We’re about halfway through summer. My how time flies! Baby Emily is over a month old now and we just signed Anthony up at the nearby middle school. It’s been so crazy around here that I realize I’ve taken very few moments to just…well…be. July 22nd is National Hammock Day, which brings to mind relaxing […]
About Deb Kastner
Baby Love
A couple of years ago I wrote a series of books (starting with six and ending with nine) set in fictional Serendipity, Texas called Cowboy Country. The series premise was all about cowboys and babies—lots of babies. So, when I went to plan out my next six-book series, I shied away from babies, at least […]
PREORDERS AND A GIVEAWAY
Lately, with the various ins and outs of my life, writing new novels for Harlequin Love Inspired has taken a back seat to other projects, which means I don’t have as many release dates as I used to have. I know this phase of my life won’t last forever, but it sometimes feels like forever […]
National Look-Alike Day
April 20th is National Look-Alike Day, so I thought it would be the perfect time to talk about twins (and triplets, and quadruplets…) in romance. Mostly I’m thinking babies here, although I’ve read (and written) some wonderful twin stories with adults as the theme (Redeeming the Rancher and Mistletoe Daddy with twin heroines Alexis and […]
Five Things
Welcome to March! Raise your hand if you’re looking forward to spring. Here in Colorado snow took it’s sweet time coming but then has stayed with us ever since. I’m ready for green grass and flowers. We Kastners also in the middle of a massive decluttering project and packing up the rest of nearly everything […]
Imposter Syndrome plus a Giveaway by Deb Kastner
I’ve just put the final polishing touches on A Reason to Stay, Book Five in my Rocky Mountain Family series out August 23, 2022. Finishing the book always brings smiles, tears, a sense of relief and a tinge of grief, knowing I’ll have to “break up” with these characters in order to move on to […]
Snow Daze by Deb Kastner
Talk about crazy weather in the US and Canada. Places that never get snow—California, anyone—have been pounded, while Colorado waited…and waited…and waited for even a dusting. We made a new record this year, with a LACK of snowfall well into November, and even then it was less than a quarter of an inch and melted […]
Tis the Season…for Change
One thing to which I’ve always clung during the Christmas season has been our family’s Christmas traditions. We put up the tree the day after Thanksgiving and decorate the inside and outside of the house. Christmas music plays in the background. For the past few years, “family” has been my youngest daughter and my grandson, […]
Random Acts of Kindness
Be kind to one another, compassionate, forgiving one another as God has forgiven you in Christ. (Ephesians 4:32) Today is World Kindness Day. As an inspirational romance author, kindness is a theme I often address in my books, but even more so in my life. I’ve discovered a little kindness goes a long way, whether with […]
Writing Routine and a Giveaway
One of the questions I’m most frequently asked as a full-time author is what my work routine looks like, so today I thought I’d give you a small glimpse into my writing life. Today is National Coffee Day, which is the perfect day to talk about my routine. I am absolutely NOT a morning person […]
