My husband is the editor-in-chief of our publishing company. I don’t have much to do with that part of our world. I just write. But occasionally I have to take a more active role, especially when he’s publishing a romance novel. A couple of years ago, he was working with Amanda Tru on the second […]
Sunday Edition
WE HAVE WINNERS!!!! Thanks to everyone who visited and commented during our 6th Birthday Bash, which ended on March 16. We’ll take a little break from our Florida trip today, but I’ll wrap it up next week. Because I know you care about my trip photos (almost) as much as you care about winners. (Right??? […]
Meet the Supporting Cast of LOOK FOR ME (Plus eARC #Giveaway)
When I was trying to figure out what to blog about today, it was a toss-up between writing about the current coronavirus pandemic from a Christian perspective and escaping into my latest novel that will be released in ten days on March 31, 2020. Since there’s so much scary news out in real life, how […]
He’s There in the Good and Bad Times.
What a difference a week makes! I wrote this post a little more than a week ago and the world we live in today was a very different place. I considered a rewrite but it’s still relevant. I hope you find the following post helpful and encouraging in some way in these uncertain times. I […]
Doing Life: Grace and Crazy
It’s Sunday as I sit here writing this. What a week it’s been. I can’t be the only person thinking that, either. It. Has. Been. A. Week. I’d loop you in on all the crazy that’s happening in my life at the moment, but that’s not the point of this post. We each have our […]
Of Elements & Experiments
by: Staci Stallings If you took high school Chemistry, you may recall how in lab you were given assignments in which you took various chemicals, mixed them a certain way, and their bonding created a different substance. Theoretically you could take 2 hydrogen atoms and mix them with 1 oxygen atom, and the result would […]
Dream Big by Mary Manners
As youngsters we are eager to dream big, make wishes, and take chances. Everything around us is shiny-new and full of glorious wonder. The night sky is alit with twinkling opportunities to boldly cast our desires to the heavens as we wish upon stars. We believe with our whole hearts that every desire, hope, and […]
The Inspiration in Inspirational Fiction
Like many Christian and inspirational authors, I like to start each of my books with a verse from Scripture that captures the theme of the book. Sometimes I know the theme verse before I start writing, but more often, it becomes clear as I write and see a theme appearing over and over in the […]
Sunday Edition
Welcome back to Florida! My husband and I visited for 12 days in June, 2019. Over the past two weeks, here at Inspy Romance, we’ve toured Castillo de San Marcos at St Augustine and had a look at some Florida shorebirds. Today we are going to enjoy some sea and sky, like this spot in […]
Learning to Roll With It (& #giveaway)
Back in October, I blogged about reconciling the differences between expectations and reality. I’d love to be able to say that now, six months later, I’ve got a handle on the changes that are churning through our family. But alas. My youngest ended up with a diagnosis of severe ADHD. I will admit not knowing […]
