An Amish Christmas Love is a beautifully written Novella  by Beth Wiseman, Amy Clipston, Ruth Reid and Kelly Irivin. Each story will not disappoint you at all, and will leave with a warm feeling of hope and knowing good people are still out there.

I have decided to do a review on Amy Clipston  The Christmas Cat. I just love the title, because if you know Amy you know the love she has for cats.

In this story we meet a widow Emma who is struggling at Christmas without her beloved husband who has passed on. One evening she finds a stay tabby on her porch and as much as she didn't want the cat, the cat had other plans and made itself comfortable in her home.

I just loved this sweet story by Clispton. She always has a way of just making each character very special rather a person or a cat. In the end Emma realized just how much she needed this stray tabby and the tabby needed her. You can read this sweet story of Emma and Hank (tabby).

 I was given a copy of this book for my review for which I have give.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Early Years

A native of New Jersey, I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember. I often joke that my fiction writing “career” began in elementary school as I wrote and shared silly stories with a close friend. However throughout school, I only considered writing a hobby, and I never dreamt of being an author.
In 1991, I graduated from high school, and my parents and I moved to Virginia Beach, Virginia. My father retired, and my mother went to work full-time. I attended Virginia Wesleyan College in Norfolk, and I graduated with a degree in communications. I met my husband, Joe, during my senior year in college, a few days after my father had a massive stroke. Joe and I clicked instantly, and after a couple of months we started dating. We married four years later.
After graduating from VWC, I took a summer job with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Norfolk District, which turned into an eleven-year career. I worked in the Public Affairs Office for four years and then moved into Planning as a writer/editor.

Wanda Brunstetter Q&A and Giveaway!

It is my pleasure and honor to have had Wanda answer a few questions for us. Thank you Wanda for taking the time out of your schedule to let us know what you have been doing and what inspires you to write.  Wanda Brunstetter Q&A QUESTION 1: When is the earliest that you remember having a passion for writing? Response: From the time I began reading I started writing short stories and poems. I had an imagination as a child. When I was in second grade I wrote a poem about a moth. My teacher thought it was good and said I might someday become an author. That little seed she planted encouraged me to keep writing. QUESTION 2: From all of the different genres that you could have chosen, how did you decide upon Amish life as your primary focus? Response: I chose the Amish life to write about because through my husband, who has a Mennonite background, I met and became friends with many Amish people, whom we have come to know and love.
