Confession: I love writing about opposites in my romances. Maybe partially because my husband and I in many ways are SUPER opposite. He loves tea (like, obsessively so, like we have a wall of shelves devote to loose leaf tea and “teaware” in our house…) and I love Dr. Pepper. (I don’t have a wall […]

Ten Tips for a Fantastic Romance
Today marks 19 years since I walked down the aisle and said “I do” to the man of my dreams. I was a whole whoppin’ 18 years old, but y’all. My heart was head-over-heels. So today, I thought I’d share a few tips for lasting 19 years and being more in love than ever before. […]
Happily-Mostly-After – plus Giveaway!
Sometimes, I feel like happily-ever-after romance gets a bad rap. “It’s not realistic,” the nay-sayers proclaim. “Just wait until AFTER the honeymoon,” they warn. “Endings shouldn’t always be happy!” they demand. And sure, I get it. Relationships take a lot of work, and too many marriages these days end up broken and dissolved. I’d bet […]
Once Upon A Laugh – 8 Novellas, 1 (wildly) Wonderful Sample!
It’s here!!

Romantic Comedy: Is it all just a bunch of fluff?
Hello. My name is Krista Phillips, and I write non-fluffy romantic comedy. I know… what? There IS such a thing? How can that possibly be? For those who may not know it exists, I thought I’d enlighten you today! I like to say I write filled-cupcake fiction. Fluffy (fun) on the outside, but when you […]
An “Idol”lic Romance
Please note: I know that it is spelled idyllic. Forgive me a little punny subject line! I watched the new season of American Idol on and off this year, and Maddie and Caleb were always 2 of my favorites. My romantic-leaning heart just about jumped and cheered when they let the cat out of the […]
A Trip Down Memory Lane
My hubby and I started to clean out the garage last weekend (it’s pretty bad… it’ll take a few weekends or more to finish!) and I came across an old journal of mine. It was from 1996… I was 15 years old that year. It was the ONLY journal in my life that I actually […]
Let’s Talk Weddings!
Y’all. I love weddings. I was married when I was only 18 years old and I LOVED my wedding. We were married in a country church and it was pretty simple. My colors were navy, silver and yellow. My flowers were daisies. I fell in love with the first dress I put on, and thankfully […]
Meet Will and Hanna
I love my characters. Over the course of the months/years it takes to write, edit and publish a novel, they truly do grow near and dear to me, which seems weird and slightly psychotic when you think about it, considering they ARE fake people, right? So I thought I’d introduce you to two of my […]
Beware: Are Authors Eavesdropping on You?
Confession: I am a chronic eavesdropper. I know, I know. We’re told not to do it. It’s rude. But y’all. I’m a writer. I eavesdrop and people watch pretty much everywhere. Many of my books are started (or writer’s block unjammed) by a tiny gem of an idea I hear in common places like writing […]
