Writing for the Daily Devotions…

Writing for the Daily Devotions

Dear Friends,

As you know we send a reading, short reflection, and prayer out to over 4,000 people every morning via email, social media, podcast and (to those who request) booklet format.  We have around 100 writers work hard to produce reflections that are shared so widely and to whom we owe many thanks.

I am currently looking to recruit some more writers.  The commitment is to write at least 4 Devotions a year, produce a reflection of between 270 and 330 words and to craft a prayer of fewer than 76 words.  There’s also a strong need to keep to deadlines.  Writers choose dates from a rota I prepare and then load up their work before the deadline.  I then make any necessary edits, volunteers load them up to this email programme, others record them as podcasts and I format them into booklet format.  This all takes time so deadlines are normally three months before they are due to be sent out.

If you think you’d like to try your hand at this do drop me an email telling me a little bit about yourself and any experience you’ve got in this area.

With every good wish

Andy
