by: Staci Stallings In the last book I wrote, “Who I am with You” that will be out in December, there is an element of what the heroine, Taylor Grayson, learns that has become relevant in my own writing life recently. It was a take-off on an analogy that says some people are “10-gallon” people. […]
Learning to Paint
by: Staci Stallings Life is interesting. First, back in 2014, my niece, Veronica, started coming every so often to talk about life. She, like many young people today, was trying to figure out college and how to get her feet on the ground. She was working through a lot of internal messaging that had culminated […]
Be Do Have–The Ultimate Lesson
by: Staci Stallings Many years ago I wrote an article for a blog called “Be Do Have.” It was about an insight I had recently had about life. In the article, I explained that most people in life get this backward. They believe that they need to have before they can do and they need […]

Talking to Myself
by: Staci Stallings I know I’m not the only one whose life got flip-turned upside down this last month, and I think it’s kind of ironic that my post would come out today—April 18, 2020. Literally one month after insanity took over in my world. Now I have been through my share of times that […]
The Truth about Lamp Lighting
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Racing Through Life
by: Staci Stallings I saw a post the other day on Facebook that said, “Only 45 more weeks until Christmas Day!” For the average person, they would probably laugh that off. For me, it literally caused a zing of anxiety to zap through my body. I’ve told you here about my son’s Christmas light show, […]
Mirror Mirror, From the Story
Author’s Note: There are some scenes that just stay with you forever. This is one of my favorites. Enjoy… It seemed the height of insanity to be out here on a vacant field celebrating when he hadn’t heard from her in 48 hours. Why did everyone else seem to think it should be so easy […]
