    It’s Beginning to Look a Lot like Christmas!

    Plain Jane's Secret Admirer

    And I hope your week so far is as lovely as mine!

    Saturday I had a terrific book signing at Bookology Bookstore in downtown Cambridge, Ohio. The folks at Bookology always treat me so very well, and as my hometown bookstore, it is my hands-down favorite place to meet readers and sign my books.

    The yummy cookies they always have don’t hurt!

    I don’t know how many books we sold Saturday, but between people who came specifically to see me and all the lovely folks who were visiting downtown Cambridge for the holiday and happened into the bookstore and then bought one or more of my books, it was a pretty successful event.

    And many of them bought other books as well — including me, lol.

    My newest book, “Plain Jane’s Secret Admirer“, the next in my Willow Creek series, part of the Heart of the Amish series from Barbour Publishing, releases on January 1. But it’s out on Kindle all ready, and Barbour allowed us to do the early bird meet-and-greet at Bookology this weekend.

    My author copies showed up Saturday as well, so watch for a video soon of me reading from my newest book.

    This morning I thought I’d check on Amazon to see if “Plain Jane” was in the top 100 books in Amish fiction yet, and much to my wondering eyes, it appeared that the book is number three!!

    You could have knocked me over with a sprig of holly!

    Thanks to everyone who has purchased a copy in print or online; you’re the reason my book is doing so well this holiday season!

    Watch for my next two books coming in March and May! My first Harlequin Love Inspired Amish romance, “Feuding with the Amish Farmer“, releases on March 31, and on May 1 it’s the next Willow Creek Heart of the Amish story, “Miriam’s Little Gentleman“!

    I wish each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas. God bless you, every one!
