This is the 9th month in the Year of the Reader!
If you are a fan of my blog I know you are a READER!
So this year I will be randomly choosing a
Fan of the Month!
Not only will this help me get to know you better but it will help the readers get to know each other better. You may find someone that likes the same authors, books, genres you do. You may “meet” someone that enjoys the same hobbies or is in a similar line of work. They may be someone you want to follow on Social Media.
I am excited to introduce of September’s Fan of the Month!

This is a picture of myself with one of my favorite writers, Amanda Flower aka Isabella Allen
. I’m the one in the pink top.
Tell us a little bit about yourself – I am semi-retired church secretary due to health issues. My family consists of my husband, Roy, for the last 30 years as of August 24th, my two children, Rachel Leigh, 28 and my son, Rhett Lyndon, 27. As stated before prior to retiring, I was a church secretary and secretary to the Pastor. My son is Autistic and my daughter struggles with a learning disability. Being a hands on mom, I have learned a lot about dealing with both. Our family also consists of two cats. My cat, Romeo Luigi, who is all black with some Siamese traits. My daughter’s cat, Ralphie Lee is an orange tabby with Maine Coon mix. Of course this is my grand-furbaby.
Where is your favorite place to curl up and Escape into a Good Book? When I am ready to curl up with a good book and a sweet peach tea, I am usually in my husband’s recliner when he isn’t home. The mystery bug hit me when I was introduced to Lillian Jackson Braun‘s The Cat Who
series.
Do you have a favorite author, book or series? As you see by the picture Amanda Flower aka Isabella Allen is one of my favorite authors. Her series about the Amish Quilt Shop as well as her Appleseed Creek
series are both wonderful. Another favorite is Joyce and Jim Lavene
. Their cozy mystery series are many and each one is even better than the last. Cozy mysteries as well as cookbooks hold my fascination and my heart. Kathi Daley
, Dianne Harmann,
Joanne Fluke
, Diane Mott Davidson
and many other have all filled my interests.
How long have you been a Fan of Escape with Dollycas into a Good Book? I have followed Escape with Dollycas for at least 2-3 years. I enjoy your introduction of various author’s and then also the book reviews. There are so many new authors and books published each month and through the service you offer it is nice to be able to get a heads up and determine the ones I might be interested in.
Is there anything else you would like us to share? I am also an amateur jewelry maker and love to try new recipes.
Once thing I would like to get across to fellow readers is if you enjoy an author and their books, do them a great service by leaving a review. Through reviews others may choose to read their books.
