Beachy, Stephen. The Voice of Q. Amish Terror Book 4. San Diego: Vapor Books, 2021. I catch up on Beachy’s queer speculative fiction Amish Terror series whenever I can, so I just bought what is theoretically the penultimate book of the series (though it was originally going to be a trilogy, so who knows?). Hinz-Penner,Continue reading “Books Acquired Recently: Mennonite Edition”

Writing Activity, January 2023
Since January 2021, I’ve been keeping a list of my writing activity for each month (here’s last month’s).

Books Acquired Recently: Canadian Mennonite Edition
Books published in Canada have been much harder to acquire in the U.S. since the pandemic started. Shipping fees have gone through the roof. But there are a few recent Mennonite books that I’ve been wanting to buy, so I made an order from McNally Robinson that arrived earlier this week. Brandt, Di. The SweetestContinue reading “Books Acquired Recently: Canadian Mennonite Edition”

Books Acquired Recently: Mennonite/s Writing Edition
This past weekend I attended the ninth Mennonite/s [sic] Writing conference. It was held at my alma mater, Goshen College, so I got to see some good friends in a nostalgic setting. Of course I bought lots of books at the excellent bookfair, which was arranged by Fables Books. Beck, Ervin. Joe Wright (1879-1972): GoshenContinue reading “Books Acquired Recently: Mennonite/s Writing Edition”
