I would never have the dedication and skill to make a story into a book, though. I truly appreciate authors because it takes so much work to write. I am just happy that I am able to enjoy the fruits of their labor.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03201982369430538070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5811895298125323943.post-21426119164944472162014-01-31T01:25:08.028-05:002014-01-31T01:25:08.028-05:00When I can meet a author I will let them know how ...When I can meet a author I will let them know how much it means to be able to read their books and encourage them to keep writing good, clean books for us to enjoy.<br /> Maxie mac262(at)me(dot)comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5811895298125323943.post-58259767898336915852014-01-31T01:20:16.187-05:002014-01-31T01:20:16.187-05:00Vera, thanks for inviting Anita here for a review....Vera, thanks for inviting Anita here for a review. She is a good one. I think she lives in my area and would love her to have a book signing so I could meet her in person. For now will just have to thank her for all of the time she puts in writing these sort of books that we don't have to worry about what we are going to find in the books or a granddaughter picking it up and deciding to read it. I love so many authors and do try to let them know how important their writing is to so many.I have gotten to meet Vannetta Chapman and Jennifer Beckstrand and it was so neat to be able to actual talk to them in person. Would love to meet so many more, including Anita. Thanks for the give-away.

I have gotten many more wonderful lessons from reading Christian fiction than I have attending church. Plus they are more fun. I have been truly blessed to have read a lot of different Christian authors.

Do feel encouraged to write even a few short sentences as a comment or review on a book you enjoy. You don't have to blog or write a formal review. Just a few words about how the book encouraged, entertained, or impacted you. The book seller sites such as Amazon.com, Christianbook.com, BarnesandNobel.com all have opportunities for you to leave a comment.<br /><br />Another way is to leave a Facebook or other social media comment for the author to see where you recommend a book you enjoy.Vera Godleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00511948370346834218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5811895298125323943.post-48671410985767883912014-01-15T18:49:03.122-05:002014-01-15T18:49:03.122-05:00How would I show appreciation to authors if I had ...How would I show appreciation to authors if I had the opportunity? I know I already have the opportunity to leave reviews of their books on Amazon, Goodreads, CBD, etc., and sometimes I do, but I have a hard time with this. It's not that I don't want to leave a review, I just find writing them to be rather difficult. I'm much better at reading than writing!

I like to read contemporary, historical (wide range of eras here), mystery, romance, and sometimes suspense. I can choose Christian fiction in all these genres (and more). It's such a relief to know I won't encounter vulgar language, explicit violence or sex. I follow quite a few authors via their blogs and Facebook and will sometimes leave encouraging comments for them.<br />Pam K.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5811895298125323943.post-54303084014554174522014-01-15T11:45:35.521-05:002014-01-15T11:45:35.521-05:00I show appreciation to authors by leaving them goo...I show appreciation to authors by leaving them good reviews!Susan Heimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09323688336142448174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5811895298125323943.post-46068459615940140322014-01-15T11:43:26.007-05:002014-01-15T11:43:26.007-05:00So much of what is out there is too "smutty&q...So much of what is out there is too "smutty" for my taste.
