January 30, 2024 by Laura Ashwood

What's in a Character; artist sketching people

Every time we open a novel, we’re not just diving into a story; we’re stepping into a world crafted with characters who show us both the struggles and joys of faith and love. These characters are more than mere fictional creations; they are reflections of deeper truths, resonating with our own experiences and beliefs. Today, […]

Characters of an Age

August 16, 2022 by Amy R Anguish

One of the “Big” birthdays is about to happen in my life. Though it doesn’t feel nearly as big as it did when I was in my twenties. Amazing how the number 40 loses its ability to scare a person the closer she draws to it. But it does have me thinking. Even though I […]

What Makes Characters Great?

June 30, 2022 by Tabitha Bouldin

What makes characters great? (And I don’t mean great as in a great person, though that’s a fun conversation too. I’m talking about writing characters who could walk off the page and into real life.) I’ve been thinking about that a lot lately as I work on another story. I’ve learned over the years of […]

Things Authors have to Google (and other ways we research)

June 11, 2020 by Tara Grace Ericson

Google is a writer’s best friend – or at least it seems that way sometimes! I’ve researched everything from bread baking techniques (for Danielle in Summer to Remember) to how to embezzle money from a doctor’s office (Spring Fever).

It’s Complicated… (interesting characters usually are) + cover reveal

February 11, 2020 by Jaycee Weaver

If you’ve been on social media at any point in the last decade, you’ve probably noticed at least one of your “friends” with the relationship status It’s Complicated.
