Discover the Next Generation of Christian Storytellers…
Featuring Anna Parks
Anna Parks wrote her first book at age 7 on sheets of notebook paper, complete with a front and back cover hand drawn with the advertisement “a romantic story about love by wonderful author Anna Parks.” Ever since then, she has been finding ways to tell compelling stories that showcase how genuine faith plays out in real life, whether through historical fiction romances or biblical fiction stories. Much like her characters, Anna’s spare time is filled with family, reading, quilting, baking, and practicing swing dancing with her friends.

About Her Short Story
The Arithmetic of Love by Anna Parks
When Mary Beth Lee discovers that her mother is about to have a new baby, she quickly drags her brother, Ralph, into action. New babies mean less time and therefore less love for everyone already there, she’s seen that much with her friend’s family. Despite Mama’s reassurances that love doesn’t divide, she designs a master plan to prove their usefulness around the house. After all, everybody loves a cheerful helper! But when things start to go sideways and every new phase of the plan backfires, she is forced to reconsider: what Mama was right all along? What if love truly does multiply?
