Fellowship of Christian Writers began with a handful of writers in the Tulsa, Oklahoma, area in 1979. We are men and women, sharing a love for Jesus and talents for verbal expression, joining together for encouragement, education, and fellowship. Our goal is to equip and encourage writers to follow their God-given dreams of putting words to paper. Whether writing for the religious or secular market, writing articles or novels, or writing news, features, devotionals, poetry, scripts, and essays, writers have a special calling to deliver well-crafted words to their readers. Our purpose is to provide mentoring and instruction; share skills; offer kindly criticism; supply information on markets, contests, and conferences; share prayer needs, and be inspired and encouraged by fellow writers. Our desire is that our written words always reflect Christ and glorify God.
“The Lord announced the word, and great was the company of those who proclaimed it.”
Psalm 68:11

September Meeting
Kristi Woods | Pinterest: An Author’s Secret Weapon
Come join us in September for an exciting meeting as local award-winning author Kristi Woods unsheathes and brandishes an author’s secret weapon, Pinterest! With over 522 million monthly active users, including a fast-growing number of 18-34 year olds, authors can tap into an often-unused resource for audience building, brand exposure, and book sales–all with minimal time or interface compared to popular social media channels.
In this session, we’ll learn what Pinterest is and why we might use it, dip in with a quick overview of intriguing stats and helpful usage, and aim for a bright future with resources to know and grow Pinterest as our very own secret weapon.
Kristi Woods, author and speaker, writes stories about Jesus and other heroes in contemporary Christian romance and nonfiction. Her award-winning work is published across the Internet and in print, including her gift book, 101 Prayers for Military Wives. Kristi, her Desert Storm pen pal-turned-husband, and three (now adult) children survived a nomadic, military lifestyle and have set roots in Oklahoma. There, she keeps a close watch for tornadoes and decadent chocolate.
