Announcement & Giveaway

As 2021 comes to an end, I feel especially grateful for the Historical Bookworm Show. When we started out, there were a lot of unknowns, and it required some faith to start this show from the ground up. 

Thank you, listeners, for your time and support of the authors we have on the show. And, a special thanks to all the authors who have given of their time and hearts to be here. 

We wanted to let you all know we will be taking the months of January and February off for personal reasons. Our plan is to be back in March with new books and more wonderful authors.

To celebrate a successful year, we are giving away free books! That’s right, we are running a giveaway for the month of January. Three winners will each get to choose a book that we featured on the Historical Bookworm Show in 2021.

Thank you again for listening!

In the words of Charles Dickens,  “…may the New Year be a happy one to you, happy to many more whose happiness depends on you!”

I am so pleased to share this amazing giveaway with you.

Thank you, Lori, for your giving heart!

And, what a joy it was to speak with Lori! I was so blessed and amazed when working on editing episode 18 that I picked out this quote from Lori.

 
“I would like to invite readers to continue with Ian and Shauna and the new characters that they’ll meet in Shiloh and just taking the full picture of restoration that, that this entire story presents God is not through with these characters, just like he isn’t finished with us.”

If you haven’t had the chance to listen to Lori’s interview, please take this opportunity. It’s Episode 18: Guest Lori Benton & a Review of Carved in Stone by Elizabeth Camden.
