by: Staci Stallings The Bible says that God’s Word is a lamp at my feet. My dad always said that God put the lamp at our feet and not on our head. That means we’re supposed to focus on the next step, not how we’re getting all the way down the tunnel. I’ve thought about […]
My Second Chance at Romance
There was a time when I quit writing romance. Ten years ago, I sold my debut novel, Love Finds You in Sun Valley, Idaho, then my husband left me. Being that I’d sold the book on proposal alone, I had to write a love story as my own marriage fell apart. I didn’t believe in […]

What’s Your Superpower?
by: Staci Stallings I’m elbow-deep in The Imagination Series—writing Book 8 now. Book 7 is on preorder. Book 6 just released. So I’ve been thinking a lot about superpowers. In the series, there are six main-ish characters. They are friends from high school. Each one has a superpower, and the idea of the series is […]
A Dog’s Love (+ a Giveaway)
Do you love dogs? I know there are cat lovers out there too, but in my experience there’s really nothing that quite compares with the love of a dog! As I was growing up, my family had several dogs. My parents got Goldie when I was a baby so she and I grew up […]
A Day in the Life of Axel…and a #Giveaway
I don’t know about you, but animals are a huge part of my life. My husband and I live on a mini-farm we’ve named Manners Manor. We have a dog, two cats, chickens, an aquarium full of fish, and a stocked pond. I thought it would be fun to step inside my dog Axel’s mind […]
Prepared By God
I do a weekly interview of Christian authors on my website. I didn’t come up with the interview questions — I asked readers in several different forums what they’d ask their favorite author if they had the chance. Then, I compiled all of the questions and hand them to each of my guests and let […]
Doing What You’re Good At
We all have things we can do well and other things that we struggle to do. I can do a few things okay. I’m better than most at some, but then there are others that I don’t do well at all. And yet, we are just as we are supposed to be. The way God […]
I Believe
By: Staci Stallings After watching a motivational speech the other day about purpose and what you believe and how that impacts your work and how that influences your life, I got to thinking about my writing. What do I believe about people, about life, about love, about faith, about hope…? And on and on. What […]
The Gap
by: Staci Stallings So the other night my 16-year-old son, the light guy, sat in his chair in the living room perplexed beyond measure. His quandary? He’d been working for a couple of weeks on a prototype for a new light design for the Christmas light show at our house in our yard. The design […]
