I am a freelance writer who has been published in books, magazines, online sites, etc. For example, my book, POWERFUL TIPS FOR POWERFUL TEACHERS: Helping Youth Find Their Spiritual Wings, can be found in most LDS bookstores and online at DeseretBook.com. I find great satisfaction writing to aid others, both parents and youth. In fact, most of my work as a writer and composer is towards this end. And I´ll include more links at the end to help you find those efforts.

Most importantly, though, I am a convert of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormons) and love it! My parents were converts to the Mormon faith a decade or so into their marriage. As a result, I also joined the Mormon church as a youth. To this day, I am grateful for that decision. I love the Savior Jesus Christ and relish the knowledge that He is my Redeemer and Savior. Without Him, I would not be who I am today. In fact, I would be most lost!

The Lord has blessed my life in many ways, as He will for all His children. Some of those greatest blessings have come in the form of my family. My husband is my great stabilizer and friend. My kids, in fact, are pretty awesome and very normal - we have a blast homeschooling. While we have experienced death, disabilities, and other traumas, we still tend to have a lot of fun as a family.

I can´t wait to share with you here at the LDS BellaOnline.com site. Not only will we explore the restored gospel of Jesus Christ, but we will also explore many other exciting topics. We´ll also meet from time-to-time LDS authors, playwrights, composers, scientists ... in fact, if there is anyone you are interested in being interviewed, just drop me an email and I´ll see if I can oblige.

It´s great to have you here. Now for those promised links (of course, I don´t participate in all of these at once [grin]):

* My Sunday music CD, called A Time for Ana. (I wrote this music to aid healing in children [or adults] who have experienced trauma. But it´s also been used for the Sabbath day and scripture study.)

* My articles at Meridian Magazine, to help families with Family Home Evening lessons that are free AND easy!

I´m also in the process of scoring my musicals that have been produced. When that is done, they will be available for download to use in your own stakes and wards - without charge! Visit CSBezasMusic.com and sign up for the newsletter to be the first to know, to receive free sheet music of my songs, in addition to free MP3s! When I´m not being a mommy, I also periodically speak at a variety of conferences.

Why do I do all this? I feel talents are meant to be used to bless the lives of families, and that is why I do what I do. Everything that I can possibly offer for free, I do. I´d love to hear from you. Simply write me here via the email link. I may not be able to respond immediately, but know that I will write as soon as I can!

Until then, here is my favorite scripture: D&C 111:11. The Lord loves us!

Warmly,

C.S. Bezas
