HELLO

Meet Staci

Staci grew up in rural east Tennessee. When she was young her family didn’t get cable, only public television, so she knows a heck of a lot about Julia Child, classic movies, Sesame Street and “The Mull’s Singing Convention.” That’s a wordy way of saying there was not much shaking in her town. Out of boredom, and her parents having no desire to entertain an only child every minute, she was taught to read when she was four and then she couldn’t be stopped! Just anything: her grandmother’s copies of The Enquirer, Agatha Christie, smutty romances, biographies. Appropriate to whatever age she was or not, if it had printed words on it, she was reading it.

She began writing in third grade. She tried to stop several times during life’s BIG EVENTS (marriage, baby, career), but…a writer’s gotta write. Staci often quotes the amazing Toni Morrison, “I wrote my first book because I wanted to read it.” 

Staci lives in Atlanta, Georgia with her handsome and brilliant husband, who often has no clue what she is talking about when she plots a novel out loud, but always faithfully supports her wild ideas, her funny and talented ballet-dancing daughter, and a goofball pit bull named Ahsoka, after the Star Wars character. 

She would love to hear from you at [email protected].   

She would also like you to buy her novella, Always!
