Every creative travels a winding path...but we don't always understand where we're headed, or how our story actually will turn out.
Josh Kelley can attest to that...as his path took him from the pulpit to the local pubs as a professional bartender, and finally to a world of words as he fulfilled his desire to write a book and help others to do the same.
Josh Kelly is an author, ghostwriter and editor who has been working for over 15 years in the literary industry. His first book, Radically Normal, helps readers to understand that the work we do every day can be pleasing to God without comparing ourselves to others who make public, high-profile changes. He now has worked as a ghostwriter on 10 books and offers developmental editorial services to aspiring writers.
In this fascinating discussion, Josh reveals the ways that unlikely twists and turns of our lives actually lead us to where God would have us serve the world creatively. He explains how to combat the urge to compare ourselves to other creators so we don't become jealous and jaded, and we break down tips and strategies for aspiring writers who know they have a story to tell, but just wish they knew how to tell it.
