It is always nice to win. But there is something very special about winning a book – especially since books are one of my passions. But this is not just any book… this book came to me from the person who wrote it. I am honored.
Saloma wrote a very personal message to me as part of the gift – my first autographed book. How cool is that?
Dear Deanna, May love and light shine onyou always! And may you continue to be known affectionately as “Silly Grandma!” Many Blessings, Saloma
I have not read Why I Left the Amish yet, but know that if she writes in her book anything like she does in her blog, I am going to enjoy it immensely.
So to Saloma Miller Furlong, I thank you and wish to you Many Blessings back and a successful career as an author.

I just started reading her blog (I must have found her through you!) and love it. I have her book on my wish list...
Congrats, Deanna! Sounds like a very interesting book. I'll try to find it and read as I've always been interested in the Amish. Will check out her blog, too.
Very special gift. :)
I have her blog bookmarked to read when I have time, but haven't had a chance yet. Could have done it when I was bored earlier, but didn't think of it. Mind you, there's a lot I "could have" done earlier but didn't. Never mind though... I will get over there to have a look... I really will!
Hope you enjoy the book. Shame it probably wouldn't be available in audio!
What a wonderful note!
:) and I ditto it...
Dear Punkn, May love and light shine on you always! And may you continue to be known affectionately as “Silly Grandma!”
Simply perfect.
Congratulations! I'll have a look at her blog.
I just started reading her blog, too. She sounds like a wonderful woman! What a great prize--and signed!! I agree--the way she writes her blog, I bet the book is amazing! Enjoy! :)
I'm next on the borrow list mom!
congrats on the winning and what a great prize!! I am sure you will enjoy reading her story. I do check out her blog from time to time.
betty
Deanna congrats on your lovely win of a book. I will be checking out the link to her blog. Hang on for our wild weather ride!
This book looks really interesting. I'll have to check out her blog.
I'm sure that will be an interesting book. It's hard not to be intrigued by a lifestyle so natural and yet so foreign from our own. It would definitely be quite a journey from one to the other.
OK so why did she leave the Armish?
Oh wow congrats on your win, that sounds like it is going to be such a good read, I love reading about the Amish and how they live. Enjoy and I hope you and family are well HUGS
Congratulation on winning the book.
I started reading her blog a few weeks ago. I found it from your list of friends. Silly me...I didn't read the name of who won and I know of you! sigh...I should be more attentive.
Take care!

Deanne, I just discovered this... thank you! That is so nice of you to help spread the word about the book.
I've not had the time to read others' blogs, so pardon me on finding this so late.
Many Blessings,
Saloma
