Frank Creed

Frank Creed edited the summary of Frank Creed Friday, December 3, 2010.

• At the age seven,When Frank was age seven, his divorced, working mother sent him to a creative writing program at the 
  local library. From this tender age he knew that he wanted to be an author. In
  High School, Marsha Stewart, his creative writing teacher, coached him to a first-place tie at 
  the UW-Whitewater Literary contest, where hundreds of students from three states competed.
  
  His thirty-three years of life since then have been filled with the tough times and tragedies 
  necessary to torture a serious writer's soul. He dropped out of college to elope. He worked no 
  job that paid more than $8.50/hour until 1995. Divorced by twenty-two, he lived as a hedonist 
  until his mid-twenties. It was then that a friend introduced him to the writings of Biblical 
  Philosopher, Francis Schaeffer.
  
  Frank had only been a reader of fantasy and science fiction novels, but Schaeffer's application 
  of thesis-antithesis/ classical-reasoning to the sphere of morality changed Mr. Creed forever. 
  His reading-list suddenly launched into theology, philosophy and history of western civilization.
  
  It was in this year that his sister joined a Grotto of Anton LaVey’s Church of Satan. Her soul at 
  stake, Mr. Creed entered into a written debate with her Satanic High Priest. During this time, 
  he volunteered an article to the Grotto's desktop published magazine, Diabolic Creation. After
  publication, he exchanged letters with readers who'd responded to his work.
  
  In the years that followed, Mr Creed debated a variety of worldviews on internet discussion 
  boards, and has since then, found no credible counter to the Cosmological or Axiological
  arguments for the existence of God.
  
  On May 9th of 1998, Frank Creed survived a high-speed head-on collision that broke him in half 
  and induced a severe closed head injury. After living in a delusional state for two weeks, it was 
  the doctors opinion that with years of therapy, Mr. Creed would only recover sixty percent of 
  his mental capacity.
  
  Then his pastor visited.
  
  They enjoyed a lucid conversation, and prayed. When Frank Creed awoke the next morning his 
  delusional state had been healed. A fake hip and pelvis likely dooms him to a wheelchair
  by age fifty, and his physical condition severely challenged him in his profession as an auto-
  worker at Subaru of Indiana automotive. Unfortunately, when the recession in 2008 struck,
  Frank lost his factory job and turned to a full-time writing career.
  
  Frank Creed was the head critiquer at TheFinishers.biz, a premier manuscript evaluation service, 
  as well as novelist, speaker, and workshop presenter. In 2010, however, Frank rededicated
  himself to his own fiction. With his usual positive attitude, Frank sees his job loss as His way
  of directing Frank's life.
  
  Frank feels not only that the troubles in his life have refined him as a writer, but the closed 
  head injury was a blessing in disguise. Before the auto-accident he’d begun his fantasy novella 
  White Iron, which meandered and jammed, but, post-accident, everything flowed. The course 
  of his life at that moment changed. He even married his editor!
  
  "The influence of Francis Schaeffer, Ravi Zacharias and C. S. Lewis has been profound. How’s 
  this: collectively, I owe my salvation to these men. However, I have a twelfth grade education 
  and am self-educated. It took re-reading for me to be able to grasp their Theological concepts. 
  I looked again at Lewis’ high prose fiction and understood my purpose in life."
