We believe stories have the power to shape hearts, inspire minds, and bring families closer together. Our mission is simple: to provide a transparent, enriching space where readers of all ages can dive into captivating tales without ever worrying about inappropriate or suggestive content.

In today’s world, it can be challenging to find quality fiction that aligns with family values….especially with families & the family structure under attack. That’s why Life of Fiction is dedicated to delivering stories that captivate, entertain, and uplift—free from the shadows of grooming, sensuality, or agendas that tarnish young minds. Here, you can trust that every piece of fiction is crafted with care, embracing themes of adventure, courage, friendship, and growth, all while respecting the innocence of our youngest readers.

Whether you’re a parent searching for clean, imaginative stories, or a reader seeking a safe and welcoming community that treasures the purity of storytelling, Life of Fiction is here for you. We invite you to explore a world of wonder and delight, knowing each story is built on a foundation of trust and respect.

"Jaime’s commitment to teaching kids how to be better people is inspiring.

He manages to teach heroism and other niceties through his fiction so that his readers don’t even realize they’re learning. That’s the best kind of teaching and it’s rare. I’m not sure I’ve met anyone like him and there’s probably a reason for that.
So, get to know him – you won’t regret it."

Because you’ll have a great time, that’s why. We provide fun through adventures everyone can enjoy.

These stories started at bedtime, often by candlelight, acting out the scenes. Stories with heroes our kids could look up to and emulate. Stories that encouraged the belief that we all have intrinsic value. 

Those stories soon became comic books, then were published as novels, which turned into games,…and has now become a community here on Substack.

Stories are published in a serial format every week. Along with those stories, we create videos, artwork, podcasts, and more. We are still experimenting with our format and schedule overall, but we publish every week…and the archive of content is huge.

There is something for everyoneeven mom and dad.

"Jaime Buckley is a unique and quirky breed of writer. It’s not because of his style or skill….but his focus.

What’s makes this man so likable and why we adore him is that within minutes, you quickly realize his business isn’t products or information-–it’s people.

Teaching, encouraging, entertaining, empowering and uplifting people–no matter who they are or where they live. What’s impressive, is he’s incredibly good at it. 

Just to be clear, this isn’t something Jaime does…it’s who he is…and that powerful fact makes him a gem to work with."

Lynne Knowlton, Design The Life You Want To Live!

✨ Today, I’m sharing Jaime’s incredible message—a reminder of why his movement is so vital and why his dedication matters so much. In a world where values can often be compromised, Jaime stands as a true beacon of integrity. He’s a writer and creator who exemplifies what it means to be good, decent, and honest, respecting the sanctity of family and leading with positivity, love, and unwavering respect.

Jaime’s commitment to literature that uplifts without corrupting or grooming, that nurtures and respects the minds of all, especially our children, is rare and so deeply needed. He never encroaches on others’ values but instead offers a safe space where we can all grow and learn with confidence. His dedication to building a community that stands for what’s right is truly inspiring, and I am beyond proud to stand with him.

What’s even more inspiring is Jaime’s transparency—choosing to share with his readers that he’s putting his health first so he can continue to provide for his family and build Life of Fiction for the world. It takes courage to prioritize wellness openly, and Jaime shows us all what true leadership looks like.

If you’re looking for a place where you can trust the content, where family values and genuine decency lead the way, Jaime’s community is where you’ll find it. Join him, share his work, and let’s amplify the message of leadership we all need more of in this world. 🌟

My dad, Jaime Buckley, is probably one of the most genuine personalities you'll meet online. As a father of 13 hereditarily passionate and driven children, his heartfelt visions for their future, not just in business, but in life, have nuanced themselves throughout the work of his career.

As a professional illustrator, game creator, podcaster, author of books, comics, and graphic novels, his goal was to create worthwhile heroes for children to emulate, in a world where true heroes are hard to find.

He launched Wanted:Hero in 2005 and received visitors from 60 different countries, all by word of mouth, in the first 10 months. The fantasies began to bud and bloom, a reminder that he had pursued illustration to see others achieve their dreams and goals as much as he desired to reach his own.

At the heart of all his success, in the firm hard ground underneath his most epic and humbling setbacks, the essence of my father's work has always been a love for people. Intrinsic value for the soul of an individual.

My daddy, my favorite storyteller, has dreamt up a million dissimilar ways to teach me that every human being has infinite worth.
