St. Francis de Sales is the patron saint of writers. His being responsible for the conversion of thousands of Protestants to Catholicism led to his authorship of Introduction to the Devout Life.
“It is by testing the passions of the soul, one by one, that we ascertain our spiritual condition, just as one who plays the lute tries every string, touching those which are discordant, either raising or lowering them. Thus having tried our soul as to love, hate, desire, fear, hope, sadness and joy, if we find our strings out of tune for the melody we wish to raise, which is God’s Glory, we must tune them afresh with the help of His Grace, and the counsel of our spiritual father.” ~ Introduction to the Devout Life by Francis de Sales
