Elizabeth Maddrey is a semi-reformed computer geek and homeschooling mother of two who lives in the suburbs of Washington D.C. When she isn’t writing, Elizabeth is a voracious consumer of books. She loves to write about Christians who struggle through their lives, dealing with sin and receiving God’s grace on their way to their own romantic happily ever after.
I can’t wait to read Becky Wade’s new book!
It’s so good!
This blog introduced me to Becky Wade so it will be great to hear her on storychats.
Happy Sunday to you all.
I just read Memory Lane last month and had such a good time, can’t wait to get to Rocky Road :)
Good morning , I am looking forward to this! Have a Blessed Sunday and a great week.
Oh yay! Her books are so good.
I loved Rocky Road even more than Memory Lane, and I really loved Memory Lane!
Becky Wade books are always so good!
You too!
Have a good week last week I was babysitting my young nephews age 2.5 and 1 Monday thru Thursday so was very busy week.
Thank you!
They are!
Oh boy! Busy!
Wishing everyone a wonderful week!
I enjoyed Storychats and learning more about Becky Wade. Can you read book 2 without reading book one. Considering spoilers were given for book one .
Also I am really sad Christian Romance Reader Gathering is closing. I have loved this fb group as most authors didn’t do the hard sell when they hosted a week. Many just mentioned books but it wasn’t all about buying books. Thanks to the group I read my first Liwen Ho books and have bought more since, Same with Toni Shiloh and a few other authors. I actually found it even better to get to know the authors because we had a week of questions and learning about the author. Where as the blog its once a month and its a slower way to learn about an author. It is one of the better reader groups I am in on fb (several I left) because it doesn’t do the hard sell and its focused on readers and its readers who interact. some groups like avid are set as reader groups but often if a reader asks a reader question its authors who answer and they have a different view to someone who is Soley a reader.
I’m loving the Birthday Bash sets!! I’ll admit I’m not a fan of audio books, but man, those ebooks and paperbacks are great!!! So sorry for your loss, Elizabeth. You and your family are in my prayers and thoughts. I’m really sad to know Inspy is shutting down, but I’m consoling myself with stalking all of you, and knowing that there will be still be books coming from all of you!!!
I also wanted to let you know I praying for you and your family. (after your newsletter about your sister being in hospice)
Hope everyone has a great week!
Happy Sunday
To you as well!
It is definitely bittersweet to be closing everything down.
Thank you for praying. She went home to Jesus on Valentine’s Day.
Thank you. And yes! We’re still around, just not in one place.
And you!
Thank you. I hope you are having a a good Sunday as well.
Will continue praying
I didn’t do anything for Valentine’s day but a few people brought treats to share at work, which was nice.
Happy 10th Anniversary. I am sad about the blog leaving, but I understand it is time to move on. Sending hugs and love to all. Have a wonderful week. Thank you for all you are doing for the Birthday Bash. God bless you.
Sounds like a great lindeup.
Have a good week all!
Ohh, excited to read the new books!
Have a blessed week!
We didn’t do anything for Valentine’s day this year as funds are very low.
Have a great week everyone.
Those prizes look awesome! Thank you for the chance, and congrats on 10 years!!
Love your website!
Happy Valentine’s Day, Inspy authors!
