Greetings

Day 1
This is my first blog. After watching a movie about a writer who started a blog about the joy of cooking, I decided to give it a try. I'm usually a very private person, so this is a stretch for me.
What will I include in my blog, I wondered. Well, I'm a writer so I decided to start documenting my journey as I write my first feature movie. Like the character in the movie I just watched, I will document my journey on this blog as I begin writing the screenplay, and will continue to blog for one year from today, August 20, 2009, as the screenplay progresses from the written page to the big screen.
Why did I choose the title for this blog? I'm a Christian and I'm a writer, so the title expresses two areas in my life about which I am very passionate. Another passion is motherhood. I have a thirteen-year-old son but that's a whole new blog topic : )
Welcome to the journey. Please share your comments and experiences as we begin. I'll work on the screenplay each day, and write my experiences each day on this blog. I am making a one-year commitment to this project, so please, join me on this wonderful adventure.
Joy
