Christmas Give-away

07:53, Wednesday, October 1, 2008 .. Posted in Books .. 34 comments .. Link
Thank you to everyone who gave me such encouragement for my writing project. I have taken it in prayer to the Lord and am seeking His guidance on whether this is the right time to start writing a book. Meanwhile, please know that I am working on compiling a list of non-generic Amish books that will be posted soon. It is such a blessing to recommend good Christian books to others!

Now, as promised, I have a special giveaway to help start your holiday season. Now, what would somebody like me give away? Well, books, to start with! The lucky winner will receive :

Two books: The warm and inviting novel "A Redbird Christmas" by Fannie Flagg, which is a charming story of faith at Christmas time. The other book is Debbie Mumm's "Joyful Traditions for the Holidays" which is a beautifully photographed collection of simple homemade Christmas ideas for decorating, treats, and gifts. The Mumm book also includes patterns for some projects. It's a fun book to look through and have around throughout the season. Neither book is heavy reading, they are both light and joyful and meant to enhance the time of year that we rejoice in our Savior. Both books are hardback. While cozy in your favorite reading chair, you might enjoy a cup of hot tea, which is why I am also throwing in a box of cinnamon honey sticks (100% natural, made with clover honey). Empty one into your tea or give them to your children as delicious snacks. Finally, I'll add a packet of Christmas Aroma to simmer on the stove and make your house smell wonderful with hardly any effort. I also reserve the right to throw in any extra goodies at the last minute.




If by chance you have already read one of the books mentioned, you can still enter. Just let me know and I'll be happy to send a different title.

How to enter: So simple, just leave a comment here and that gives you one entry. Mention my giveaway on your blog, and you'll receive and additional 5 entries. On October 8th I'll draw a winner.

I would love to enter your giveaway! I have never done one or entered one before, but it sounds to fun! I also will mention it on my blog. I would be VERY interested in your list of fiction to read. I have almost read every book of Amish fiction and other Christian fiction our library has. I love to read, and will only read Christian.

I am starting to feel the Christmas fever (happens this time every year) and have just started my Christmas crafting- I even considered making a batch of fudge for the freezer but I doubt that it would last until November, let alone Christmas :D

Please count me in. I will go post about your giveaway over at my blog right now.

Blessings!

I would love to be entered in your Chirstmas Book Give Away; however, I already have The Redbird Christmas. So, if I happen to be the lucky winner, just send the Debbie Mumm. I am looking forward to the post listing the Amish books. Thank you for doing that. ( I do not have a blog...vtrugrade2@hotmail.com) Blessings...v from n. Idaho

Great Contest!

Hi there!

Thanks for visiting my blog!!!
We love TN also...we moved here from SW Florida
4-1/2 years ago...best move we ever made! :)

I'd also encourage you to write that book. We live near the Amish here...and I find it fascinating to go visit over there. I agree that the mainstream authors glamorize everything, including the Amish way of life. I'd love to read some true stories...

Blessings,
Laurie

"A Redbird Christmas" by Fannie Flagg, sounds like such a nice book for a mother to read to her child! Their bonding time! Debbie Mumm's "Joyful Traditions for the Holidays" is something Mom and child can work on together with its decorating and treat ideas!

So nice of you to offer these!
Best of luck to you with your writing!!
