manifesto

THE WORLD NEEDS BETTER CHRISTIAN STORIES. Why write preachy fiction when you could instead learn how to craft powerful stories for Christ? We’re talking about stories like _The_ _Chronicles of Narnia,_ _Crime & Punishment, _ _Pride & Prejudice, _and _Cry, the Beloved Country_. The stories people remember and read centuries after publication. With three simple items, we think you can write magnificent stories too.w
A DEDICATED COMMUNITY Great endeavors spring from small groups of dedicated individuals. That’s why Lewis & Tolkien formed the Inklings. That’s why we host the Guilds in our forum.
REGULAR TRAINING
Excelling as a writer requires consistent guidance. We train writers via articles, live discussions with published authors, and a biweeklypodcast.

ACTION STEPS
Every journey is taken one step at a time. Our resource library features growth plans and story worksheets to help you apply your knowledge and move forward with confidence. IT ALL STARTS WITH A QUIZ Growing as a writer is hard if you don’t know your strengths and weaknesses. That’s why we created the WRITING CRAFT QUIZ. It allows you to assess yourself in 14 different areas to gauge whether you may be a beginner, novice, intermediate, advanced, expert, or masterwriter.
Take the Quiz Now!
ACCELERATE YOUR WRITING GROWTH Once you’ve taken the WRITING CRAFT QUIZ, you need to figure out how to level up. We’ll point you to resources specifically chosen for the rank you received in the quiz. These will help you move forward so you can get closer to becoming a successful, published author. EVERY STORY BEGINS WITH A FLICKERING EMBER Whether you’re a best-selling novelist or a teenager writing your first book, all stories begin with a single premise (ember). WE WANT TO HELP YOU STIR THAT EMBER INTO A BLAZE AND IMPACT THE WORLD FOR CHRIST. To achieve that goal, we developed a series of resolutions that describes masterful Christian storytelling and gives writers a lofty standard to strive for.
