The Promise of Acorns Audiobook
This is a quick note to say that, just in time for Thanksgiving, The Promise of Acorns is now available as an audiobook! I've been spreading the word on other media and almost forgot to mention it on my blog. I'm grateful to J. Grace Pennington and her incredible narration for bringing my Thanksgiving novella to Audible listeners.

| I have mixed feelings about this book, but my overall impression is of the beauty and power of the writing. Emily Lawless's descriptive style immersed me fully into the world of nineteenth-century Inishmaan, from the barren, rocky gray landscape to t ...more | |

| 3.5 stars. Rather like a fairy tale ... sentimental and saccharine, but a very good and sweet story nonetheless. Well-defined characters, overall lighthearted, with an uplifting plot and a realistic character arc for the Earl. Cedric was too good to ...more | |

I LOVED this book. It was such an uplifting read to begin the year. It's my favorite book by Gene Stratton-Porter, and one of my top 100 favorite books. Much of it hit the spot for me: the detailed writing, the beautiful nature description, the well-d ...more |

“That’s just it. She’s in the state of mind that will think the worst of everybody,” Emma said. “And basically, that’s exactly what we’re trying to reverse. It’s a vicious cycle.”
“God does the reversing.” It was sudden, I hadn’t thought of it that way before, but after it left my lips it brought me a load of comfort.
Emma paused what she was doing and looked at me. “You know, that’s exactly right. Only God can change a heart. I suppose we can help, but it has to be all up to Him.”
― Family Reunion

“Marion stared into his face. “Thank you.” She blinked back sudden tears. “Mr. Bradley, you’re swell. You’ve helped my family so much, and I never appreciated it before.”
“Thank you.” Mr. Bradley returned her look, intensely. “I care for all of you. You’re some of the best people I’ve ever known.”
Marion smiled and mumbled, “Mr. Sour-face.”
“What was that?”
“Nothing!” She grinned wider.
He smiled back. It was a nice smile.”

“No pressuring them, Aunt Jennie,” Marion admonished with a straight face but laughing eyes. “They don’t like being hurried. They’re likely to baulk like mules and wait until they’re thirty.”
“Jeepers, I hope not!” Frances cried, halting her knife and fork’s work at some beef. “I’m tired of waiting and guessing their intentions. I’ve been doing that for seven months. I just want to see them married!”
Everett grinned. “So do I.”

“A house divided against itself cannot stand. There is no middle road, no 'white' sin. One is either for God or against Him - there is no compromise between His holiness and the works of spiritual darkness.”

“Sword rang on sword, the metallic sounds echoing throughout the wide market place and filling the crannies of every dark alley. Strength waged against strength, as, indeed, rivals of evil have ever-battled the adversaries of truth. The face of one combatant appeared cool and certain, the other passionate in his resolve, intent upon seeing the battle through and winning the day with valor...”

“Then all at once there was a flutterment and a scufflement and a loud "Squeak!"
The other squirrels scuttered away into the bushes.
When they came back very cautiously, peeping round the tree--there was Old Brown sitting on his door-step, quite still, with his eyes closed, as if nothing had happened.
But Nutkin was in his waistcoat pocket!
This looks like the end of the story; but it isn't.”

“Travis straightened himself into soldierly erectness. The weariness of his countenance melted into chiseled resolve, tightening his chin. “I stay here to defend the Alamo. And, for those who will also choose to stay, I know that, although they may be sacrificed to the vengeance of a Gothic enemy, the victory will cost the enemy so dear that it will be worse for him than a defeat.”
