Hi! I'm Mari Suggs, and I love writing stories about life's messy bits in cozy little towns. My stories mix real issues with a touch of romance to create characters that feel like old friends. I'm all about crafting stories that grab you by the heart and don't let go.

As a writer, I'm passionate about helping other writers achieve their dreams. That's why I designed My Book Companion Journal, a resource to help writers track their progress and have keepsake of their WIP--from idea to publishing.

I graduated from the University of Central Florida with a Bachelor of Arts in English, with an emphasis in Creative Writing.

Join me on my platform for daily encouragement and support.

Once I sit down and start writing anything, eventually I get into the flow of things and creativity flows through me again, obliterating writer's block. (less)

This is How God Leads Us to Our Gifts

Why is it that our own gifts are often the hardest to see? We can recognize the beauty of someone else’s gift so easily, yet when it comes to our own, it’s as if we’ve lost sight of it completely.



I’ve struggled for a long time to accept that I’m a writer. And while I know I’m not alone (hello, imposter syndrome), that knowledge has never brought me much comfort.



Tell me if this sounds familiar: you

Quotes by Mari Suggs  (?)

“Let's just enjoy today and not worry about tomorrow. One day at a time.”
Mari Suggs, Falling For You

“This ornament symbolizes her place within our family, a cherished member who holds a special place in our hearts.”
Mari Suggs, One Christmas With You: A Small Town Romance

“That night with Trevor was like being struck by lightning – electrifying, intense, and impossible to forget.”
Mari Suggs, One Christmas With You: A Small Town Romance

“Don't worry about failures, worry about the chances you miss when you don't even try.”
Jack Canfield, Chicken Soup for the Soul

“If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten. ”
Tony Robbins

“You can’t have a plan for your day, ‘til you have a plan for your life.”
Tony Robbins

“Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach.”
Tony Robbins

“When you focus on lack and scarcity and what you don’t have, you fuss about it with your family, you discuss it with your friends, you tell your children that you don’t have enough - “We don’t have enough for that, we can’t afford that” - then you’ll never be able to afford it, because you begin to attract more of what you don’t have. If you want abundance, if you want prosperity, then focus on abundance. Focus on prosperity. (Lisa Nichols)

Many people in Western culture are striving for success. They want the great home, they want their business to work, they want all these outer things. But what we found in our research is that having these outer things does not necessarily guarantee what we really want, which is happiness. So we go for these outer things thinking they’re going to bring us happiness , but it’s backward. You need to go for the inner joy, the inner peace, the inner vision first, and then all of the outer things appear. (Marci Shimoff)
