Using story to connect YOU to the Master Storyteller

A HearthLand in Review

by Chautona Havig · 5 Comments

I wanted to take things back several episodes and give everyone a chance to catch up to where we are with HearthLand. So, this week, we’re going to give away Episodes 19 and 20. Episode 19 will be free all day today (Monday), and Episode 20 will be free tomorrow (Tuesday).

In Episode 19: Wedding plans have taken over HearthLand, and it seems almost everyone is getting into the spirit of things–to the delight of some and disapproval of others. Ralph has an idea to solve Annie’s problems, but she isn’t convinced. But just as everything seems right with the world, everything goes wrong.

In Episode 20: The vandalism doesn’t end with Kate and Janie’s place, and The Agency’s theory appears to be incomplete. The residents “mother” Ralph a bit as he endures forced “recuperation” and instead, drive him crazy.
Ramiro and Susannah talk to Kirk and things get dicey. Fireworks explode in several directions, and leave everyone wondering what sparks were ignited by them!

These episodes are my gift to you. It’s kind of a side “hobby” of mine, if you will. I enjoy bringing these characters to life, and you get to enjoy them for free on a weekly basis. I truly hope you enjoy them.

For those who are Kobo or Nook readers, email me.  I’ve got you covered.

    I’m trying to find the next part of Hearthland. You sent me links? Which were on my phone. So I’m hoping to get book 3. Can’t figure this out. I usually use my nook. Thanks for any help you can give me. Love Willow and need to keep following the story. Blessings and have a great day.

      Did you get them? I know I sent stuff the other day, but I was away from home, so I don’t trust the connection.

    I finished Prairie a couple of days ago and saw a sequel at the end. Will there be a sequel? I would love one, since I loved Prairie. There was one part of Prairie that I didn’t quite understand though. You said that Santa and the birth of Christ were intertwined. That bothered me since Santa is a lie, an inanimate being who takes away from the birth of Christ – and has, over time been given the attributes of God Himself, thus making him (Santa) a false god (rather than keeping him the man he had been originally patterned after Saint Nicholas, who simply gave gifts to the poor children.) Anyway, despite that, I loved the story and would love a sequel!

      That was kind of the point. She was trying to explain to people who had no cultural connection to “Santa” why he was connected to Jesus. She couldn’t do it. The fact that they are connected in her former culture (our culture) can’t be disputed (people even have Santa kneeling before Jesus in nativity sets to show the real balance of things). However, the point was that to people outside our culture who don’t know the origins and how they’ve shifted from respecting a godly man who tried to help the poor to something utterly unconnected with Christ it, would be confusing. And it was. And she didn’t really understand that it would be until she tried to do it. I guess the short version is, I agree with you. Santa and Jesus aren’t TRULY intertwined… but they are in our culture, and that’s something that we should be concerned with.

      And yes, I’m expecting to release the next book in the series (not really a sequel–more of a sister book) this year.

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 569: A Chat with Fayla Ott
byChautona Havig

Anyone who knows me knows I love a good heart-rending story, and To Fly on Broken Wings by Fayla Ott sounds like the best kind–one with hope even in the difficult things. Listen in and see why it reminds me of Patti Paige!

Oh, boy. No way can I not read this book ASAP!

To Fly on Broken Wings by Fayla Ott

Mississippi Delta, 1941

Lila Rose never expected life to offer her more than the quiet rhythm of cotton fields and small-town whispers. Raised in poverty and caring for an alcoholic father, she’s learned not to hope for much.

Then she meets Graham, a young pilot from one of Mississippi’s wealthiest families. Their unlikely love changes everything.

But when war tears them apart and Graham is reported killed in action, Lila believes the future she’d dreamed of has died with him. Determined to move forward, she remarries and begins building a new life.

Until Graham comes home.

Now the man she buried in her heart is standing before her, and the life she’s fought to rebuild hangs in the balance. Faced with an impossible choice between the love she lost and the promises she’s made, Lila must discover whether faith can guide her when every path leads to heartbreak.

To Fly on Broken Wings is a moving Christian historical novel about love, loss, impossible choices, and the quiet courage to trust God when the path ahead is anything but clear.

Learn more on Fayla’s WEBSITE and follow on GoodReads and BookBub.

The introduction to the Bookstrings series, Spines The introduction to the Bookstrings series, Spines & Leaves takes you near Joshua Tree National Park and a tiny bookstore desiccating in the heat. But Milton Coleridge and his love of books sees potential--and another kind of love. For someone else. Again. Still, with his trusty parrotlet Atticus (not Finch) by his side, he's turning his business skills in a new, more rewarding direction. Jump into the first Bookstrings novella today. Available in print, on Kindle (and Kindle Unlimited) and audiobook, as well as able to be listened to FREE on YouTube. https://amzn.to/3U2Smtn #affiliatelink

Can the small town of Berne support two bookstores Can the small town of Berne support two bookstores? Of course, not. Does that stop Anne Montgomery from opening one practically next door to the other one? It does not. Their friendship may be dead, but nothing will stop her from running her dream bookstore. And... she got the prime location. It's perfect!
Except it isn't. If something doesn't change, she'll flop faster than this year's over-hyped novel. After much pleading (and some interfering), Milton and his trusty parrotlet, Atticus (not Finch) arrive to help.
Book two in the Bookstrings series (aside from the two prequel novellas), Clock Tower Bound is available in print, on Kindle (and Kindle Unlimited), and coming soon to audiobook (and @ChristaDelSorbo's) YouTube Channel (where you can listen free!).

A tiny bookstore in an equally tiny town? Sure. Wh A tiny bookstore in an equally tiny town? Sure. Why not. Joshua Hart is determined to make it a success--to share his love of reading with his community. And it will... if the crazy baker (with the amazing cinnamon rolls) across the street will quit blocking his store's existence with her behemoth of a vehicle pointing everyone to those (yes, totally amazing but come on!) cinnamon rolls!
It's a battle royale and a bit of loathe-to-love all rolled into one town fighting to stay alive. Milton and Atticus do their part to reframe his business plan into something that'll work... and yeah. They're doing that matchmaking thing. Can you blame them? With a name like Honey, she's got to be perfect for him.
