Amber Stokes...

is a college student at Corban University. She is an English major who loves to write poetry, short stories, novels (her first manuscript is still a work-in-progress), and, of course, blog posts! It is her desire to follow God's will for her life, wherever He leads her.

From being valedictorian of her graduating class (McKinleyville High School, class of 2009) and graduating with an International Baccalaureate Diploma, to earning her black belt in Jujitsu, Amber has worked hard to excel in life. She has participated in choir, her high school's Key Club, and Corban's production of State Fair (Fall 2009). Her favorite activities include reading Christian fiction, writing, and spending time with family and close friends. To learn more about Amber and her work, visit her Seasons of Humility.

Candice Speare...

is a multi-published author, recently married, with two last names. As Mrs. Prentice, she's a wife, mom, and friend and busies herself doing all the things that fall under those headings. Like cooking. One of her favorite cable channels is the Food Network.

When she's writing, she can be found in the office that she shares with her husband, slouched in her chair, keyboard in her lap, and feet up on a little stool.

Laughing is among her favorite things to do, and she endeavors to do so as much as possible. She believes humor is one of God’s gifts to the human race to help us survive. Laughter can even change the course of an argument. When we laugh, we win, even in the midst of sorrow--and especially in the darkest of circumstances.

The joy of her life is seeing bruised, brokenhearted people healed and restored. That's why she writes inspirational fiction. She hopes while people are entertained by her stories, they will also catch a glimpse of God’s love and how He restores lives. Learn more about Candice by visiting her at candicemillerspeare.com
