The Soul of Story: A Christian Philosophy on Writing Fiction that Endures for Generations
Written by Scott Appleton

About this audiobook
Learn to write fiction from a Christian perspective that impacts future generations.
Writers, there has been a void where this book should have been. Many books have been written on the mechanics of writing effective fiction, but story is more than its structure. Christian writers need not appeal to culture for its approval of what they write. Rather, they can guide readers through stories that encourage them to become the heroes and heroines that we need.
People need to be inspired, convicted, and encouraged by your stories... and The Soul of Story teaches you to do that fearlessly!
