I used to walk alone by Larry Goodrich

I used to walk alone down paths of dirt and stone
I was confused and so alone

I heard a voice and was told
I could walk down streets of gold

It said there was a Holy Book
and all I had to do was look

I read about a mighty God
He had a son who died for mans sin.
and in my heart let Him in.

I no longer walk alone down paths of dirt and stone
and now that I'm getting old
I know someday I'll walk down those streets of gold.

Meet & Greet

Join us for the very first official 'The Write Scene' writers meeting on July 19th at 6:00 pm. We will be meeting at the Western Sizzlin in Ooltewah, TN. If you plan to eat before the meeting, please be there at 5:30 pm. This will be a short meeting to help us find out what you want to learn more about.

Our intent for this group is to become friends and help each other get past mental blocks and stumbling blocks that writer's sometimes experience. We also want to learn all the different aspects of the book publishing process to make it a better experience for first time writers and established authors.

 
Jeanette Cole, Secretary of The Write Scene (Scenic City Writers Group)

Hi, I am Jeanette Cole. I have been married 21 years to James Cole and we have two children. I recently wrote a book titled Depression: State of Mind. It's all about my testimony of overcoming depression. After a life-long battle of this mindset control of the enemy, I finally agreed to let God show me how to become whole. Making that decision brought attack after attack, but with each battle, I became stronger and stronger. God showed me how my attitude, speech, thoughts, words, and actions were keeping me bound. When the Word of God hit my spirit, it was life changing.  
Revelation 12:11 says that we are overcomers by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony. We must all be doers of the Word. It doesn’t help us, or those around us, if we are hearers only.

I never realized I had the gift of writing. After taking classes at Cleveland State Community College a few years ago, I found that I love every aspect of it. I love the research and the editing -the entire process. My Comp II instructor gave me a huge shout-out on several papers that I wrote in class so I decided to try writing a book. That is a totally different process, but it is very fulfilling. I am currently writing my second book and have ideas for several others. I just have to find the time to sit down and write them. That, I think, is the hardest part...finding the time.

Depression: State of Mind

Depression: State of Mind
 
The very first shout out for The Write Scene's website is going to be for my (Jeanette Cole's) first e-book Depression: State of Mind. I am still in the process of getting it in print. This is my testimony of overcoming depression. This was a very exciting process for me and I have learned so much. I truly believe that this book will help others overcome depression also. Revelation 12:11"We are overcomers by the blood of the Lamb and the words of our testimony."

I also have a website that I update weekly with motivational blogs. It is http://jeanetteshighervision.com/
