Grasping for the Wind: CSFF: The Door Within

CSFF: The Door Within

I recently joined the CSFF Blog Tour. The goal of the tour is to promote Fantasy and Science Fiction novels written by Christians. In all honesty, such books are not always very good, but as I read through the list of authors who are part of the tour, visited their websites, and looked around I ended up being more impressed than I thought I would be, so I joined. It's a noble goal and one I applaud.

This month, we are looking at the works of Wayne Thomas Batson. I've been enjoying reading his blog Enter the Door Within. Unlike some authors, he posts often and really lets us know something about his writing method. I especially enjoyed his comment about vocation?

"How do you know what God's will is for you? I can't speak for everyone, but it seems to me that if you find something you can do well, something that challenges you, kicks your tail from time to time, and you still can't seem to get enough of it…maybe that's God's will for you. So long as what you do lives up to scriptural scrutiny, that is."

You can read an interview with him at The Sword Review.

I think I'll pick up a copy of his first book of the The Door Within Trilogy, next time I purchase a few. The entire trilogy consists of The Door Within, Rise of the Wyrm Lord, and The Final Storm.
