Anointed Fire Writer's Guide by Tiffany Kameni

ANOINTED FIRE MAGAZINE WRITER'S GUIDE

INTRODUCTION Thank you for your interest in writing for Anointed Fire Magazine. I am truly humbled to not only be a part of such a blessed assignment, but to be the vessel chosen to begin the journey. Now, in this guide, you will discover, as many have discovered about me, that I don't believe in speaking from a marketing face...I believe in speaking the truth. Why? Marketing is full of lies, planted to attract mass numbers and when you use lies, you attract liars and all types of misguided souls. Now, for writers, I want to attract those of you who are bold enough to tell the truth, without worrying about what society says or thinks, but do so within the parameters set forth by GOD. I want to attract those that work under the spirit of excellence only, those whose lights are shining bright so that the world will see and want to know who is our GOD. I want to attract those souls who have a love for GOD so strong that they'd go to the ends of the earth to bring those souls back to HIM. In doing so, we will attracted misguided souls that want to be saved and we will sharpen one another, as we've been called to do. I do not want to attract those that are set on becoming gospel celebrities...whose only interest in writing is to step up a few more feet in their 'career.' I do not want to attract selfish souls who believe that their salvation is enough and in that theory 'every man for himself.' Some of you are bursting with WORD. I know. You're talkative because you were called to teach and you're a faithful soul because you've tasted and seen that the LORD is good. It is you that I want for this project because GOD is taking this to the top and everything and everyone who does not truly love HIM, HE, HIMSELF, as the BOSS will sift through. Of course, HE has given me the first line of defense, which is discernment, but should someone get past that guard, I know and trust that HE will show them the door. And yes, your lifestyle does matter! Yes, your image does matter!!! I am not going to go through the face of pretense acting as if it is okay to go out and do the things that GOD has told us not to do and then come back to minister to others to do otherwise. Now, in some of your churches....you gladly put these souls in the front when they should be in the back going through deliverance, but praise be to GOD, I don't have to allow that. I know that we all fall down and get up, but I am not talking to those souls.....I am speaking to those of you who live in your sin. There is a difference between sinning and being a sinner. There is a difference between falling down and staying down. I may sin by worrying or doubting GOD, I may sin by saying something I shouldn't have said or doing something I shouldn't have done, but if I do, I know that three things must happen: 1. I must repent. 2. I must ask GOD to remove those ways from me. 3. I must walk in wisdom, avoiding that path from that day forth, so that I may not fall down in that trap once again. Now, being a sinner, is, for example, someone that has a girlfriend or boyfriend and they are living a life of fornication. Or someone that lies...meaning, it is a lifestyle... While GOD loves us all, HE told us to remove the speck or plank in our eyes before we attempt to remove it from someone else's. That way, we too, can see clear enough to do so. Let me share two examples of what happens. Let's say you had an advice column or you were ministering on a particular topic. Let's just say a girl has written to say that she fornicated and she's feeling grievous about it.

ÂŠ 2010 - 2010 Anointed Fire Magazine- AnointedFire.com

Someone that has fallen and gotten up again may minister this way: (ADVISER #1) “Look, I know how it feels to fall down in that way, but I am here to tell you, you can get back up again...right now, at this moment because GOD is a forgiving GOD. You've done well...you've confessed your sin, now, don't let the devil keep you bound by convincing you that you are not of the Fold. You are! That's why you are feeling convicted! So, now, that you have repented, avoid the road that led you to that sin and find yourself on the road to righteousness once again. It's not a lonely road...you'll find many souls wondering near that road looking for someone to pick them up and encourage them...and they too, can encourage you.

Someone that lives in sin may minister this way: (ADVISER #2) “Girl, please. Ain't nobody perfect. Shoot, I live with my boyfriend and can't nobody judge me, but GOD. I pray everyday and ask HIM to forgive me, but I know that I'm not a murderer or a thief so, HE doesn't condemn me for this. We are gonna get married anyway, one day. Girl, you can keep seeing the guy and if it happens again, GOD knows your heart, so don't sweat cause HE knows that you want to be right. I don't know anyone that can be celibate for too long anyway. I believe that GOD doesn't condemn us for laying down with someone we love, especially when HE know that you are gonna marry the guy anyway. I believe that mess came from people, that's why I don't listen to them!

As you can see, there are two conflicting suggestions. One was given based on the WORD of GOD and one was given by the flesh-for the flesh, which is why, the adviser that was still in that sin should not be in a position to teach anyone until she, herself is teachable because isn't it written that fornicators will not enter heaven? And what about liars? So, Adviser #2 not only encourage that sin, but she also lied on the LORD by saying that HE doesn't condemn us for it...and since her bible is different from the Holy Bible, she's obviously not ready to stand on the platform as a teacher of holiness. Anyhow, saints, we have to love GOD enough to be righteous and we have to love HIM enough to be bold enough to speak the truth. If that's you, continue on through this guide! I am truly blessed to have your interest and would be even more blessed to have you as one of the writers!!!

ABOUT ANOINTED FIRE MAGAZINE Anointed Fire Magazine is a face. It is a face of love...a face that shines the light of GOD to the world. It is a magazine anointed to encourage and minister. It is the coming together of many souls that love the LORD, who are called or chosen by HIM to lead HIS flock. Anointed Fire is the one publication that brings everything holy under one roof. We want to focus on ministering. We want to focus on propelling holy entertainment, shedding light on the joy that GOD speaks of in HIS WORD. Our face is the many souls that have come together to write, draw...or whatever it is that you are called to do. We, together are one face... we are blemish free because we are called to holiness. The blood of JESUS was and is our bleaching creme and now that we have been set free, our face is radiant in itself. We are the iron, called to sharpen one another, the up-lifters, called to uplift our brethren, we are witnesses of the WORD, confirming that what GOD has spoken is true because we've not only read it, we've lived it and we live in that truth. What we are here to do is stand on the sidelines and feed our brethren. You know how, on a mission, you set a table with food and this long line of souls stand before you, with bowls and plates in their hands, waiting for their chance to get a meal? Well, we come forward with a different kind of food...one that can sustain them when they have no natural food. That food is the WORD of GOD. We stand on the front lines, going into warfare for our brothers and sisters, placing the weak at the back so that we may go and strengthen them so that they too, may one day, come to the front line. We stand on HIS WORD and we shine the light on those whose light is shining before man so that they may glorify GOD. Anointed Fire magazine will: 1. Minister (Encourage-Teach-Live It.) 2. Interview (Bring attention to those who encourage, teach and live it.) 3. Entertain (Show that we don't need alcohol, flashing lights and drugs to have a good time. All we need is the HOLY GHOST.)

ÂŠ 2010 - 2010 Anointed Fire Magazine- AnointedFire.com

EXPECTATIONS & REQUIREMENTS 1. First and foremost, you must be Christian because this is a Christian publication. This is not a religious publication. 2. You must be someone that lives in your Christianity and not use it as an umbrella while you live outside of it. 3. For your main photo: Every photo that is displayed in this magazine must be one that speaks 'holiness.' For writers: Men, please send in photos of yourself in dress attire...a tie or bow is good...well groomed. Ladies, please send in photos of yourself in dress attire窶馬o cleavage, please. All main photos must be professional photos. For every other photo of yourself: As long as it is clear, it can go in your slide-show. No photos of cleavage, derrieres, thighs, or any sexually or sensually motivated or driven images will be posted anywhere on the site. Guys, no 'gangsta' poses or prideful looking images will be posted anywhere on the site...men of GOD should look like they want to pray for you, not shank you. Women of GOD should look like they want to pray for you and not prey on you. 4. If you write an article (interview) on an individual, they must submit professional photos. No low resolution shots will be added, since the magazine 1. operates in excellence and 2. will be available for print media. You can suggest that they go to Wal-Mart and take advantage of the $4.99 offer. They can, however, send in, high megapixel images for their secondary shots....like pictures of them in the field of their assigned ministries. Minimum megapixel requirement is 8, but their main photo must be professional. 5. No profanity. It's not cute, holy or funny. 6. No violent articles or images. 7. No sexually explicit or suggestive images or speech. 8. No articles about yourself. You may occasionally include an example, using something you've experienced, in your articles, but if you want to dedicate an article to yourself, you can use your blog to do so. You may leave link references to your blog in your articles, from time to time. 9. On your page, I will include links to your websites and FB pages. If the content on those pages include sexually explicit or demonstrative images or wording, violent images and/or wording or a different ministry than that of JESUS CHRIST, the link will not be posted and you may be prohibited from writing for Anointed Fire. We want representatives of CHRIST...not only by word, but by lifestyle. 10. No gossip allowed. 11. All writings submitted to Anointed Fire should be exclusively for Anointed Fire and used only on the Anointed Fire website. Any violators of this policy will be excluded as one of the writers for Anointed Fire. 12. Please do not use images that you do not have permission to use. The writer is solely responsible for whatever photo(s) that he/she submits. 13. All articles must be at least 500 words...double spaced between sentences. 14. Since we do not have an editor as of now, you must edit your own articles. We will have an editor handy for those of you who feel that you need an editor, however, he or she may charge you for the work. In this guide, you will find links to free editing websites and spell check sites. 15. You must promote your own link to your articles. We will simply promote the sites, but personal links are to be promoted by whomever they are assigned to. 16. You can (and are encouraged to) send mp3 files of sermons and music to be placed in your article...or on your page. You may also send an introduction for yourself in mp3 format. 17. You can send videos to be placed in your articles...or on your page. (Please contact me before doing this, so that we can explore the options. 18. No plagiarism allowed. You will be held responsible legally and morally should you plagiarize. ﾂｩ 2010 - 2010 Anointed Fire Magazine- AnointedFire.com

19. All articles must be sent in at least 5 days before the magazine runs. 20. You are not required to come unto the conference calls unless they are coded 'red' for emergency, however, I encourage you to come on all. We may have a conference call once a month. 21. Anyone that wants to submit a comment to your article, will do so on your blog page. You may comment on another AF writer's articles, however, no bickering will be allowed. If you don't agree with another writer and feel that the content of their article goes outside of what the bible teaches us, please contact me so that I may review the article and if necessary, I will remove the article. 22. Every writer must submit a $2.00 registration fee. This money will not, however, go into my pockets, but instead, it will pay for the domain name for your blog. Every domain name will begin with www.anointedfire, followed by a '-' symbol and your name. For example, mine would be www.anointedfire-tiffanykameni.info. The reason that you are paying this fee and not Anointed Fire is, there will be many who will come along that say that would like to write for Anointed Fire, however, they may change their mind before they begin or after a few articles. It's too expensive to buy domain names for all of these characters, therefore, I see that is better that the writer do so. Should the writer decide to leave Anointed Fire, they will not retain use of the domain name, since anything they use it for will be reflective of Anointed Fire. Instead, the domain will be deleted as well as the email address associated with it that domain. This too, will ensure that everyone that applies to write for Anointed Fire is somewhat serious. I mean, $2.00 won't say they are all the way serious, but anyone that 'knows himself/herself' and realizes that they have a tendency to start and stop projects may be somewhat swayed by the gesture. Do not go and purchase the domain name on your own or it will not be accepted. Of course, again, the reasoning behind this is if someone decides to stop writing for Anointed Fire, we would not want them to use that domain name to promote anything unrelated to Anointed Fire, by using our name. You may not, but there are many that will. 23. Anointed Fire's trademark should be in full effect by mid-November 2010 or early December 2010. Therefore, if you go out and purchase a domain name with Anointed Fire in the name, you will be advised to cease and desist using the name. So, don't waste your money. 24. You are not to use the name Anointed Fire, any of it's writer's name or any of it's content on our outside of the site, unless it is to promote the magazine. You may not copy and paste an article, instead, you may link back to the article, if you are trying to promote it. 25. All audio submissions must be clear!!! All video submissions must be professional quality. No static filled audios or blurry videos will be posted. Remember, we are doing this in excellence! 26. You may send in audio submissions, however, you must include at minimum, one written article each month. All audio submissions must be in mp3 format. I suggest, if you have no way to record yourself, yet you desire to send in audio, that you purchase a digital voice recorder. A DVR allows you to record your voice clearly and the file is automatically rendered in mp3 format. You can then email the files. Please note that audio articles will not be included in any print media. 27. All audio interviews (not sermons or messages) must be typed as well.

Please note that by submitting the application to Anointed Fire Magazine, you are agreeing to the terms and conditions that are set forth in this guide. This guide has been dated and when it has been updated, we will submit to you an updated version, whereas, your initials will be needed to verify that you have read and agree with the terms and conditions in the newly updated guide. You must be 18 years of age or older to write for the publication. If you are at least 16, you may write for the publication, if you have a minimum of 3.5 G.P.A. You must get permission from a parent or guardian to write for Anointed Fire Magazine if you are under the age of 18. Anointed Fire is not and should not be looked upon as a job. There is no wages for writing for Anointed Fire, however, there will be several programs initiated for all AF writers so that they may earn some money. You must have a Paypal account to receive any monies. Readers will have the ability to submit donations to all writers. The initial rule was: Writers would be able to go and choose individuals to write articles or conduct interviews with and the subject would not have to pay any fee, if they were chosen. However, if someone wanted to be featured in the magazine and were not chosen, they would pay the fee associated with each given page. Well, there were loopholes in this ruling that would've left the door open for the enemy, since all writers will have their Paypal links listed on their page and would be able to accept donations. An example is: If a front page listing is $800, but the writer had the ability to write for that individual for free, by simply saying that they chose this individual, yet they charged, let's say $400 to this person to write the article, AF would have no knowledge of this transaction since we cannot and do not want to access anyone's Paypal account. Therefore, the new rule is: Only AF can send individuals to you that you can write for or conduct an interview with. Only AF can and will choose people, ministries or businesses to be listed freely. AF will, however, upon request, allow each writer to write an article or conduct an interview with one individual, ministry, or business a month..in addition to their regularly scheduled article, however, the writer does not and should not charge the subject. If they send in a donation to that writer, that's their choice. For all articles that you write on individuals, businesses, or ministries where a profit is turned, you will receive 50% of the article's fee. Meaning, if being listed on page 12 is $250, you will receive $125 for writing the article.

MEMBER AWARDS (As a writer, photographer, sketcher, etc., for Anointed Fire, you are a member of the Anointed Fire family. However, to enjoy member awards, you must be an active member for a total of 3 months, with each quarter ending with an increase in member awards.) A written statement, detailing all of your member award packages will be sent out no later than December 1, 2010. Awards will include: • $$ off Web Design & Logo/Seal Design from www.tiffanykameni.com • $$ off Domain Names. • Free Domain Names. • Member contests where awards given will range from $$$ off services, free web design, to laptop computers!!! • $$$ off Professional photography. • Dedicated articles for you and your ministry (front page). • Gift certificates. • Cell phones. • Professional image graphics. • Free phone numbers. • Free video commercials created by professionals!!! • And much-much-much more!!! MY NOTE: The gist of it is: GOD wants the best of you!!! I like to think of it this way. If GOD told you to go and build a city for HIS people, where HE will live amongst them, would you build a shack filled city to save yourself time and money? Many people do that right now with their assigned ministries. They put in just enough to say they've given, but when we read our bibles, we can never find a story where something was built and was dedicated to GOD in haste and without excellence. What Cain tried to offer GOD was not the best of the flock, he just grabbed one that he wouldn't mind losing and GOD did not accept this. Why? Because as vessels, we push out and reflect what is deposited into us, otherwise, we are broken vessels, consuming our very own seed and expecting GOD to move when we refuse to move. So, whatever you do or send to this magazine, and whatever you do in your assigned ministries, do it in love. We are coming together to win souls for CHRIST and what we build today, tomorrow and forever, will give glory unto GOD because we will put more than just work into it, we'll deposit our love into everything that we touch. These are the characters that Anointed Fire wants on board. If that's you, let me be the first to welcome you on.
