace, I might have been introduced to my purpose much sooner, but because I couldn't do it on my own, it would take the hands of faith to show me ten years later that there was a place for me and my talents after all but designed in such a way that I would never again question who I am as a mystery writer. Checkout what I'm talking about and read for free the first three chapters of The PriVILEged.  I've tried to send out this book on my own and it simply hasn't worked.  What the book needs is your faith in me.  This is the only way my purpose will move forward.  As I've done with my faith, I will leave the decision in your hands.  JW
