Good storyteller! And I've meet her in person too at a few reading events. She's very gracious! Highly recommend her work too! Thanks for supporting her. :)marunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18628978.post-16685802289437606752011-05-02T00:03:12.318-07:002011-05-02T00:03:12.318-07:00Hey Matt, glad you and Gina connected at the Faith...Hey Matt, glad you and Gina connected at the Faith & Culture Conference- It was great to have you both there as speakers- she is the next Flannery O'Connor- hey, I'd also read Gina's other books-the Necessary Grace to Fall and People I wanted to be-her short story collections... <br /><br />see you soon, writer friend, CorneliaCornelia Seigneurhttp://www.corneliaseigneur.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18628978.post-89702497928341568292011-04-25T23:12:19.907-07:002011-04-25T23:12:19.907-07:00I just finished Roald Dahl's autobiographical ...I just finished Roald Dahl's autobiographical Boy--Tales of Childhood (which was rather heartbreaking) and Going Solo, which was possibly the most adventure-packed book I ever read, fiction or non.<br /><br />I too ran out and bought Gina Ochsner's novel right after the conference, but I haven't started it yet. It's my reward for finishing a project. That and Stephen King's On Writing, which is also in my stack.Gypmarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13938773894831848124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18628978.post-74207220715535866152011-04-22T09:14:35.985-07:002011-04-22T09:14:35.985-07:001.

Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson- which apparently is under a bit of scrutiny and is partly fabricated. To avoid disappointment I will read the second half of the book with the mindset that it's a John Grisham novel<br /><br />3. The Gospel for Muslims by Thabiti Anabywale - so far one of the best books I've read on the subject. Theologically strong and very informative.<br /><br />4. I just finished the 12th Imam by Joel Rosenberg. I haven't put it back on the bookshelf just yet. But I need to clear space for Night of the Living Dead Christians.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15028777766692518918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18628978.post-79145103508385754742011-04-22T07:59:24.150-07:002011-04-22T07:59:24.150-07:00I just finished Vinegar Hill by A.
