“My aim is to put down on paper what I see and what I feel in the best and simplest way.” ~ Ernest Hemingway.We writers love words, and we love to use the long, impressive words. But when we use too many of them, and ones that aren’t familiar and comfortable to the average person, then words just get in the way.The words we really should be using most of the time are already known to us. Crisp, clear, accessible words in our writing bring joy to the readers even if they may not know why.In this book you’ll see just what can happen when 69 Christian writers break their attachment to multi-syllable words and get back to the familiar words of childhood, simple words like brave, true, loyal, love, and joy.Some of the stories you’ll find here are serious; some are not. Some might cause a slight smile or quiet chuckle to bubble to the surface; others might cause a laugh to shoot up like a grand old geyser. Some stories invite deep reflection; others just let you be. Some reveal much; others reveal little. Sometimes the creativity is subtle; other times it is easily seen.In one way or another all of the stories are powerful. And with a few exceptions, their words are all one syllable.Contributors: Sandy Aletraris, Karen O.
