Looking back over my blog in the last few years, I can see that I’ve written a lot about farms. Even my latest “novel in progress” is called The Farmer’s Daughter. One might think I grew up on a farm, but I didn’t. I grew up around farms but not on one. Still, I have a huge soft spot for farms and farmers, especially the small, family-owned farms.
I thought I would link to some of my past blog posts about farming in today’s posts.

Thank you. It will probably be a bit. I’ve still got to do a couple more drafts and maybe even rewriting quite a bit.

Well I’m no good to read books on electronic format so I’ve only followed a bit..a hard copy is my choice and I’m working on patience..soooo it’ll make it that much sweeter to read when you’re all finished!!

I am trying to figure out how to design a nice hard copy. I hate how they come out on Amazon so I’m going to play with it this time and see if I can get a better design for future books. Or maybe someday I’ll get picked up by a real publisher and that will make it easier 😉

Ahhhhh you NEED to be picked up by a publisher, you’re so talented!!!
There’s a gal from my church who has self-published I believe, I’ll see if I can find out who she goes through.

I don’t know if I’m really that talented but I appreciate the comment 🙂 what I like about self-publishing is I write what I want and there is no one to tell me to write it so it fits in a certain category or box.

We live in a farming community here and so many of our farmer friends are dealing with hard times. I wish more folks appreciated all the hard work they do to provide for us!
