Non-Readers, Beware! I just finished a book . . . Posted by Maureen Lang

The Writer-Reader Relationship posted by Maureen Lang

Authors Responding to Reviews? Posted by Maureen Lang
My daughter is an Amazon Vine Reviewer, meaning she’s earned the spot by reading and reviewing a great number of books. Every once in a while she receives a note from an author—usually short and sweet, thanking her for her … Continue reading
Reading Seasons?
Does the end of summer mean the end of the “beach read” season? I wondered about that when my daughter recently left for a brief vacation and instead of taking along the meatier, more literary novel our book club was … Continue reading
Reading Tastes Through The Ages, posted by Maureen Lang
Not long ago I was part of a discussion about how younger girls are often drawn to tragically romantic stories — Wuthering Heights, Titanic, Gone With the Wind to name a few. When I was a teen, Love Story was … Continue reading
Retold Classics, posted by Maureen Lang
This past month, my book club selected a title that was billed as being inspired by Nathaniel Hawthorne’s classic story, The Scarlett Letter. I admit I voted for the title, because the premise sounded fascinating. A modern day take on … Continue reading
Celebrate! Our Declaration of Independence, Posted by Maureen Lang

Top Ten Reading Spots
I’ve been a story-lover since I was very young, when my mother used to make up bedtime stories for my sister and me. I think my first passion for actual reading, though, was inspired by the Nancy Drew series. Although … Continue reading
Excellence and the Image of God
Recently I watched an old movie about Beethoven and found myself intrigued by the notion of God-given talent. How can it be that extraordinary genius can and often is at home in someone with no obvious commitment or connection to … Continue reading
Storytelling by Maureen Lang
Until the other day, I had no idea storytellers had national conventions. A friend of mine, a librarian, attended one and described to me what sounded similar to a writer’s conference. Workshops, speakers, opportunities to practice and improve their craft. … Continue reading

Two Faces of My Reading Life by Maureen Lang

What’s The Perfect Length?
I’ve heard it said that a well-written book is always too short and a poorly written one is always too long. Do you think that’s true? I admit that phrase reflects the way I feel. Right now I’m reading a … Continue reading

Is Reading Attached to your Happiness? by Maureen Lang
A friend of mine, author Sunni Jeffers, came across an interesting post that linked positive thinking to reading. Being an avid reader myself, it naturally made me wonder if I’m in a generally better frame of mind when I’m immersed … Continue reading
