Starting out – cnon2014
https://cnon2014.wordpress.com/2014/02/05/starting-out/comment-page-1
Life, death and writing! February 5, 2014. February 13, 2014. New month, new(ish) year, new blog, new book to write! Actually it’s a new version of an idea I had nearly 20 years ago and tried out on a couple of editors. The response was ‘Beautifully written, stunning imagery – but hard to place in the commercial market.’. Up till then, I’d written realistic fiction (see my website http:/ clarenonhebel.com/. And select Books from the top bar if you’d like to browse). Posted in: Fiction writing. One though...

November 2014 – cnon2014

Life, death and writing! Real help for prisoners – an inside job. November 11, 2014. November 12, 2014. Cutting ‘optional extras’ for prisoners, like educational, social skills and faith-based programmes, may be an option for cost-cutters and economists – but it leaves prisoners with few options except the one that got them locked up. A prison term is meant to fulfil two purposes:. A) to correct behaviour, by punishment and deprivation of freedom. Inside themselves, that is. It is impressive to see p...

The book I was never going to write – cnon2014
https://cnon2014.wordpress.com/2014/10/17/the-book-i-was-never-going-to-write
Life, death and writing! The book I was never going to write. October 17, 2014. October 17, 2014. In 15 or so years of praying with people for spiritual and physical healing I had read quite a lot of books on the subject. Some, written by experienced people like Francis MacNutt, described the process of healing and all the layers of reality behind it very articulately. Even if you changed their names and any identifying details, those people had revealed their lives to some stranger so that they could re...

Why Jesus isn’t Santa Claus – cnon2014

Life, death and writing! Why Jesus isn’t Santa Claus. January 2, 2015. Http:/ www.christiantoday.com/article/advent.reflection.santa.doesnt.do.suffering/44822.htm. Last Christmas, a Dubai hotel welcomed its Western guests with a pink festive tinsel tree in the foyer and a banner proclaiming: ‘Celebrating the REAL meaning of Christmas – the birth of Santa! It’s an easy mistake to make, and not only for outside observers. 8216;He has filled the hungry with good things! Although children generally have no p...

E-publishing – Death Row survivor’s story – cnon2014
https://cnon2014.wordpress.com/2014/02/06/e-publishing-versus-traditional/comment-page-1
Life, death and writing! E-publishing – Death Row survivor’s story. February 6, 2014. February 16, 2014. My most recent book was my first excursion into e-publishing, with Amazon Kindle and then Smashwords. Not being very techno, I needed loads of help and even then it was still a learning curve, but an interesting experience. But, after a gruelling two-hour ordeal, the execution failed. Still here, still there, still alive, he wanted to tell his story – especially after he asked for his legal file...

SHORT STORY: The visitors – cnon2014
https://cnon2014.wordpress.com/2014/11/03/short-story-the-visitors
Life, death and writing! SHORT STORY: The visitors. November 3, 2014. Picture by Shirley Walker). It was difficult, not knowing the visitors. What if they didn’t like either chocolate cake or battenburg? Some people hated marzipan, didn’t they? Harriet added a small plate of shortbread. You couldn’t go wrong with shortbread – could you? What if one or more of the family was diabetic and couldn’t eat sweet things at all? Or on a weight loss programme and reluctant to eat anything fattening? Or a young man...

Giving it all away – again! – cnon2014
https://cnon2014.wordpress.com/2014/10/29/giving-it-all-away-again
Life, death and writing! Giving it all away – again! October 29, 2014. On Feb 16 2014 I published a post called ‘Giving it all away’ – about re-publishing all my previous books for free. So far, I have three now available on Smashwords – a novella: ‘Popcorn,’ and two non-fiction books: ‘Far From Home’ and ‘Healing For Life.’. So there’s the choice. If you’d like to read any of the books (more will follow), they are free on Smashwords and you can download them on to any electronic device e...You are comme...

March 2015 – cnon2014
https://cnon2014.wordpress.com/2015/03
Life, death and writing! Too scientific for God? March 6, 2015. Believing in science is often claimed as an alternative to believing in God. Science, it’s said, will eventually provide all the explanations for everything in the universe and even beyond it. I am proud to have several scientists in my family and in my husband’s family. Scientists will tell you that nothing is as fascinating and indispensable as science – but that it’s not an exact science! Then in ten years or ten decades or ten minutes ti...
