It's wonderful to discover a great blog about writers and to read a post by a fellow Aussie. I'm just being introduced to the writing world and I'm on a steep learning curve but one that I am enjoying immensely. I'm going to take a look at your writer's creed right now Paula. I'm still trying to get my head around how and what God has made me to write. I loved what you said Elaine about writing the message that God equips us to share with others.
