Seize the Night is HERE!



GUYS.


It's here.


The Anthology is here.


LOOK AT IT!




When I dreamed of being an author, it always circled back to being published. It was a given that I wanted to one day, eventually, hold my story in my hands. And now that day is here. And it only gets better.


I didn't just publish a story in this absolutely beautiful collection.


I co-hosted it.


I'm seriously still in denial, shock, misbelief. Call it what you will, I cannot believe this day is here. But it is and I couldn't be more thrilled! My name is in that book, guys—right alongside of those of my friends and people whose writing I admire. The Lord has truly blessed my socks off, and I could not be more thankful right now that He has been so good to me.


So, without further ado, here's the royal run-down on the Seize the Night Anthology:



An Anthology Honoring the Birth of the Savior


When Oliver is offered help in the search for his son, will he answer the Voice in the night and the forgiveness extended to him?

A lifetime of inferiority; a mistake with tragic consequences—can anything convince Brett that he isn’t too young for Christmas, after all?

A baking mistake pushes a perfectionist out of her comfort zone.

Sometimes forgiveness takes love, patience, and being stranded in a snowstorm.

A young girl struggles to understand Christmas is all about God walking with us through the darkness and making it bright

Two siblings hurting thousands of miles apart. Will a kindly hero make a way for them to reunite?

A wounded prisoner and a little girl teach us about having a Real Christmas.

During the Christmas of 1945, Lane Mueller just wants to get home but getting from Los Angeles to Amarillo is no easy task when going home is what everyone else wants too.


Featuring various genres sure to please the whole family.

Seize the Night is officially book #1 in a series!



Seize the World



Seize the Night is just the beginning of a brand-new series, with a book for each season. The next addition, Seize the Love, is our ode to spring, its release date being in February—Valentine's Day, actually! And there will be two more anthologies after that, so stick around! We're just full of surprises, aren't we?


But in order for us to pull this off, we need you!


About the book:

An Anthology Honoring the Love of the Savior… The second anthology in the Seize the World series.


Focusing on LOVE this anthology will feature stories that have themes of love; sibling, romantic, family love. But most of all, love that honors God with the stories’ portrayals.

Releasing on February 14th, 2023!

(Isn't that cover so pretty?! 😍🥰)

THE RULES:


  • Submissions close January 10th.

  • Only five-ten stories will be selected January 15th.

  • Each story must be between 3,000 to 5,000 words (unless it is 100% necessary to the story!)

  • You can submit more than one story... if you have time, but this is crazy short notice to begin with so, yeah, lol. Only one story per author will be chosen for the anthology.

  • Any era or genre - excluding magical fantasy, horror, or anything that just doesn't honor God, otherwise have at it! - is accepted.

  • We're looking for good, wholesome Christian stories that are for all ages or at the most 13/16 up - so no icky relationships, or extreme violence. Your story must be God-honoring and portray a plotline that reflects God's love and honors Him!

  • You must use at least one prompt in your story.

  • Please, no inappropriate behavior and keep it at a rating of around PG13 or something you don't mind a parent or kid siblings reading...



Well, that about wraps this up, folks. Thank you so much for reading and be sure to check out the rest of this blog tour party!
