Head on over there to enter. 

Also, if you're so inclined to listen to a podcast now and then, I'd love it if you'd check out the interview I did on Alison Treat's Historical Fiction Unpacked podcast. Alison is a terrific interviewer.

Waiting on a Grand-baby with these 9 Books, only 99¢ each

Hello, Sunday! I have really become a lackadaisical blogger, but you know, it's summer. Ah, the lazy days! Not really sure what that means. Summer is always so busy. I can hardly keep up with the demands of garden, lawn, farming, and hanging out with my grandchildren.

Speaking of which, #16 is on the way momentarily. My daughter is 4 days overdue. Isn't she gorgeous? She and her hubby did a maternity photo shoot up at the Lake Superior shoreline a few weeks ago. Now we're just waiting for Baby Girl to show up. This is her 4th baby (and, they say, the last).

While I wait for the blessed arrival, I'm catching up on some books on my Kindle, and pre-reading a couple of upcoming releases I grabbed off Netgalley. I've also really enjoyed a few audiobooks lately. My faves have been Elizabeth Ludwig's Irish immigrant stories "No Safe Harbor" and "Dark Road Home". 

I'm also downloading some of these. 9 authors (me included) are offering a 99¢ deal on these titles for the 9 weeks of summer. There really is something for every romantic taste, from suspense to historical saga to women's fiction. Check out the Summer Book Bash 2020.

Um...let's make that TEN Books, because The Deepest Sigh, the first in my Echoes of the Heart, series is also on sale for 99¢. (And here's The Green Veil link too.)

I hope there's baby news to report soon. How are you enjoying your summer?

Enjoying the long days,

Naomi

Summer Seeds & Summer Romance (30 Reads)

Summer Seeds   Garden Seeds: How does your garden grow? Mine has been quite contrary this year, with parts coming along but some seeds that just refused to sprout. That always makes me anxious, because of all the time and energy I've invested. Plus, I do a lot of canning, and our family depends on mounds of jars of veggies on the basement shelves over winter. I pray over every row I plant, asking God to bless each seed, but sometimes things just don't work out quite the way I have it in mind. Nevertheless, God always provides and blesses us in other ways. Story Seeds: In fact, it's the same with stories. Right now, I have 5 unpublished manuscripts in various stages, from polished to work-in-progress, here on my laptop, awaiting their chance to "sprout".  They range from well-cultivated to not-yet-emerging. But they haven't found a publishing home yet. Would you pray with me for these story seeds, that they would find a publishing home at which to germinate well? Precious Seeds: July is right around the corner. Between now and somewhere in the middle, we expect the arrival of two precious grand-babies, and we'll have one in the early fall too. Of all the seeds around me, these and the little ones growing tall are my most treasured. They are the seeds I most pray for, especially in this fallen Garden-of-Eden world we live in today.  Prayer for my little loves is the water and sunshine that will protect them and help them flourish. How have you been praying for your little seeds?
