| Joyce Reid |
Author has written 24 stories for Nature, Friendship, Fantasy, Religion, Humor, Humor, Life, and Spiritual. So -- I'm Joyce Reid and I'll be posting my poetry here. I live on the west coast of America near lumbering rivers, snow-capped mountains, the ocean, forests, waterfalls, and hot, golden hills. Can you tell I love this place:) I also write Lord of the Rings fan fiction under the name Vané Alasse (Elvish for "beautiful joy"), here's the link: http://www.fanfiction.net/~vanealasse. I'm on barowdowns.com also, under the same name, with a smaller selection of the fanfiction.net stories and poems. I love to write, of course, and am an aspiring author. I am a Christian, as many of my poems will demonstrate. I believe beyond a doubt that the only true salvation comes from Jesus Christ. I hope to use my writing for the glory of God. I know Jesus died for every person: me, you, and all mankind. He loves you and is just waiting for you to answer the call everyone feels in their hearts: the need for the all-knowing, merciful, caring, true God. He is holding eternal salvation for you, and all you have to do is believe. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me:) God bless! My favorite authors are: C.S. Lewis J.R.R. Tolkien Jane Austen Laura Ingalls Wilder Enjoy reading my stuff and please review! ~Joyce "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy way acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths." ~Proverbs 3:5-6 "I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." ~John 8:12 | |||||
