November 27, 2023 by Deb Kastner

I have many happy memories of visiting my maternal grandparents as a child. Inside the house on my grandparents’ wall was my grandfather’s impressive prize spur collection. Avid reader and horse lover that I was, I was always drawn to the Western Horseman magazines spread across the living room coffee table. I’d read them from […]

Story Inspiration: The real rodeo cowboy who inspired the book

September 30, 2023 by Tara Grace Ericson

In the summer of 2022, I created a side character… (in the book Blind Date with a Hero), Jason Keen was Jared’s wayward brother, a rough-and-tumble rodeo cowboy living in Western Colorado. I named him Jason in honor of my own cousin, Jason — the toughest cowboy I know. He’s fifteen or so years older […]

Being a Single Dad by Travis Cavanagh

January 14, 2021 by Valerie Comer

My author, Valerie Comer, asked me to share my parenting journey with you today. So, uh, here I am, not that I’m an expert. She says my story is in the book Give Me Another Chance, Cowboy, but I don’t see how it could be, not with that title, because that would be Dakota speaking, […]

Have you ever tucked a dream in the back of your mind as something you’ll do someday, but not today? That was me with indie publishing. As you may know, I write for Harlequin Love Inspired. I enjoy it and intend to keep writing my series romances, but I have been envious of the indie […]

I can’t do this…

January 14, 2017 by Carolyne Aarsen

I spend hours and days and weeks figuring a story out. Plan and plot and scheme. Fill out my charts. Figure out Goals and Motivation and Conflict. Delve into backstory. Bring my hero and heroine together and find out what brings them there and what keeps them apart. What will they learn from the events […]
