Hitting the Right Note

March 28, 2024 by Deb Kastner

In my brand new book Bonding with the Babies, my hero Frost and heroine Zooey have a unique way of sharing their love with each other and with their families. Frost, the sixth and final Winslow sibling in my Rocky Mountain Family series, plays guitar and piano without knowing a note of music, while Zooey […]

Romance, Romance

February 28, 2024 by Deb Kastner

What with Valentine’s Day being the past week, love seems to be on everyone’s mind. And as a romance author, love is on my mind all year round. For those of you with sweethearts, do you do anything special for Valentine’s Day? My father always gets my mom a special card and her favorite box […]

Inspy Romance

January 23, 2024 by Deb Kastner

As I was considering the topic for this month’s Inspy Romance blog, my mind wandered to the title of the blog itself. What does it mean that I write Inspy romance? Inspirational? Christian? What defines my novels as compared to others on the market? What do readers expect when they pick up a book written […]

Will you? Or I do…

December 28, 2023 by Deb Kastner

In my opinion, one of the most wonderful reasons to read (and write!) inspirational romances is the promise that no matter how deep the conflicts, how black the plot may become, there will be happiness and joy at the end. Because who doesn’t love a happy ending? (Well, other than my grandson and maybe Shakespeare, […]

An American Cowboy by Deb Kastner

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 […]

The Best Laid Plans by Deb Kastner

October 26, 2023 by Deb Kastner

I was working on a special post for the Inspy blog all about my cowboy grandfather. I gathered newspaper clippings and old photographs. I’m so excited to share this with you…and I will. But not today. I came down with COVID. Members of my family have suffered through several bouts, but this is my first, […]

From Everybody Dies to Happily Ever After by Deb Kastner

September 23, 2023 by Deb Kastner

Grab yourself a cup of coffee (or tea, if you prefer), sit back in a comfy chair, and let me tell you a story. Once upon a time there was a young woman, a senior in high school who dreamt of one day becoming an author. She was super stoked to have the opportunity to […]

Llama, Llama, Love My Mama

August 26, 2023 by Deb Kastner

Before baby Emily was born (she’s now 15 months old), we were shopping at a secondhand store when I laid eyes on a multi-colored stuffed llama, which I have since come to learn is a character from the video game Fortnite, although I was blissfully ignorant of that fact at the time. I snapped it […]

Gotcha! by Deb Kastner

July 27, 2023 by Deb Kastner

It can be quite overwhelming when an author is facing a completely blank page at the beginning of a novel. I know who the characters are and have lived with them for awhile in my head. I’ve sketched out at least a modicum of what is going to happen in the story. But here I […]

Gotta Read ‘Em All by Deb Kastner

June 28, 2023 by Deb Kastner

When it comes to streaming movies, I have a very strange habit, and it’s not your usual binge-every-season-of-a-show, although I occasionally do that, as well (SEALTeam, The Unit). For me, it’s all about the actors. When I find an actor whose work I particularly love, I will search out his/her filmography and watch every single […]
