A Merry Christmas Giveaway

Posted on December 4, 2015 by Katie Ganshert

It’s my favorite time of year: advent season. A time of reflection. A time of expectancy. A time to celebrate the birth of hope. And also …

A time to give gifts!

Here’s the first of TWO gifts I’ll be giving away to my amazing readers this month. (Stay tuned for gift number two, which will accompany something I’m REALLY passionate about.)

As for now, let’s focus on gift number one, shall we? Which is …

All four of my full-length Katie Ganshert novels. And I’m not just giving away one set. But three!

How do you enter to win, you might ask.

Simple. Check out the rafflecopter below.

A Christmas Gift Special

Posted on October 29, 2015December 6, 2015 by Katie Ganshert

I’ve had some readers asking about a box set to give as Christmas gifts this year! While these won’t come in a box, they WILL come autographed and tied with a pretty bow.

A $40 value for only $25 – the perfect gift for the avid readers in your life! Teens are loving the series, and so are the adults. Ladies, and the dudes. It’s all inclusive over here.

I’ll take orders until Monday, November 15th. I want to give myself enough cushion to place the large book order, get them all signed, and off in the mail by early December, before the mail gets too crazy during the busy holiday season. If you’re interested, please send an email to katie@katieganshert.com. Let me know how many full sets you want to purchase, who you want me to sign each set to, and your mailing address. Once I have, I’ll send you an invoice, which will allow you to pay via paypal or check.

Happy reading!

Release Day Giveaway

Posted on October 20, 2015October 20, 2015 by Katie Ganshert

You guys. Two firsts happened for me today!

One. I have an Amish novella out in the world. An Amish novella, y’all.

I’ve written all my life. Actually, not really. It feels like I’ve written all my life. As soon as I figured out how to string words together on a page, I wrote, wrote, wrote. Stories I rarely finished, but would read out loud to my parents and my Aunt Peggy. Bless their hearts for listening.

Never in all my life, though, did I consider making one of those stories an Amish story.

Until I was invited to participate in a cool-sounding project with some authorly friends (waving to Cindy, Mindy, and Amanda) and my intrigued little heart couldn’t say no. I love trying new things and this was definitely new. And so, not only did I contribute my novella (Guiding Star) to the mix, I also wrote the prologue and the epilogue. It was great fun.

Two. I have a Christmas novella out in the world.

Granted, the Amish novella and the Christmas novella are one in the same. But still, it’s my first official Christmas story and you know what? I think it won’t be my last. I’m a fan of Christmas.

You know what’s also kind of fun?

Fans of my first two novels (Wildflowers from Winter and Wishing on Willows) will recognize one of the settings. Peaks makes a cameo, along with a couple characters readers should recognize. I won’t say who. You have to read to find out! #ohthetorture

To celebrate these two fun firsts, how about a giveaway?

(Since I’m too cheap to upgrade my Rafflecopter account, I can’t get the giveaway to start any earlier than midnight, October 21st, so if you’re reading this ahead of time, make sure to check back in!)
