Using story to connect YOU to the Master Storyteller

Disclosure and Policies

If you have questions about things like guest posting or the kinds of links I share, this disclosure and policies page should help with those kinds of questions.

Disclosure: Some links on this website may be affiliate links, and as such, I may receive compensation from the retailer indicated for linking to their product.

Note:  I DO NOT link to products that I do not recommend. I may mention them, but if there is no link, I either forgot or there is a reason I chose not to recommend it.

Policies

If you’re curious about guest posting, commenting, email, or other policies, you’ll find them here. I tried to keep them simple, straightforward, and free of legalese.

Commenting:

Comments are not only welcome on this site, they’re encouraged on every post.  If you see that comments aren’t turned on for a particular post, please zip me an email at [email protected]. I’ll be happy to take a look at it.

That said, I do have a couple of limitations.  Keep it clean (no foul language or smutty/violent word pictures), and friendly.  Feel free to disagree with another commenter, but do not attack the person.  Be kind.

Email:

I have two email categories to address.  First.  When you email me, I USUALLY get right back to you.  If I have a book releasing soon (or if I’ve decided to do something crazy like add filters that only end up losing all the good emails and keeping the extraneous), it might take a day or a week.  But most of the time, it’s within 24 hours.

And, when you share your email with me (either by direct emailing or through my newsletter), that email is kept safe.  I do not share it, even with people who I know should have it without your permission.

Advertising:

I only accept very limited amounts of advertising at a time and only things directly related to this site. So Christian fiction authors are welcome to submit their book, a 1-3  line synopsis, and request a spot in my blog sidebar.  I will only accept one at a time and only those books that I think my readership will enjoy.

Guest Posts:

I absolutely welcome guest posts! Suggested ideas are:

  • Authors- Posts about your writing process on a particular book, character reviews, your dream review, your research on a particular book, why you write Christian fiction, et cetera are all welcome.
  • Guest Bloggers Welcom

    Reviewers- Love to review books but don’t want the hassle of a website?  Would you like to get your feet wet but aren’t sure?  Want to be on a launch team but you don’t have time for regular blogging?  Submit your book review proposal to me.  Tell me the book, the Amazon-equivalent star rating (loved, liked, okay, didn’t like, hated) and we’ll see what we can do!

  • Christian Living-  I’ll consider any topics related to the Christian life and practical applications for the reader to apply. I do require that distinction be made between Biblical principles and the methods of applying them. Posts elevating method over principle (requiring the wearing of purple socks over the need to keep your feet warm, so to speak) will not be accepted as written.
  • The Christian fiction industry- Any posts about Christian fiction and the direction of the industry that would be interesting and relevant to readers rather than just other authors would be perfect.

Please use this form to submit your guest post proposal:

[contact-form to=’[email protected]’ subject=’Guest Post Proposal’][contact-field label=’Name’ type=’name’ required=’1’/][contact-field label=’Email’ type=’email’ required=’1’/][contact-field label=’Website’ type=’url’/][contact-field label=’Comment’ type=’textarea’ required=’1’/][/contact-form]

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 541: A Chat with Demi Griffin
byChautona Havig

What happens when an author writes an intense epic fantasy and collapses exhausted at the end? She writes a romantasy trilogy, of course! Listen in as Demi Griffin and I chat about her newest series and why you should read it (I can’t wait!)

note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.

Okay, stop right now and head over and check out the hardback cover! Isn’t it FABULOUS?? EEEP!

This series has everything I think people are looking for, fantasy and romance combined without all the “spicy smut.” Add faith and… WHEEEEEEEEE!

Cerulean Rose by Demi Griffin

EVERY ROSE HAS ITS THORNS. Hidden in a tiny cottage away from the ordinary existence of Cerulean’s citizens, Aural lived a simple life with her father in Sabean Woods. When he is struck by a serious illness, that ordinary life suddenly became extraordinary.

In search of a physician, Aural breaks her promise never to leave the woods. When her path crosses with a Mystic, the manipulative Duchess, and the Prince of Cerulean, Aural realizes something beyond her simple quest to help her dying father has mapped out her journey.

An ancient legend about a brotherly rivalry that resulted in tragedy stirs up the Fates guarding Cerulean. If the Cerulean Rose doesn’t bloom again, the kingdom is destined to perish.

A wild path filled with romance, mystery, and intrigue shapes Aural’s heart in ways she could not have imagined as she gets sucked into the legend. Would it be enough to restore the foundation of true love that established the kingdom of Cerulean hundreds of years ago? Could a simple girl satisfy the Fates, capture a prince’s heart, overcome a king’s prejudice, and save Cerulean’s Rose?

Learn more about Demi on her WEBSITE and follow her on GoodReads and BookBub.

Reposted from @whitecrown_publishing It's time for Reposted from @whitecrown_publishing It's time for another cover reveal!!! And we think this one is just stunning!!

The Promise of a Princess, the third and final book in the Royals of Andelar series by Joy Crain, releases November 2026 and is available for preorder now. 

👑👑👑

Princess Genevieve’s life seems like a dream. She has a loving family, a devoted fiancé, and a future set in stone. But beneath the perfection lies a secret she has guarded for years, one that could shatter everything if it were ever revealed. When an ancient doctrine resurfaces and threatens the very foundation of the monarchy, Genevieve is forced to face a choice that will cost her more than she ever imagined.

DePeaux men love for life. They only ever give their heart away once. Julian knows his father’s oft-quoted words to be true, because his heart belongs to a woman too. A woman who long ago stole his heart, captured beneath the oak tree as they painted and grew up together. But he can never have her. Because another man’s ring lies on her finger.

With time running out and the truth impossible to ignore, Genevieve and Julian are drawn together in ways that challenge everything they have ever believed. In a world bound by tradition and expectation, they must decide if love is worth the risk of losing their future, their duty, and each other.

Preorder your copy today!
