A powerful motivator for aspiring writers, Grit for the Oyster offers wit, wisdom, and inspiration to take that first step and persevere through the writing journey.More than a how-to, this confidence-building book is designed to draw readers to a closer relationship with God, to affirm their calling to write, and to offer pithy practical guidance from successful writers like Terri Blackstock, Martha Bolton, James Scott Bell, Liz Curtis Higgs, Dr. Gary Chapman, and David Kopp.​"A treasure trove of encouraging words for writers..." New York Times Bestselling Author, Terri Blackstock"To every Christian writer who's ever felt lonely, inadequate and probably delusional (can't think of any that leaves out), this book throws out a cheerful welcome. In its pages, you'll find a helpful and soul strengthening community. Enjoy." ~David Kopp, best-selling co-author of The Prayer of Jabez, executive editor, Multnomah Books
