It is good to put things in perspective. Today’s video compares the size of various stars in the known and measured universe…then placed next to earth.

Only one response. Worship.

In these last days God has spoken to us by his Son [Jesus], whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. All things were made through [Jesus], and without [Jesus] was not anything made that was made. For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him.

There is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 

[Hebrews 1:2; John 1:3; Colossians 1:16; 1 Corinthians 8:6; Colossians 1:17]

It is Spring Training time for Major League Baseball. Fifteen teams come to Arizona (the other 15 are in Florida) for the month of March. A lot of fans come to watch (1.9 million last year). In honor of a new baseball season we just have to watch the classic “Who’s on First” by Abbot and Costello. When I was in high school I remember performing this with my Dad at a church get …

I’m trying to imagine this young lady pitching her book to me during an appointment at a writers conference. Imagine how much she could present in only 15 non-stop minutes! There have been times where someone’s nerves kicked their verbal presentation into high gear and they ended up emulating her talent. Please don’t do that! I would prefer a tranquil conversation. If you start …

Six Questions for a Literary Agent

1. What should a client expect from you as an agent?

That I will work hard.
That I will keep on top of the ever changing marketplace.
That I will maintain my integrity as a businessman of honor and honesty.
That I will protect your interests.
That I will tell you the truth, about the industry, about your writing, about your ideas.

There are two videos today, related to each other, that tell a wonderful story. Watch the first to see how an idea for literally serving a community of children becomes a mission. Raised in France and Italy, Bruno Serato came to the United States with $200 in his pocket in 1980. Twenty-five years later his momma came to visit and everything changed. (More after the video.) Five years after the …

A series of interview questions that dig into my reading life. What’s on your nightstand right now? I am an extremely eclectic reader and have dozens of books waiting for attention. In fiction I’m currently reading Run Program by Scott Meyer a science-fiction story of a newly developed artificial intelligence program that “gets out” of the lab and is now running loose on the Internet – with all …

Did you know we lost 10 letters from the English alphabet? Amaze your friends with today’s video. Better yet, write an entire sentence using these old letters and feel medieval and scholastic at the same time. Here is my attempt: In þe morniŋ ƿas þe æther around uƒ. Enjoy.

Someone called the other day and asked, “If I’ve self-published my book and want you to consider it for representation, should I even bother sending it? Or am I toast?” I answered, “It depends.” [For you regular readers, do you think that should become the motto of the Agency?] The question suggests it is an either/or proposition…determined by a set of rules that cannot be broken. The reality is …

This video is too funny! Wouldn’t it be hilarious if you could program your “Digital Assistant” like this? Oh wait…I think that day might be closer than we can imagine. Meanwhile enjoy this creative satire!
