Hey y'all! My name is Sydney Witbeck. I published my first book, A Journey To Unshakable Faith, (https://www.ajourneytounshakablefaith...) about a year and a half ago now. I love spending time curled up with a favorite book, writing my own, and hanging out with my sisters! This year I'm graduating from homeschool and am currently pursuing an Associate's Degree in Creative Writing, so I squeeze in working on my sequel when I can find the time. (Just finished chapter 2....)
First and foremost, I want my goal as an author to be to promote the Lord and His wonderful message of salvation to unworthy sinners!

Thank you so much, Anne-Marie. I pray that God would be able to use me, even if it's just to reach 1 person.

Blessings from here in South Carolina! :)

Riley G. | 2 comments Hello, Sydney! Congrats on graduating! (I'll be graduating next year)

I hope your writing journey goes well, and don't forget to seek God's help when things get difficult! Prayer is the best for motivation and guidance in writing. 😊

Thank you! What you said reminded me of something recently that was so impactful. Basically, I was in this discussion for school about combating writer's block. There were a lot of the usual tips: take a break, work on a different section, brainstorm, etc, etc.
And then one person said, when you're stuck , you should go to God in prayer and ask for help! That was so powerful!

Sandra Barker | 29 comments I just checked out your website and I'm so impressed! Your book cover and the blurb are very professional and make me want to read your book - even though I'm sure I'm older than your grandmother! I'm a writer too and I have a granddaughter Marisa (age 13), who is interested in writing and would be very inspired by what you have done thus far. You have certainly accomplished a LOT at your age and I applaud you for what you have done. Even more impressive is your devotion to God and seeking His will. Stay on His path and there is no limit to what He can do through you! Sandra Julian Barker at sandra-ramblingrose.blogspot.com

Sandra,
Thank you SO much! Your comment was so encouraging to me, and I love meeting fellow writes who are followers of Jesus! Truly, without Him (and the amazing family He has blessed me with) this book could not have been written. I would love to check out some of your books as well! Have a great day and God bless

Kaytlin,
Thank you, thank you, thank you for the encouraging comments!! That means a lot to me :)
You're publishing a book, too?! That is GREAT! When you get it out, I would love to read it! What is it about?
Grace & Peace,

Of course, it all looks so professional!
Yes, I have ARCs open on right now! If you're interested I can get you a link to the form. It officially releases May 25th! It's a MG fantasy about a deaf archer who wants to help in the war against the dragons, but can't because of his disability. Sort of a story of hope and purpose.
Bless!
Kayti P.
