Welcome to Chapter-a-Week Chat. It's my hope that we can grow this group into a vibrant community of readers excited about Christian fiction! Our first...
Here's a little bit about this week's selections: (and feel free to talk about ANY Chpater-a-Week books you've read--we want to get conversation hopping) The...
Good morning, everyone, We're getting this site off the ground with two amazing first guests-- Bill Myers and Cindy Woodsmall. Bill and Cindy, could you each...
... Bill Myers, here. I started out as a film director. There's so much power to impact lives through the media that it seemed like a no brainer. But the...
Nice to meet ya, Bill! I like the idea of telling a story from a 13 year old's point of view.? I have two girls (all grown up now) and I like reading about...
... Bill and Cindy, could you each tell us a bit about yourselves, how you got into this writing gig, and what inspired you to write this week's picks? How I...
Hi Merry: Yes, for me writing from a 13 year old girl's POV was like writing from a schizophrenic's perspective -- leading with all emotion and allowing the...
Cindy, It's so interesting to hear how God prepared you to write these books by giving you an Amish friend. Why do you think people are so enamored with books...
Hi, Traci, I love this question! I think the interest in the Amish lifestyle is a combination of reasons and questions that blend together in readers' minds...
Hi, Traci, I love this question! I sent this response through once and it didn't show up. If I send it again, will they both show up? :-) I think the interest...
I think that is what is so interesting to many of us. The mixture of historical in a contemporary world is pretty unique. I lived near the Amish in PA, and now...
I find the Amish fascinating and love to read books about them. Mennonites, too. Cindy, I have the first two books but I am waiting to see if the first one...
Hi, Kimberly and Merry, Thanks for dropping by CAWChat and sharing! Wow at the wonderful connection, experiences, and memories Merry has. Kimberly, I'm glad I...
April 18 is the big day. A part of my new mystery Death of a Six-Foot Teddy Bear will appear on Chapter a Week. This is the second book in my Bargain Hunters...
Here's an overview of this week's picks. A Bride So Fair Book Three in A Fair to Remember by Carol Cox A young woman searching for independence and adventure. ...
Good morning, all, Our authors this week are Carol Cox and Sharon Dunn, both great mystery writers. Thanks for being with us, Carol and Sharon! Why did you...
Good morning! I am so excited about being part of this new group. What a great way to connect authors and readers! My dad had a lot to do with whetting my love...
Now you've picqued our interest! Should we take guessed until you get home? Skydiving? Bungee jumping? Stamp collecting? ... Waiting with baited breath! Traci ...
Hi, Sharon, your mysteries are so refreshing. What in your personality or upbringing keeps you laughing and seeing the funny side of life? And Carol, I've...
Hi again! Sorry for the delay in getting back to those questions. I returned home from my appointment to find that my husband had cut his hand moving a water...
I wonder if that would make a great title for a book...but you'd probably scare a few folk... I've watched the fast-draw competitions on TV - pretty neat. ...
... Are you just naturally sweet? <g> Or are you really a termagant or a tigress in real life. <g> And write about sweet heroines just to confuse people? <g> ...
Carol, I'm APPALLED. Hard-hearted Hannah that awful vamp from Savannah? And you! Oh, dear. That did give me a chuckle. And there is nothing wrong with sweet....
Hi Sharon Dunn here. Guess I will start with Traci's first question. Why do I write mysteries? It all started with Nancy Drew in the fifth grade. The ones with...
... Hmm. Well, I have to admit I was thinking more about the hard-hearted part than that whole vamp aspect. LOL Carol [Non-text portions of this message have...
Thanks, Sharon. I meant to answer sooner. I can't read Nancy Drew either. The dialogue in those books reminds me of Leave it to Beaver-- so super sweet that...
I just finised "A Bride So Fair", and I loved it! I'm giving you two thumbs up for a hero with a moustache (I have a thing for moustaches *grin*), and I love...
Thanks so much, Jenny! I'm glad you liked the book . . . and the mustache. ;-) Carol ... From: eviesmommo To: CAWChat@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, April 24,...
It's Friday again, so that means another two great books and another two great novelists to chat with. This week's selections are Whispers of the Bayou by...
I'm going to get the conversation started with a few questions. Please feel free to jump in with your own comments or questions, everyone. Maureen has warned...
