I am thinking about writing a radio drama for the, "BBC World Service -- BBC World Drama -- International Radio Playwriting Competition".  According to their website, "The competition will open again in October 2015." It is usually a few months after the opening that the competition closes.  This means that I have enough time to write something.  And Ishould also have enough time for revisions.  This text has come from the  journal of my radio writing efforts.  The reason I am sticking the, "Radio Writing Journal," with the Lums Chapel stories, is because I am thinking of writing something with my Lums Chapel characters for the competition.

I am working on a novel already. I will continue to take notes and keep that story, "in mind".  I need to keep up with some house work.  I also need to do a few things in the computer room in order to make the room an even better working environment.  I have a goal of making room in the living room for an indoor bike.  Another goal is to actually ride the bike.  Then I hope to get out more this summer to ride my outdoor bike.  One of the writing books I have talks about how to stay healthy so you can be freed up to write.  I also need to get around people more during the day.  Yet another goal is to ride the outdoor bicycle, to do the writing at the library this summer.  I had planned on doing that last summer but never managed to get there.

I want to keep praying about this.  I need to know if I should embark on such an ambitious project.  And I need to know what to write.  I have some ideas, but I want to do what God wants.  I don't want to do what I want and then try to fit God into the story some how like an after thought.
