I broached the subject of co-writing an autobigraphy to a friend who runs a ministry. Seems he's been wanting to do that but doesn't have the writing ability for it. The books he's written sell well enough but they are instructional books. He looked at my novel and was very impressed with the style, and is eager to talk over the project.
Here's the catch -- in order to do it, I'll need some income from it. He's anticipated that, but is not sure how much or how to go about it. I told him that I'll leave it to God's providence to supply the right amount (without mentioning a figure). I sent that email to him today. If his ministry can afford it, or a supporter wants to back the project, then that will solve our current financial problems, as well as begin a nice career. Once his book is published, I should be able to do the same for others, and could eventually pay off our debts and move us to solid financial ground.
But...he'll need to get the funding. I know I can write an awesome autobiography for him and since he's already got an active support core for his ministry, the book sales should surge enough initially to get it recognized in wider circles.
Pray that God's will will be done in this.
