Guest Authors and Their Publications
Under special circumstances we offer the opportunity for guest authors to write articles for The Wordsmith Blog: Where Life in Christ is Articulated. Guest authors are by invitation only. We do not accept cold or blind requests, which are spammed, deleted, and blocked.
We are living in an age of rife deception, and hold to the belief that all things should be tested (1 Thessalonians 5:21). Therefore, we employ a strict screening process to preserve the Truth of God’s Word and to protect the integrity of this company. Guest authors must undergo a thorough theological screening whereby their content is measured against the Word of God in determining if it can be deemed theologically sound. It also undergoes vetting and research screening to ensure the accuracy of their content. At our behest we may require personal references, OR a personal and/or networking relationship with that individual whereby their character is known and proven with God and man. If they are beholden to a specific organization or ministry, their position within it and the broader reputation of that ministry or organization will also be carefully considered, as our publication of their content would be considered a type of endorsement. We do not allow guest authors whom we cannot fully endorse.
If you are a guest author on our blog, it will be for the distinct purpose of adding value to our content whereby critical material that is needed for the Body of Christ becomes readily available to the masses, which the said guest would be expert in sharing. We recognize the gifts and callings of others who have a voice in the Body of Christ, and we hold our stewardship very dear in being able to potentially offer them a publishing platform with a global reach. As such, the content (intellectual property) of guest authors becomes the copyrighted material of Appointed Time Press, LLC, unless otherwise specified. We, therefore, have and hold the full rights to edit, publish, and delete (un-publish) the said guest author’s material according to copyright law. Proper attributions and credits will always accompany (be disclosed within) the respective published content.
Guest authors require contractural agreement(s), which will survive this company. There are no fees or dues paid by guest authors for these publication(s) whereby they would become indebted to us. Any monetary profit gained by these publications, past, present, or future, are, and shall remain, the sole property of Appointed Time Press, LLC.
Under special circumstances and for various reasons that warrant viable concern, and by official written notarized request only, we give guest author’s the opportunity to have their content fully withdrawn or un-published from our platform. Such examples would be: threats, persecution, personal changes in ministry, theological beliefs, etc. Such decisions will be both confirmed and disclosed in writing by Appointed Time Press, LLC and carried out expediently in the most appropriate manner possible, so far as it depends upon us. Explanations to the public may or may not be necessitated by Appointed Time Press, LLC. All such decisions are finalized judiciously by Appointed Time Press, LLC.
For more information please see our Legal Disclosures.
We hope this information is helpful. If you are a guest author by invitation and still have questions, please contact us. We would be happy to assist you.

As I founded this ministry, she took to her passion for photography with the endeavor of making it her new profession. Those dreams sparked a mutual need between us.

WEB DESIGN
Erin Pavlicek
Author & Founder
This website and its design are exclusive, being my very own.
The design you see here was inspired by God and corresponds to our emblem: the pearl. Neutral earthy hues with shades and tints of blue were key. His peace and tranquility is what I longed to achieve.
