But Leslie did take a research trip to Indiana while writing the third book in this series, The Amish Bride, (which will be out this summer) so maybe they were talking about her. <br /><br />For anyone interested in co-authoring, you might also check out my article "Collaborating while Cohabitating: A Survivor's Guide," in the latest issue of Christian Fiction Online Magazine. It's about the experience of penning Echoes of Titanic with my husband and the lessons we learned in the process.<br /><br />All three of my co-writing relationships are completely unique, but each one is great fun and very rewarding in its own way. Go figure--this from a woman who NEVER thought she would enjoy the co-writing process! Nowadays, it's my favorite way to write.<br /><br />Anyway, thanks for the fun interview, Susan!Mindy Starns Clarkhttp://www.mindystarnsclark.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252285009517721143.post-41773097405047595522012-03-02T08:11:51.744-05:002012-03-02T08:11:51.744-05:00Hi Leslie -

Writing can be a lonely business, day-to-day, so collaborating adds a totally new dimension. I've really been blessed by it and by Mindy--she was too modest in this interview. <br /><br />Thank you, Susan, for promoting The Amish Midwife!Leslie Gouldhttp://www.lesliegould.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252285009517721143.post-6314495643654399402012-03-01T20:23:55.879-05:002012-03-01T20:23:55.879-05:00Hi Karen -

I too agree not just anyone could co-author--it would take similar personalities and writing styles I think,Terri Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07771622379178654235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252285009517721143.post-58263596685296549662012-02-29T12:40:09.455-05:002012-02-29T12:40:09.455-05:00Great interview, Susan and Mindy!

I think it would take just the right relationship to co-write a book.<br /><br />Btw, Mindy, I met an Amish family in northern Indiana who mentioned you may have visited friends of theirs as part of your research. I believe it was your name they said, but I may be mistaken?Sarah Forgravehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09101753891967001104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252285009517721143.post-23538556046159750572012-02-29T05:15:52.719-05:002012-02-29T05:15:52.719-05:00Thanks for this interview Susan, love the 2-part d...Thanks for this interview Susan, love the 2-part deal :) and how interesting... another co-authorship.Marja Verschoor-Meijershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06475263793581289701noreply@blogger.com
