After award-winning stage work in the nineties, Chris Elston moved to Los Angeles where he wrote more than two dozen feature film and television screenplays. He has been invited to participate in screenwriting events for Cinema Seattle and Angel Citi Film Festival. In 2013, Chris left Los Angeles for the suburbs of his hometown, Seattle, Washington, to get married and start a new chapter in his own story.

But, if you grind it out, you always get through them. Sometimes, you even have to walk away. A lot of times I'll go workout or take a shower so that I can think about what's slowing me down. Most of the time, I have it figured out by the time I'm back in front of the laptop. It just takes some mental wrestling. Most of the time, that fight makes it all better anyway.(less)

It's also why I enjoy cooking so much. In both cases, you start with nothing but an idea and wind up with something you hope is wonderful when it's all over. The process can be a minor taste of hell at times but, in the end, we all hope it's worth it. And, usually, it is.(less)

Defining a “Christian” Novel (re-post)

I’m continuing to slowly rollout my answers to questions in an interview I did on Twitter back in November for #MounceChat / #HealthyFaith. This week’s post is a short but sweet one. A writer from Montana named Carol Buchanan asked me, “What defines a ‘Christian novel’?” Here is how I responded:
