In reply to J.P. Choquette (@jpchoquett).

Hi, J.P. Good to hear from you. I am very sure that any good-hearted question would not offend to anyone. :) The main thing, I think, for anyone, is to ask our questions, whether dumb or brilliant, with respect.

Thank you for your good wishes! I see that you are an author as well, and I just got done following your
blog. It would be great to compare notes sometime.

Love this post very much, and your can-do attitude, Lucinda. I really admire your honesty when talking about your culture. I have always been fascinated by the Amish and in reading this, hope that I’ve never offended anyone with dumb questions (I am so curious that I sometimes forget to “filter” and then worry that I shouldn’t have asked/said whatever I did). But I’m getting better about it with age!

Anyway, I wish you much success on your new venture as author and hope that you’ll soon be posting that you have only 10 copies remaining of your beautiful book. :)

I am looking forward to meeting you. You will actually be buying your book from Barnes & Noble, not me–though I will be on hand to autograph and to chat–so sadly, I can’t offer discounts. :)

In reply to Shirley. I am self selling some at shows, etc, but the easiest way for you to order is through Amazon or Herald Press OR get an autographed copy at my book signing at Barnes & Noble in Harrisonburg August 5. :)

Hi
I found your blog because a local Shenandoah Valley Mennonite posted it on HIS blog! read a few posts (and wondered how a Mennonite could NOT know that “Mennonite food etc was a tourist industry !!) before I read where you were from Sheldon ! Small world. I spent my “babyhood” in Boyd before we moved to Ohio. Reading your blog I kept thinking “so thats what my life would have been like if we had stayed !” You mentioned that you are “self selling it ” do we have to buy through you OR will Christian Light (Harrisonburg) be selling it to ?
