This Writer’s Journey…Chris Maxson

Writing is a journey, one I truly love and enjoy, but it can sometimes feel rather lonely. Hour after hour, alone, at the computer, pouring your heart and soul into each word. But I’ve learned I’m not alone, in fact, I’ve been blessed to be in contact with some amazing people, both writers and non-writers.

I want to share a bit of that with you. Each week I’ll be spotlighting someone I’ve come in contact with during my journey. Thanks for stepping along side of me—all of you—during this exciting time!

Chris Maxson

I met Chris a couple of years ago when I started a new job doing some marketing for a local company. Since then I’ve left that job and so has he, but we’ve kept up through Facebook. Gotta love Facebook.

Anyway, I had to mention Chris here because he’s been a big part of my writing journey. With his and his wife’s support, encouragement, and Chris’s website knowledge.

Now, I jokingly posted on Twitter the other night:  Lynn Rush + Technology = TROUBLE. I was on my way to meet Chris to get the new website finished up, and I was nervous something wouldn’t go right. I mean, when someone says, “Oh, it’s easy.” I simply roll my eyes and smile.

I really don’t know much about doing that website set up stuff at all. Once it’s running and I’m shown how to manage things, then I can usually run with it, but the technical stuff…not so much.

Chris offered to help and I’ve been so grateful. For a newbie author just starting out it was a big blessing. More than he can know. He’s so patient with all my questions and worries. I’ve learned so much during all of this.

So thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule, away from your wife & baby, to help me get things rolling with this. I’ll never forget it!
