Discover the Next Generation of Christian Storytellers…

Featuring Gabriella Banasik

Gabriella Banasik fell in love the moment she heard her first story, opening infinite new worlds. She writes stories filled with fun banter, light overcoming the darkness, and characters who learn they are never alone.
With a pile of throwing knives hidden around her room and an overactive imagination, Gabriella sometimes takes breaks from reading to enjoy boating, traveling the world, and dancing in the kitchen to worship songs.
