“You have a big responsibility,” I
told her at the end of the Writing for the Soul conference.
Through a weekend packed with twelve
class hours and six keynotes, she’d learned a lot. Now comes
applying what she learned.
She
already has a speaking ministry to teens. Her nonfiction sample I
evaluated shows great potential.
But
she’s behind the curve in presenting her material online — either
to publicize her work or to enable access by online readers. She’s
more relational than a techie.
“Shouldn’t
be a problem,” I said. “Find people who are. Concentrate on what
you do well, and enlist the help of people with the website and
technical skills you lack.”
With
25 of the conference’s 70 sessions devoted to promotion and
marketing, she’d been given access — either live or through
recordings — to what she needs to apply. I hope she does.

I think, sometimes, we forget just what that responsibility means for us.
