I'm sure many people out there want to write the next best selling book or the next great book, but i'm sure many don't know where to start. Well this blogpost is a great start.
In publishing a book, you must first ensure that the book is good, and is something that publishers and agents would be willing to spend their money on. Before you send it to an international editor, ensure it's edited by someone local. After you edited it locally, either from your english language teacher or University professor, search for an agent. This search is usually done online, and the best way to find great agencies, is from writers digest. A great agency is the Knight agency.
Okay, so you found an agency. Now the hard work begins. Now you have to convince that agency, that your book is something special and can be the next best seller. You must send them a query letter http://www.johnsonliterary.com/blog/2010/2/9/anatomy-of-a-query-letter.html. A query letter is something like a Resume. You want the agency to represent your book. After you send your query letter, it's all in God's hands now. Pray and wait with hope. You must also continue writing, because they might ask you if your working on anything else. If you get accepted by the agency, things good now. They will ask you to send the whole manuscript either by email or snailmail. They will then read it, if they like it, then things are really good. They would look for an editor then a publisher. It's all free by the way. Literary agents receives money via commissions on the book sales. Your book is one step closer to being reaching on bookshelves around the world.
The publishers will then print your work publish it and they pay you based on the amount of sales that they think the book can acquire. In other words they buy the rights to sell your book based on it's quality.
You then get royalties from the book sales.
These steps are not easy, i'm not going to lie to you. Getting accepted by an agency is tough. Never send query letters to one agency. The chances of being rejected are high, so send to many agents. Remember agents don't want to represent a "crappy" book, so make sure the book is quality before submitting.

Spoken word poetry(I am legend)
I am Legend
Making a name is my greatest invention
It got Einstein puzzled
Drawing a plan for my life, I got the model
My invention
Inventing something that lives on forever
Got the key to eternal life, and better
I got my legend, not john
But the son. The name I strive to make
The Christ and if you feel your legend is boss
Wait till you meet the man who bled on the cross
He was wounded for our transgression
Bruised for our inequities
He didn’t die to save a woman and a little boy from a pack of zombies
But he died to cleanse the world from our sins
Salvation was passed on from generation to generation
So who’s really the legend
Rolling stone and New York times talk about men that were legendary
Men like Micheal Jackson, Tupac and Biggy
Rapping about the hood and how they came out of poverty
And into this life of prosperity
Painting a false picture of it unto the canvas of the ignorant
Making it seem like life is all about sex, money, cars,clothes and drugs
The tangible and totally ignoring the intangible things that live on forever
Morals, values, integrity
I hope I don’t come across as a preacher
In any way
But I have something to say
Jump high, jump low
I’ll say it
Cuz me I’m not a quitter
You all are welcome to follow
No twitter
So if anyone asks me who’s a legend
I’m not going say Kanye west
Notice I say it with so much emphasis
Huh
I’m not going to say that person
That it’s the man who got all the money in the world
But the man whose whole world is upside down
And still maintains his integrity
I’m not going to say the man who’s living out his fantasy
But the man who suffers for doing what is right
Not the man who’s got all the girls in the world
But he who he has one, and she means the world to him
I’m not going to say mahatma ghandi or napoleon
Or the last king of Scotland
But the king of kings
Lord of lords
Jesus Christ
And with his help
If anybody asks me who’s a legend
I’ll put up my L and say
With confidence
I am Legend

Aliens 2 Illuminati and Christianity
Spiritual beings has affected humanity since the beginning of time. This phenomenon, isn't strange to us even today, but the world has been deceived so much, that people tap into evil spirits without even knowing. This is done in the form of songs and chants in songs. Symbols and signs that sends a message straight to spirit realm. The ancient Egyptians were very good at this, and their culture is still alive and well today. Have you ever heard of a secret group or society called the illumaniti. In the early 1800's this group infiltrated the Freemasons, and fully infected them, but were band after nine years. Some say they are still here as a secret elite controlling the affairs of the world today, leading it to a new world order. Some believe that they using music, movies and influential and powerful people to lead the world to the new world order. One Government and one religion.This was predicted in Revelation 13 1
"And now in my vision I saw a beast rising up out of the sea. It had seven heads and ten horns, with ten crowns on its horns. And written on each head were names that blasphemed God. 2This beast looked like a leopard, but it had bear’s feet and a lion’s mouth! And the dragon gave him his own power and throne and great authority.
3 I saw that one of the heads of the beast seemed wounded beyond recovery—but the fatal wound was healed! All the world marveled at this miracle and followed the beast in awe. 4They worshiped the dragon for giving the beast such power, and they worshiped the beast. “Is there anyone as great as the beast?” they exclaimed. “Who is able to fight against him?”
5 Then the beast was allowed to speak great blasphemies against God. And he was given authority to do what he wanted for forty-two months. 6And he spoke terrible words of blasphemy against God, slandering his name and all who live in heaven, who are his temple. 7 And the beast was allowed to wage war against God’s holy people and to overcome them. And he was given authority to rule over every tribe and people and language and nation. 8 And all the people who belong to this world worshiped the beast. They are the ones whose names were not written in the Book of Life, which belongs to the Lamb who was killed before the world was made.
9Anyone who is willing to hear should listen and understand. 10 The people who are destined for prison will be arrested and taken away. Those who are destined for death will be killed. But do not be dismayed, for here is your opportunity to have endurance and faith.
The Beast out of the Earth
11 Then I saw another beast come up out of the earth. He had two horns like those of a lamb, and he spoke with the voice of a dragon. 12He exercised all the authority of the first beast. And he required all the earth and those who belong to this world to worship the first beast, whose death-wound had been healed. 13He did astounding miracles, such as making fire flash down to earth from heaven while everyone was watching. 14 And with all the miracles he was allowed to perform on behalf of the first beast, he deceived all the people who belong to this world. He ordered the people of the world to make a great statue of the first beast, who was fatally wounded and then came back to life. 15He was permitted to give life to this statue so that it could speak. Then the statue commanded that anyone refusing to worship it must die.
16 He required everyone—great and small, rich and poor, slave and free—to be given a mark on the right hand or on the forehead. 17And no one could buy or sell anything without that mark, which was either the name of the beast or the number representing his name. 18 Wisdom is needed to understand this. Let the one who has understanding solve the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man.£ His number is 666.£"
The second beast is definitely a man. The first beast was described very clearly in Daniel 7:24 "The ten horns are ten kings that will come from this kingdom......" All who are left would worship the second beast, one religion. one ruler, one government. This is the new world order. This would happen, whether you believe it or not, just a matter of time. This new world order is being cleverly orchestrated. Many rappers and singers are telling us this. Power by Kanye west, definitely talks about a man who will have way to much power(antichrist). At first you might think he is talking bout himself. He is not, listen to the words carefully, he is talking about somebody who isn't here yet, well in terms of the public eye(I recommend you listen to the song only for research purposes, not as a form of entertainment. You can either take my word for it or listen to it yourself, we must not be ignorant of these things.). These people are preparing the way for a man. They even sing worship songs to the devil. Yes worship songs, it's not only in the church. Et katy perry worship song. These artiste are preparing evrybody for the last days, brainwashing the youths. People listening could be doing all kinds of "obeah" or devil worship and they don't even know. Let's open our eyes to what is going on today, ignorance is not bliss, lets create a culture that glorifies God. The world is heading to destruction, and the only way to escape is to alienate yourself from the world and trust in God. Become Christlike, do not do what the world does, do not conform to the world or you will be destroyed like the world. Lets wait in faith for the new world promise by God. Just persevere, survive this world and you will reign for eternity with God. Please take my advice, don't wait till it's to late to turn to Christ. Do the Job that you were put here for by God and "buss out" or pack up and leave the earth. You don't want to miss the opportunity, you don't want to risk your eternity because of your sinful desires. Be wise and trust in God and do his will for your life. While I was doing research on the illuminati, I found this christian rap about the illuminati by Bizzle (God over money)
Aliens 3 is the last article on this topic, and it will mainly focus on being an alien in the world. Being in the world but not of this world so please look forward for the next issue, and remember Jesus is Lord.

Modern Christians: Aliens!!!!!!
Modern Christians: Aliens!!!!!!: "Many people always wonder, are we alone the universe. Definitely not. We are not alone in the universe, we aren't even alone on this earth...."
Aliens!!!!!!
This woman in the video claimed to have gotten in a fatal accident, and came out untouched and what showed up in the photos was unbelievable.
Our main influence has been from the spirit realm. Many religions and faiths were not influenced by man, but by something that desires it of them. Either God Almighty or the devil and his demons,. Demons acquire full fledged worship by some religions. The most obvious of this, is in ancient Egypt. Many Scholars and professors have studied the wonders of this ancient empire. The almost impossible structures, the astounding knowledge of the Egyptians. The most used assumption of the wonders of ancient Egypt, as said on many documentaries such as Ancient Aliens (The full version of an episode is located here for reference)
is that aliens influenced the culture of Egypt. The faces of gods of Egypt were the faces of alien visitors, However that notion is from a scientific view. The possibility of demons, establishing themselves on earth via religion and culture is not very far-fetched. Practically all of the structures in ancient Egypt were made as a form of worship to their gods. You can only wonder what really occurred in ancient Egypt. However very surprisingly, many of the gods and rituals practised by the Egyptians are still very alive today. In masonic cults and illuminati rituals. The eye of horus, the illuminati pyramid and there is morehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freemasonry We are not alone in this universe.
In Aliens!!!! 2, I would discuss the illuminati a bit more and state that there are a group of aliens in the world today. You see them all the time. They look just like you and me, but they are aliens. I will update it when I'm done and remember, Jesus is lord.

Modern Christians: Modern Warfare 1

Modern Warfare 1
In this modern era, the war for your soul has intensified, for the time is short. The battle will only get worse over time, especially after the first rapture Rev 12:12 "Rejoice, O heavens! And you who live in the heavens, rejoice! But terror will come on earth and sea. For the devil has come down to you in great anger and he knows that he has little time" The time is near for Jesus's return and the devil is very aware of that. Many of the prophecies, in the bible, if not all has come to past. The devil is seeking to whom he may destroy more keenly. Looking for souls that he may drag to hell, before the time is up. Temptations will intensify, for he doesn't want us to make it to heaven.
But thank God that we have the ability to make war. Thank God we have a weapon, the word of God. It's sharper than a two edged sword, it makes demons flee. It destroys a person ignorance of the spirit realm and the issues of life. Using the word we fight, Jesus fought off the devil by resisting temptation and quoting scriptures. In our battle against the darkness, we must understand Ephesians 6:11 "For we are not fighting people made of flesh and blood, but against the evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against those mighty powers of darkness, who rule the world, and against wicked spirits in the heavenly realms." We are fighting against principalities and powers. The only way to fight back is the spirit and knowledge of God. Tap into the power that is within he, "Greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world" We have power, holy ghost power, so let's fight the good fight of faith. Temptation may and will come, even Jesus was tempted, but resist the temptation to do evil. Be strong and of good courage and remember that heaven is your home, but to make it to heaven, we are going to have to fight. No devil in hell can touch the lord's annointed, but it's a war. Everyday there is a war going on, good and evil, God and the devil. The longest war ever, the war for our souls. Only few win, many give up and lose, but blessed is he who perseveres, and remember Jesus is lord.

Modern Gospel music 1
People over the years, have come up with the conclusion that Christianity is boring. I totally disagree with that statement. I have been a real Christian for 2 years and it is actually quite cool. You have a feeling of safety, that God is with you. You face challenges on a daily basis, and when you conquer those challenges you feel great. Being in the presence of God, the creator of the heavens and the earth is an honor. You get that urge to do things that are pleasing to him. You get a feeling of completeness.
Since i became Christian, i found it very difficult to stop listening to music that is carnal. However I was introduced to Gospel rap, which was a great replacement, because it was better then the carnal music. I always thought that Gospel music was only classified into one genre. However Gospel music has revolutionised, in terms of genre. The gospel of Jesus Christ is the same, the message never changed, but the medium has. Devoted Christians such as Lecrae, Sho baraka, Flame, Dwayne Tryumf and Jin, has started the genre of Gospel rap. Preaching the gospel, in a way that the people of today could relate to. There is also other genres such as rock, country r&b etc.
In future posts i will posts more songs that can be listened to by the Modern Day Christians (MDC), after some reviewing. May God continue to bless you and remember Jesus is lord
