Welcome to the brand new home of Five Minute Friday! We’re a community that exists to encourage and equip Christian writers.
Click around and make yourself at home!
[Tweet “Five Minute Friday has a new home! Come visit!”]
A HUGE thank you to Susan at Fistbump Media for not only turning my vision for this site into a reality, but also going beyond all that I imagined! If anyone is looking for blog design assistance, go knock on Susan’s door!
A highlight of Five Minute Friday is our weekly blog link-up, which runs from Thursday at 10pm EST until the following Thursday at 9:55pm EST, week after week.
This week’s FMF prompt is: VISIT
Join in by visiting the former hosting site for one final week. Beginning Thursday, June 1st, you’ll be able to find the link up right here in the “Community” tab.
In addition to the regular link-up, we’ll also be offering helpful articles, resources, courses, and one-on-one consultations to aid your writing life.
We’re here to serve you, so please feel free to chime in to let us know how we can best meet your needs!
