  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I was born in a small town in North Central Ohio, near Cedar Point. I have a beautiful wife, two wonderful kids, a dog, and a cat. So yes, a very typical American family. We all love our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and are committed to sharing His redeeming message to all the land.

In school, I was really advanced in math, which reflects well in my career, working in finance. However, English was always my worst subject. I haven’t read many books, and struggle to even write simple sentences, as well as getting grammar and punctuation correct. Thank goodness for spell check. I have always had these stories in my mind just floating around, so I decided that even though I wasn’t very good at writing, that I would just put them on paper, or on the internet. I discovered that I really enjoyed sharing my stories with people.

These first twelve stories have been both exhilarating and tough to accomplish. Fortunately, I have had a community of writers, along with my wonderful wife, helping me by giving positive encouragement and by showing my errors in a respectful way. As I continue my journey in writing, I hope you all take delight in reading them and that the messages that are within are compelling and thought provoking.

If you would like, check out the site and let me know what you think.

Prophetic stories. Quite compelling my friend. I was taken in them certainly. I will read another.
Thank you so much for your kind words. Please pray that these stories will make a difference in lives.

You know I'm a self published author myself? It's fairly easy with Ingram lightning sparks: www.ingramspark.com

I don't know if this will help you but it's how I published my free ebook:

The Sounding of the Horn, an Ebook by Kevin Snow

If you have any questions on how to do it, just ask me and I'll be glad to help you. But no worries if you know enough and are going a different route. I'm just throwing it out to you to see if it will help.

Thank you for the help. I am doing some editing on them right now, but will soon be looking at publishing. I will definitely check out that site and will keep you in mind if I go that route.

Awesome! Glad to be of help. Any questions publishing an ebook let me know. I hand coded my ebooks and can help with that too. Actually I used Adobe's InDesign program to auto create the ebook and then edited those ebooks to fit different formats like epub or Kindle or anything. So I recommend Adobe InDesign. I used that also to format the hard copy of the book for ingramspark. That program will export to the pdf's you need for it.

I enjoy the reality in your writing. It actually reminds me of my own style. I'm going to share a prose poem I wrote in the writer's section of the forum because of you. Thanks and keep getting better.
