Welcome to Write for Life! {Sustainer’s Smile and To Save a Life Launch Tour}

It’s October! That means it’s Respect Life month, it’s autumn, it’s the month Sustainer’s Smile finally launches, AND it’s time to kick off Write For Life!

What’s Write for Life?

It’s a blog and social media tour that’s scattering pro-life posts around the internet: one for each million babies whose lives have been lost since Roe v. Wade.

You see, R. M. Peterson of Life of Heritage and I wrote pro-life books that we’re releasing this month. It’s part of our calling to write books for the cause of life. And many other bloggers and social media influencers are writing and sharing pro-life posts this month as part of their calling to write for life. “Life and death are in the power of the tongue,” Scripture tells us, and I would submit that that is also true of the power of the pen. And that’s why we are writing for life.

Write for Life will last the ENTIRE MONTH of October and will include:

  • A month-long blog/bookstagram challenge #honorlifechallenge
  • A variety of pro-life posts of all sorts by 30 enthusiastic bloggers
  • Fun and/or thought-provoking social media posts throughout the month by a number of different people passionate about life
  • A cover reveal for my friend’s pro-life book To Save a Life
  • Character spotlights of characters from Sustainer’s Smile
  • A blast of release day goodies for both books!
  • Author interviews
  • Excerpts, snippets, and free chapters
  • A giveaway
  • And more!

In this post, I’ll introduce the blog/bookstagram challenge, the giveaway, and the WHOLE SCHEDULE so you can come back and catch up on posts during the month.

Blog/Bookstagram Challenge: Honor Life Challenge

Join the Honor Life challenge by posting on your blog or Instagram! Post a photo, or a quote, or a book, or a caption that features one of the prompts, and use the #honorlifechallenge hashtag. Don’t forget to link back to restinglife.com and lifeofheritage.com on a blog or tag @erikamathewsauthor and @lifeofheritage on Instagram!

Today’s prompt is Why I’m Pro-Life. I’d love to hear why you are pro-life.
