News About The Miting: An Old Order Amish Novel and The Amish: Shunning

Update about my book, The Miting: An Old Order Amish novel: It is ready for pre-orders at most Christian Parable bookstores online, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and ChristianBookDistributers. It is being prepared for a late winter/early spring of 2014 release! It's pretty exciting to be this close to publication, but the waiting is difficult.

In other news, a film featuring Joe Keim of Mission to Amish People and many of my former Amish friends is scheduled to be aired by PBS American Experience on February 4, 2014. The film, The Amish: Shunned, continues the story of the Amish by focusing on what happens to folks who leave the Amish. I've been told some of the story will show scenes filmed at my house in 2012. I'm looking forward to that presentation, too! Here is a video clip from that documentary:

Stay tuned for further updates concerning my book and this video. Thanks, readers, for keeping up with things here in my neck of the woods. Your interest and support is greatly appreciated!
