You're well read. <br /><br />However, don't expect me to read a romance. <br /><br />I hold off at that. <br /><br />-DS<br /><br />PS. Proud of you Dale Cramer. I'm impressed you faced your fears. ;)Duane Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06869537581331071117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-83281083960604736132011-04-15T08:46:45.341-05:002011-04-15T08:46:45.341-05:00Thanks for the kind words, Glynn, especially the o...Thanks for the kind words, Glynn, especially the ones about trusting me. The truth is, I've never written romance because I was intimidated by the idea of writing from a female point of view, so I decided to tackle my deficiency head on. I thought the Mexico story was the perfect vehicle because my great grandfather (elder statesman of the colony) had seven daughters and three sons, and because it's not JUST a romance. A good story needs depth and principle, and a great story needs teeth. Book 2, The Captive Heart, comes out in December. It has teeth.Dale Cramerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08975147060819189187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-65050028962809361092011-04-15T08:40:56.339-05:002011-04-15T08:40:56.339-05:00You surely deserve an award for openness to readin...You surely deserve an award for openness to reading virtually anything and everything. I can't say I was aware of this particular genre/sub-genre of literature; you relate its substance. <br /><br />There are many Amish in Maryland, and I've visited working Amish farms in Pennsylvania and have purchased the gorgeous hand-made quilts. The history of the Amish is fascinating.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13290283101378474845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-73342193581178390572011-04-15T06:03:30.557-05:002011-04-15T06:03:30.557-05:00This does look good.

Sometimes it seems like publishers find a success then over-saturate. But these sound like they have some depth to them. I don't live far from Amish country in PA. It's an interesting topic for sure- their beliefs are fascinating.Karen Kyle Ericsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10519939237365240288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5791261486111154318.post-76913025641698810232011-04-15T05:25:58.767-05:002011-04-15T05:25:58.767-05:00...and so are you.
