My name is Leigh, and I’m a Christian writer and speaker. My “real” work (that is, the work that helps pay the bills) involves writing and editing all sorts of things for businesses — website copy, brochures, magazine articles, newsletters, etc. But my favorite work is whatever I’m doing when I write and speak for God — devotionals, Bible studies, Sunday school curriculum, presentations for women’s or girls’ groups, etc. I’ve always loved to write, and God led me to teaching about 8 years ago. Now that He’s shown me how to merge the writing and teaching with speaking, He’s created a dangerous girl! But I’m having a blast as I watch Him grow my ministry, so I guess that’s what counts. 

My first devotional book for teen/tween girls is due out in November 2007. It’s called Divas in Disguise, and takes a look at a lot of women from the Bible and the lessons we can learn from them. Sometimes the women who look like they have it all together are way off base, and the women no one pays attention to are the ones who are right on track!

I’m finishing my second devotional for girls, called Every Girl’s a Diva. It will hit the shelves in early 2008, and looks at how each of us is special in God’s eyes, no matter who we are or where we’re from.

Thanks for stopping by Godly Girl Place. I hope this will be a place you can visit and tell your friends about when you’re looking for things to help keep you on track in the world.
