Stories from the Promised Land Large Print Edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798343220988)

Hi! I'm Jessie Gussman and I get emails all the time from people who spewed their coffee/half-chewed toast/cereal out all over their e-reader.

Or who woke up their spouse while reading my newsletter because they were laughing so hard.

Or who save my emails until they get home from work because they don't have the kind of job where howling and rolling on the floor is acceptable conduct.

But not every story in this book is laugh-out-loud funny.

Some of them will make you cry.

Some will make you think.

And some of them will make you shake your head and wonder how in the world someone like me has made it through life without being put in a straight jacket and carted away.

Not even close. I get paid to write love stories.

Lol Life is weird, I agree.

I'm a wife, mother and farmer by day, romance novelist by night and in my spare time, I write about my life from prison.

Kidding about the prison part. (At the time of this writing, anyway. No one has figured out if there was actually a body in the car that's buried in my dad's back yard - that story's in the book, along with the time I caught myself on fire and my kid was laughing too hard to blow me out, how to charge a 1600 pound, angry mama cow (and why you'd want to), odd Amish courting rituals (involving frogs), and how not to fall out of your husband's Peterbilt as he's driving down the interstate.)

There is a lot of faith, family and fun in my fiction books, and WARNING: my real life has a ton of all that, too.

But life on the farm is not always fun. Sometimes it's hard and sometimes it hurts and those stories are in here, too.

Thanks so much for choosing to spend a little time with me today!

Love,

Jessie
