Founder & Creative Director, Sundance Hollow, LLC Stacey Lynn Hollow is the founder and creative force behind Sundance Hollow, LLC—a purpose-driven publishing company devoted to meaningful storytelling that strengthens hearts, sparks imagination, and supports emotional growth across generations. With more than 20 years of experience working alongside treatment courts, behavioral health professionals, and community leaders, Stacey brings a trauma-informed, systems-aware perspective to her work. She believes stories are more than entertainment—they are tools for clarity, connection, resilience, and hope. Under the Sundance Hollow umbrella, Stacey established three distinct publishing divisions, each guided by a shared mission: to honor both vulnerability and strength through intentional storytelling. Rising Light Publishing is devoted to emotionally intelligent, trauma-informed books that illuminate life’s complex experiences with warmth and care. Within this imprint, Stacey develops:

• The Lightkeeper Collection – Literary, allegorical stories centered on courage, kindness, and resilience—protecting a child’s sense of hope while exploring universal themes with depth and grace.
• The Light Book Collection – A thoughtfully curated series of heart-centered children’s books designed to illuminate difficult, confusing, or overwhelming experiences. These titles help children find language for big feelings, navigate life’s harder moments with clarity and courage, and feel emotionally safe in big rooms, big emotions, and big transitions. Select titles are available in multiple illustration styles, honoring the unique ways children process complex experiences and supporting families in choosing the visual tone that feels most grounding.

Bright Imagineers Press is home to The Double Take Series and other high-engagement interactive books that blend humor, modern relevance, and critical thinking. These structured quiz and activity books invite children and families to laugh, reflect, and build decision-making skills together—transforming quick fun into meaningful connection. Sundance Hollow Press celebrates imagination, farm life, and the wonder of childhood, reminding readers that joy, curiosity, and lighthearted storytelling are essential parts of growth. In addition to her children’s titles, Stacey develops books and resources for adults and professionals—extending her commitment to trauma-informed communication, compassionate leadership, and systems that protect families. Whether writing for a child stepping into an unfamiliar space or a professional guiding others through change, her work is grounded in one enduring belief: Everyone deserves to feel seen. Everyone deserves to be heard. Through innovative approaches such as her Choice-Based Illustration model and thoughtfully structured interactive design, Stacey continues to build a catalog that is intentional, inclusive, and deeply human. Her books are used by families, educators, court professionals, caregivers, and community leaders who share her commitment to protecting light, fostering courage, and strengthening connection at every stage of life.
