    Hey, thanks for the response. Also liked Summer of Pearls (?) - nice little 'coming of age' story. I first heard him: the West of You CD was playing in my local used book store . . . nice cowboy ballads. Then I started reading him. Loved Shortgrass.

    Thanks for accepting my offer of friendship Ben! I've written a book series you might enjoy. "How Do You Know He’s Real?" features the testimonies of more than 100 actors, recording artists and athletes who share how their faith has impacted their lives in the spotlight.

    You can read excerpts and see the list of participants on my website, www.amyhagberg.com.

    Looking forward to getting to know you, and Happy New Year!

    Sorry it took me so long to respond. I've been busy and neglected this site for a while. You can visit my website to not only find out about my books, but read the first chapter of each for free. If you like them you can go to my link to my publisher to purchase. I'd love to hear from any reader about what they think of the books. Good or bad. Thanks for being a friend.
