Serena McDaniels has a loving husband and a new home. But there's one dream
that remains just out of reach. When she left a high-profile advertising agency
to pursue her dreams of having a family, Serena never imagined that the stress
of her husband's pastorate and their desire to follow God's will might delay
their dreams of becoming parents. And when a dear friend makes a life-altering
decision to leave an abusive relationship, Serena knows she has to help. Will
she have to postpone her dreams forever? Or will she hear God's still, small
voice and realize his plan for her? |

Stacy has been putting pen to paper
for as long as she can remember.
As early as age six, she wrote short stories and poems and shared
them with friends and family in Pine Bluff, Arkansas.
She was a newspaper reporter for 13 years before becoming a
full-time author and freelance writer.
Stacy obtained a degree in mass communications from Jackson State
University. She has participated in various writing programs,
including the University of Maryland's Journalism Fellowship in
Child & Family Policy and the Nieman Conference on Narrative
Journalism at Harvard University.
She is a member of Toastmasters International and a graduate of
the CLASS (Christian Leaders, Authors & Speaker Services) seminar.
Her articles have appeared in secular and faith-based
publications, including Heart & Soul and The Crisis magazines and
on Crosswalk.com. She also contributes regularly to blogs on
Crosswalk.com and Faithchick.com.
Stacy began her career as a reporter for Florida Today newspaper
in Melbourne, Florida. Until recently, she was the social issues
reporter and inspirational columnist for the Richmond
Times-Dispatch in Richmond, Virginia.
During her tenure at the Times-Dispatch, she delivered live
broadcast reports on the Richmond CBS news affiliate and appeared
on the Montel Williams Show. One of her columns was featured in
"Young Believer Case Files," a book for young adults released by
Tyndale House Publishers in 2003.
Honors for her work include being named Journalist of the Year by
the Richmond Association of Black Journalists and receiving a
media excellence award from the American Business Women's
Association.
Her debut novel, Speak To My Heart, was voted 2004 Best New
Multicultural Christian Fiction, and Stacy was named 2004 Best New
Multicultural Christian Fiction Author by Shades of Romance
Magazine. Black Expressions Book Club dubbed her a literary
"Rising Star."
In her novels, Stacy enjoys creating plots that keep readers
turning pages and characters that compel readers to examine the
role faith plays in their lives.
As a public speaker, she shares motivational, inspirational or
spiritual messages that leave her corporate, civic or religious
audiences desiring to lead lives of excellence.
Stacy also devotes considerable time to promoting literacy. She is
a former board member of The READ Center, a program that teaches
adults to read, and now assists with the Richmond affiliate of
Reach Out and Read. Through this youth literacy program, doctors
emphasize the importance of reading by regularly giving new books
to their young patients and encouraging parents to read aloud to
their children.
Stacy lives in a suburb of Richmond with her husband and two
children. |
