Book Description
Moms don't have a lot of time. In fact, they might only have two minutes alone in the bathroom while little Jamie pounds on the door, crying, "Alex hit me!" As such, this book is for moms who need a truckload of encouragement in a very short amount of time. We may not have the space in our lives to finish that parenting book or get a degree in child psychology, but we don't have to in order to be good moms. This book is filled with pep talks, poems, lessons, and stories to remind mothers what the Lord offers us and how to use God's gifts in the day-to-day grind. Read it whenever you're discouraged or disheartened and have a minute to catch your breath. I pray it turns your eyes again and again to the only one who gives us the power to be great moms. Make no mistake. God meant you to be able to do this! _____________________________ Moms are my heroes. In this book, Abigail helps us give our kids the best gift: an attentive full heart. --Jan Johnson, author of Growing Compassionate Kids These are the feelings, struggles, and questions that we all deal with as moms but often are afraid to admit because we think we're the only ones. Abigail's refreshing, often humorous, Pep Talks take you on a gentle yet profound journey to the feet of Jesus. --Heidi Garside, homeschooling mom of seven Abigail's reflections on motherhood are beautifully communicated and full of deep insight and honesty. She tackles the daily joys and concerns that all mothers experience while pointing us directly toward the empowering rest that is found in intimacy with Christ. --Heidi Dehart, children's pastor at Glory of Zion Intl. Ministries This book feels like a chat with an encouraging friend who really understands you. Abigail asks deeply considered questions, steering clear of well-worn mothering platitudes. I found myself eager to read each entry, wondering what novel insights I'd benefit from next. --Dianne Fillmore, Spiritual Director

“There are more than 50 creative prompts for the artist (or artist at heart) to explore. Take the title of this book as affirmation, and get started.” —Fast Company More than 50 assignments, ideas, and prompts to expand your world and help you make outstanding new things to put into it Curator Sarah Urist Green left her office in the basement of an art museum to travel and visit a diverse range of artists, asking them to share prompts that relate to their own ways of working.

This book is for anyone who wants to make art, regardless of experience level. The only materials you'll need are what you already have on hand or can source for free. Full of insights, techniques, and inspiration from art history, this book opens up the processes and practices of artists and proves that you, too, have what it takes to call yourself one. You Are an Artist brings together more than 50 assignments gathered from some of the most innovative creators working today, including Sonya Clark, Michelle Grabner, The Guerrilla Girls, Fritz Haeg, Pablo Helguera, Nina Katchadourian, Toyin Ojih Odutola, J. Morgan Puett, Dread Scott, Alec Soth, Gillian Wearing, and many others.

Pep Talks, Warnings, And Screeds
Author: George Singleton
Publisher: Writer's Digest Books
ISBN: 9781582975658
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
Toddlers—and drunks—bang around hitting walls, tables, chairs, the floor, and other people, trying to find their legs. Writing fiction is a similar process. Sometimes it might take a while before the story gets some balance and moves forward. Sometimes the story takes off as if motor-driven, then crashes into something not foreseen or expected. Learning to be a writer is all about finding your legs, and doing your best to convince onlookers that you know what you're doing and where you're going. In Pep Talks, Warnings & Screeds, acclaimed Southern story writer and novelist George Singleton serves up everything you ever need to know to become a real writer (meaning one who actually writes), in bite-sized aphorisms. It's Nietzsche's Beyond Good & Evil meets Anne Lamott's Bird by Bird. It's cough syrup that tastes like chocolate cake. In other words, don't expect to get better unless you get a good dose of it, maybe two. Accompanied by more than fifty original full-color illustrations by novelist Daniel Wallace, these laugh-out-loud funny, candid, and surprisingly useful lessons will help you find your own writerly balance so you can continue to move forward.
