Another Giveaway!
I hope everyone has entered Beth's drawing for Plain Promise. This is a WONDERFUL book, her best yet. I loved it.
I'm offering a giveaway too--a copy of A Man of His Word and An Amish Christmas. To enter, leave a comment here or if you're on facebook visit Kathleen Fuller's Reader's Group and post a comment on the board. The drawning will be held at the end of September. Good luck!
The leaves are starting to turn here in Ohio. I love this time of year, all the colors, the smell of bonfires and fireplaces, the crisp, cool weather. Then there's food of course: apples, pumpkins, homemade soups and chilis, hot cider and hot chocolate. Yum!
What do you enjoy most about fall?
'Til next time,
Kathleen

Kathleen, I too am in Ohio, probably a little more than 3 hours south of you. We are in an area that is attracting lots of AMish to our rural area. I love the Barnesville Pumpkin Festival and all its fall decorations,and the smells of pumpkin everything, everywhere.I especially love the ice cream. I also love going to the Amish auction and seeing all the pumpkins and mums. The cool mornings and evenings and as you said the changing leaves make Ohio the perfect place to be in the fall. I would love to be entered in your drawing. Thank you for writing great books that I can share with my teenage daughter.

I remember walking to school and crunching the leaves that had fallen on the sidewalks in the fall. As a teacher in Florida, I missed the leaves that had turned beautiful colors. My sister FedExed me leaves; I laminated them and used them on bulletin boards. Amazingly, they remained flexible for years, although the colors gradually faded. My Florida students loved passing them around.

Everything is fall is wonderful. I had a cup of coffee while reading outside this morning. It feels so much like fall and the leaves are quickly turning. You've put me in the mood to make an apple pie so I'm off to go do that before picking my book back up.

I love everything fall. I'm going to make an apple pie today which should go good with a cup of coffee later this evening. I'd love to be entered in your book drawing.

Fall is my favorite season. I love taking long walks on a cool, crisp day then coming home and restoring all the calories I burned by eating pumpkin donuts and drinking hot chocolate.

I would love a copy of your book. I have become hooked on the Amish books out there.
I love the cooler weather. Here in Texas the mornings are getting cooler and it is great. I can't wait for the real cold weather to come so I can start making stew, and chicken soup, and chicken dumpling soup and all those cold weather foods.

Hello! Fall is my favorite time of the year too! I just wish it would last longer! I love the cool breaze, the colors of everything changing. I love going to farms for pumpkin patches and apples. I love decorating for fall also! I get so excited when I can buy bales of hay and corn stalks, put up my scarecrows and more!
Blessings, CarolG

I bought the boook "A Gift of Grace" because my grandbaby girl is named Grace and now am loving the series. Can't wait to read the newest one. I buy my books at the local grocery store there is a small stand with a few books in it. I will be looking for the others. I hope to win the books.

It will probably sound silly but what I love most about fall is...long sleeves! Haha, shirts, sweaters, pretty coats. I love it.

Autumn....oh, sweet autumn! This is something we can count on; the changing season. This we know, even with all the news on television we would care not to hear, but it's there. We can watch as God changes our world to a palette of color and as I tell my family, soak up the beauty of His world. I'm looking forward to my list of fall reading...sitting by the fire with a cup of tea reading my favorite authors. The first on my list will be 'A Man of His Word' and 'An Amish Christmas'.

I absolutely love the Amish genre. The very first Amish novel I read was Plain Perfect by Beth Wiseman. I've since read Plain Pursuit and A Gift of Grace by Amy Clipston (Amy & I are friends from when she lived in VA). I turned my mom on to the Amish novels, and it seems as though she reads one a week! We're always looking for new authors and novels to read. I can't wait to read one of your novels!

Fall is my favorite season because of its incredible beauty. I look forward to the turning leaves and cooler weather, as it's still hot in Atlanta. The main sign of fall in my home is the scent of Yankee Candle fall candles.
I love Amish fiction and appreciate the chance to win these books.

Fall is my favorite time of the year. It's the feeling that is in the air that I am so fond of! I love the cool mornings, the leaves, the colors, the hot cider and hot soup in the cool evenings - plus so many other things that make me glad to be alive. We, also, live in Ohio. It is a beautiful state. I love the Amish books and you are a fantastic author! I know anything you write will be good! Keep writing!

Kathleen,
I have read "A Man of His Word". I loved it. Hope that the future of Gabe an Moriah is made known if a future book. This book should teach us all to speak up for ourselves like Tobias did. Would love to win a copy of a book

I forgot to comment on the season of Fall. I love Fall also, but here in Arkansas we mostly have Indian Summer. But we did not have a hot summer, 100's only 1 week, and alot of rain. We have 7 inches in the bucket for the year and usually we don't have that much this time of the year. Having some cool nights, but still warm days. Would love to have 40 degree nights and 70 degree days, but that won't come till late October.

Just so enjoy opening these up in the morning and being blessed by all that is said. So enjoy hearing about all the new books and how fun it would be win just once... We are having beautiful weather in September in Michigan. I Love it....
Keep up the good work.

I have to say that I have loved you books. Im an avid Amish fiction. I went to work at our local library nearly 11 yrs ago and while shelving some items I came across my first Amish story.I literally fell in love with them. I love that I can visit Sugarcreek area with a short drive from my home. Good people with good hearts.

Gues I didnt read the blog thru all the way. Fall in my favorite time of yr. Growing up in Northern Wisconsin, the changing of the colors and living on a lake were some of my best memories. Football, bonfires, apple picking and roasted marshmallows.It doesnt get better than that.

Beautiful leaves, cozy sweaters and apple pie are a few things I love about Fall.
I'd love to win A Man of His Word, a faithful man is so good to find!

I love the fall so much that 15 years ago we planned our Florida wedding around fall. We spent our honeymoon in Ashville, NC. It was the 3rd week of October just when all the leaves were bright,the cabin had a porch with pumpkins and a swing, the apples were crisp and the air was cool. PERFECT!

I would like to say please put my name in for the drawing of the book or books. I am an avid Amish Reader and I'm so excited to finally meet or have friends that are like minded not to mention who are authors of such books. All to often in the busy days, we forget what real pleasure it is just to sit down with a book that is truly worth reading and I believe your books are these such books. Thanks so much for being an Author of such wonderful writing. Sincerely, Mary Brown, Texas

Autumn is my favorite season by far. I have always told my daughter and now my grand children that to me the beautiful colors of Autumn are God's way of letting us see his patchwork quilt...

Love reading about the Amish and would like a chance to win the book. Autumn is a beautiful time of the year with the changing colors all around us. How can u look around u and declare there is no God??? Yet there are some that have no problem with it. The crisp air, the hot cocoa smells in the kitchen, apples freshly picked. Piling up in a comfortable chair with a throw,a good book and hot chocolate or coffee and u about have a perfect day!!
