Stacy-Deanne (pronounced Dee-Anne) is an award-winning novelist. She began writing professionally at nineteen years old. Stacy's works include, "Divas of the New Millennium" published by Amber Communications Group Inc, in 2005, "Everlasting" published in 2007 by Simon and Schuster, "Melody" published June 2008 by Simon and Schuster and Giving up the Ghost published 2011 by Peace in the Storm Publishing.

Author George Weir discusses the ins and outs of writing fiction. And he happens to be a fellow Texan, yaaa! He hails from East, Texas where my mother and father grew up! How cool is that?

God definitely took care of us. Let me know your real thoughts about the web site when you get a chance. I'd love to stay in touch!
Happy writing,
Jeannie
