Welcome to Writing for Christ Patricia Bradley, it is great to have you
here! So you’re a writer? What made you decide to start creating characters and
story world?
It all started when I couldn’t
sleep. These people came to live in my head and they were quite entertaining.
Suddenly, I didn’t mind that I couldn’t sleep. Then I wrote their story down
and Woman’s World bought it.
What is the one title that has significantly impacted your life?
The Bible. I know you’ve heard it
before, but when I started reading through the Bible in Chronological order 9
years ago, I gain such a wonderful understanding of God’s love and mercy. It
changed my life.
If you could get a do-over when it came to learning this whole thing
called writing, what would you go back and tell yourself?
Connect with other writers and
craft teachers. I wrote in a vacuum for 20 years because I didn’t
reach out and
didn’t have the Internet. So I stagnated in my learning. It’s only been since
I’ve made connections with people like Susan May Warren and the My Book Therapy
team and community that I grew as a writer.
5 preference questions:
Homemade or take-out? Depends on
whether it’s my homemade.
Email or snailmail? Email!
Online shopping or Black Friday
deals? I shop online all the time, but I also LOVE Black Friday. There’s
something about all that energy at the malls.
Books or movies? Books, hands
down.
Note-taker or memorization?
Memorization? You do have to be kidding…right? Although I have been memorizing
scripture again. For years I thought I couldn’t, but I’m adding about 4 verses
a month to my memory.
Yes, I’m asking you to play favorites…which of your books is your
favorite, published or unpublished? And if this is your debut novel, has your
favorite been published yet?
My favorite book is the last one I
finished. J
And it will come out next spring. Of course, that may change with I finish with
my current book.
