My Amish Books Sold On Ebay

Two of my Amish books are on ebay for a month. Check them out if you like Amish stories. You will see I've reduced the price on the first two Amish books I wrote just so I can introduce new readers to my Nurse Hal series.

Christmas Traditions wasn't meant to be part of a series, but readers ask me if I could continue Margaret Yoder's story. I did sort of. At first, I had an idea about putting a home health nurse in an Amish settlement so I was eager to start the Nurse Hal series and thought I'd forget about Margaret Yoder.

In A Promise Is A Promise, the first book in the Nurse Hal series, I saw right away Hallie Lindstrom Lapp needed one good friend to go to for advice about turning from English to Amish. John took Hal to meet their neighbor Margaret Yoder. She had been through a similar experience in Pennsylvania. She was Amish as a child, left home to be English and returned to the Amish settlement to marry the man she'd always loved. She'd had experience in both worlds. So I, as the author, moved Margaret and her son, Luke, to Iowa after Margaret's husband, Levi, died. They had lived in that area for some time before Margaret and Hallie become friends. John Lapp sees Hallie struggling with rigid Amish ways. He doesn't want to lose Hallie so he introduces her to Margaret, hoping that would help. It did.

Since this is a series, the books should be read in order. So try my books that are a reduced price on ebay for one month. See if you might like them well enough to want to read the rest of my Nurse Hal Among The Amish series. Book five was just released-Emma's Gossamer Dreams.

Check out ebay reviews from my many customers that are happy with my shipping method and signing the books for them. I put a certain number of books up for sale. I'm an Independent author so I can get new supplies of books printed when I want to order so I always have a supply on hand.

On weebly.com, you will find my bookstore www.booksbyfaybookstore.weebly.com or people can order from me by using my email or commenting in my website store's guest book. These ways all work. My bookstore site has information about my accomplishments, book reviews and my blog. Looking through the site is a good way to get to know me.

I've become aquainted with many buyers around the country that buy from ebay. We've become good enough friends that we can email about other things besides a book order. They are eager to see what has happened next on the Lapp farm near Wickenburg, Iowa. They email me to see if I have another book about done. I love it when that happens.

Poor Defenseless Addie

Poor Defenseless Addie by Fay Risner




View all my reviews In November 2012, I entered the National November Write Month Contest better known as nanowrimo. I made it over the 50,000 word deadline so I collected my winner label for this book. Poor Defenseless Addie is the seventh in the Amazing Gracie Series. Though Gracie Evans is tired of listening to all the town gossips, she begins to worry when they talk about a stranger in town. The man is living with a friend of Gracie's, Addie Masters. Seems he is the elderly woman's son that none of the gossips knew about. When Addie stops attending church, Gracie and the other residents from Moser Mansion wonder if she's ailing. They decide to visit her. A first hand look at Addie's rude son and seeing a wicked bruise on Addie's hand gets Gracie and her friends putting two and two together. They come up with elderly abuse that they think should be reported to the law. Town Marshal Earl Bullock turns their complaint about Homer Masters over to Sheriff Ben Logan. He comes up with some disturbing information that has the sheriff and town marshal worried about Addie. They have to have proof that Homer is abusing his mother, or she has to confess which isn't going to happen. Beloved Aunt Pearlbee is suddenly taken ill and needs attention. The residents of Moser Mansion have to let Addie fend for herself. Gracie worries that by the time they get back to helping poor defenseless Addie Masters, she will be dead. This is the second time I made it over the deadline in the contest. I entered with Tread Lightly Sibby, a historical book set in Texas County, Missouri in 2011. Actually, I have used the contest's concept all along. Write as fast as you can no matter how sloppy the text looks then go back to rewrite and edit as many times as it takes. So with Poor Defenseless Addie I started November first and by February I had the finished book. Enjoy, Fay Risner
