Hi Maria Grazia and thank you so much for inviting
me to share a little bit about myself on your blog. I’ve been writing for
almost forty years, starting when I was just a little girl when I would write
stories about gnomes in little notebooks (which I still have!). I gravitated to
writing about the Amish genre because my heritage is Anabaptist and I find the
Plain culture fascinating.
Unfortunately, there is often a
misconception that Amish fiction books are poorly written and formula romance.
And then there is often a problem concerning many authors’ accuracy of the
portrayal of Amish. Many authors do not have first-hand experience with the
Amish or readers are basing what they know on “reality” shows.
