Howdy,

    >> help save
    USAGE:
        SAVE where value /header header-data

    DESCRIPTION:
         Saves a value or a block to a file or url.
         SAVE is a native value.

    >> help mold
    USAGE:
        MOLD value

    DESCRIPTION:
         Converts a value to a REBOL-readable string.
         MOLD is a native value.

    >> help load
    USAGE:
        LOAD source /header /next /library /markup

    DESCRIPTION:
         Loads a file, URL, or string. Binds words to global context.
         LOAD is a native value.

    >> load {"stringa" "stringb" "stringc"}
    == ["stringa" "stringb" "stringc"]

So you can do this....

    >> save %your-file1.txt ["string a" "string b" "string c"]
    >> print load %your-file1.txt
    string a string b string c

Or this (which retains the containing block in the file)...

    >> write %your-file2.txt mold ["string a" "string b" "string c"]
    >> print load %your-file2.txt
    string a string b string c
