Why do you write the kind of books you do?   I want to uplift readers and share with them the wonderful goodness that God has allowed me to see. I want readers to feel hope and to know that there’s always an answer to their troubles. I also want to entertain them, make them laugh, make them think, and make them swoon. I am also passionate about purity and sexual integrity. I have been married for almost twenty-five yea...

Welcome, Staci. Tell us a little about yourself. I'm a stay-at-home mom with three kids, a husband, and a writing addiction. At least that's where it started out.  Then God took it beyond my imagination, and in the last year, I became a #1 Best Selling author!  Fantastic! Congratulations! Lots of writers were avid readers as children. Were you? When I was very young (3 and 4), my grandmother kept me during the day.  She had a stack of about 10 books that we cycled through, reading before naptime.  My favorite was always Cinderella.  When I got into junior high, I got hooked on The Sweet Dreams teen romance books.  I read them, collected them, re-read them, and pretty much wore them out.  The first one has the cover hanging on by one little strip of glue. Ah yes. Those are the best kind. Tell us about your books. What's your latest about? The very latest book I put out is called True Power & Real Peace.   That book took me by comple...

She also shares her favorite Bible verse and well as her mother's recipe for Apple Crisp. NOURISH THE BODY - The Apple Crisp                                                When I pondered what favorite recipe to share, I thought about the characters in my latest book, Bluebird of Brockport , A Novel of the Erie Canal, and asked myself what they might have been able to create on an Erie Canal boat in 1830. The answer came to me fairly quickly: Apple Crisp. It’s extremely simple and all of the ingredients would have been readily available in the early nineteenth century. I grew up in wes...
