Book Review Up!
After months of anticipation, I got my first book review from the lovely people at Wrecked for the Ordinary! Granted, it certainly wasn’t a glowing review, which is tough. It’s hard to have your first book be misunderstood in public! However, this will not waver me. I have been making contact with other outlets to get more reviews out there to provide some counter balance!
If you’ve read the book, check the review out and comment. Even if you didn’t like the book, comment. That will attract more traffic, which in turn will bring more exposure.

Prodigal Magazine
Through my connections with Wrecked for the Ordinary, I have started submitting articles to Prodigal Magazine! If you haven’t heard of Prodigal, they are an up-and-coming men’s Christian magazine and have over 2,000 articles ranging from fantasy football to fatherhood.
I am also beginning talks with them to get a book review for Green Bean Spirituality, and I am still waiting on a review from Wrecked for the Ordinary on a review from them as well. As of now, that’s two pending reviews, and I hope to see how the Christian community is responding to my work.
Another big thing on the horizon is a possible interview with with “The Bi-Weekly Show” to discuss my other writing opportunities.
Thanks for staying tuned guys! If you want to read my article on Prodigal Mag, click here or go to the My Works page.

More Articles!
I have really been growing to love Jeff Goins and the lovely people at Wrecked for the Ordinary!
Within the past month and a half or so, they have run two more articles I have written! Count this as my excuse for not writing any essays as of late, seeing that I can only commit myself to so much literature without my Math GPA heading south.
I need to take the time to thank all of you who have been keeping up with my work. Thanks to all of you, my articles on this site have well exceeded 600 already! Because you all have been great about reading and posting comments, I have been able to continue writing for Wrecked for the Ordinary.
Also, a book review from one of their younger writers has been in the works for a little while, and will hopefully be available to you all very soon.
Check out the ‘My Works’ page to read the articles if you haven’t already!

A Friend and a Blogger
A friend of mine who has since graduated, travelled the world, and enrolled at graduate school (rather impressive resume) stumbled across a copy of Green Bean Spirituality and blogged about it! She (Sarah) also was the same person to reference me to Wrecked for the Ordinary who allowed me to write a column on their site.
After doing a bit of looking around Wrecked for the Ordinary, I found that Sarah submitted an article there too! You can check out her article here, or her blogpost here.
I never realized how many of my friends are writers and talented ones at that!
Just so you all know, a book review is hopefully in the works, and should be taking form soon! As always, I will keep you all informed!

My First Article!
A friend of mine directed me to a snazzy online magazine called Wrecked for the Ordinary. The columnists focus on issues revolving around modern spirituality, and social justice issues.
Just today, they accepted a piece I submitted into them, thus being the first press to publish one of my works! You can check the site out here, or just my article here.

A Delightful Article!
At University of Delaware, we have a lovely newspaper called “The Review.”
In this past weeks issue, there was an article featuring my writing, and some of my life otherwise. Check out the link here!
I have also made a few contacts such that more media exposure could be coming again pretty soon! I will be updating you all as things develop.
One more thing; my personal blog. I have been keeping a personal blog for the past couple of years, and I want to make it accessible to all those who are strictly SomedayPublished. Check it out here!
