Welcome to the inaugural Back to School Christian Fiction Scavenger Hunt. We hope that throughout this hunt, you discover some new books and get to know a little more about us.

A few things before you begin:

This hunt is a blog hop. Collect the “clues” (pieces to the longer phrase) at each stop. Enter the individual giveaways along the way, then click on the link to the next stop and repeat until you reach #28, where you will input the full phrase as your entry to the grand prize drawing.

The hunt begins August 30, 2023, at noon EST and ends September 4, 2023, so you have plenty of time to visit each stop. If you need to step away and come back later, make a note of the last stop you visited, and go to this post with the list of all stops on the hunt.

If you are having trouble viewing the posts, you may need to switch browsers. Chrome and Firefox sometimes work better than Microsoft Explorer or Edge.

Hi! My name is Rachelle Paige Campbell, and I write contemporary romance full of heart. I have loved to read and write my entire life. In my opinion, as a writing/school supply fanatic, August is the best month of the year.

Since my childhood, I have looked forward to the Back-to-School sales, even if I wasn’t excited about heading to school again. While I might have suffered anxiety about my teacher, my classmates, and my classes, I didn’t have any worry about stocking up.

Crisp notebooks? Brand-new pencils? Perfect planners? Yes, please!

I love a fresh start. While I’m not a big fan of New Year’s resolutions, I do love the promise of a new year. By the time August arrives, I am ready for a second dose of motivation. Nothing represents that starting from scratch, anything is possible feeling better than a box of perfectly sharpened pencils.

I thought this was a universal experience. In the author world, many of us hoard notebooks and planners. We stock up on markers and pens. We share sales at our favorite stationery retailers.

Since having my own kids, however, I have learned that is not true. Getting my kids to head to the store to shop is tough! In the age of Internet shopping, however, I’ve reached a solution. The few items that can be “personalized” (like binders and pencil cases) are ordered online, and I head to the store to purchase the rest.

I can spend as long as I like strolling the aisles and scanning every folder, pencil, and pen on display. I scour the sticky notes (so many cute shapes are available now) and study the desk calendars. In short, I take hours on a trip that could have been minutes. But I leave recharged (and hopefully with only a few extras added to the cart).

As I write this, I am taking an inventory of what my kids still need for the start of school. I’m itching to head back to the store. And I know I’ll leave with at least a renewed sense of purpose and probably a couple of pens.

Here’s a little about the book I am giving away…
