Readers liked the “old-fashioned” small snippets (episodes) that Charles Dickens made popular years ago. A 300+ page novel was too overwhelming, but broken into parts, a delight. If you’d like to read the complete series, set from winter-spring, the women hovering over classic books while knitting, you can purchase Amish Knit Lit Smicksburg Tales 3 now. From winter to spring, Granny and her circle, now consisting of Amish and English friends, knit for the homeless and discuss books. As these women reach out into their community, they share what they've learned. Missy Prissy, a snobby rich woman, reads A Christmas Carol, but will it change her Scrooge heart? Mona reads Black Beauty and images of past abuse haunt her dreams and this could not possibly be a good thing, or is it? Visions of romance dance in the women's heads, too. After reading Pride & Prejudice, they swoon over Mr. Darcy telling Elizabeth, "You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you." Marriage problems come to the forefront, but will they be swept under the rag rug? Some readers are participating in Granny's circle in the comfort of their homes, not having to travel to Smicksburg. If you'd like to read these classic books along with the women in the circle, here's Granny's reading Pride & Prejudice, Jane Austen Little Women, Louis May Alcott Anne of Green Gables, Lucy Maud Montgomery A Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens The Life of our Lord, Charles Dickens Emma, Jane Austen Black Beauty, Anna Sewell Pilgrim's Progress, John Bunyan The Secret Garden, Frances Hodgson Burnett

Amish Knitting Circle was birthed when Trestle Press asked Suzanne Woods Fisher to write an Amish serial, and she referred them to me. Thank you Suzanne. I write full-length novels and short story serials. I hope readers will learn a lot about Amish culture and traditions, and realize you don't have to be Amish to live a simple life.

An authentic Amish recipe is at the end of each edition. Knit Together: An Amish Knitting Novel, is a complete book. Granny Weaver starts a knitting circle that's half Amish and half not. As they meet and knit and talk, they end up unifying the town made of two different cultures: Amish and English. I'm a graduate from Seton Hill University and Andersonville Theological Seminary.
